As I've written here on this forum numerous times before: ever since Maharishi's "we are satisfied" response to a journalist's question about what he thought about people learning TM outside the movement (from about 2003 during one of those press conferences), my feelings are: if that's what people want to do and if Maharishi's satisfied, well then, who the hell am I to complain. But you asked me whether I would consider teaching outside of the movement, not how I felt about others doing it. I answered you that I didn't feel comfortable and if and when I ever wanted to teach TM I would do it within the auspices of the TM Movement. And I still feel that way. If you have a problem with it, too fucking bad. > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Vaj <vajradhatu@> wrote: > > > > > > ...having been bitten by the TMO as an unrecertified teacher wanting > > > to share the teaching you preserve through your practice?
