Big deal.
Even if, as a result of the research study, it comes out as a
positive thing to do TM, who trusts the TMO anymore? Heck, I'm a 36
year regular meditator and even I don't trust their research...
Schneider has a history of TM "research" quackery. He's a TB doing
research on a product he's addicted to, and a Cardiologist.
As is usual with the TMO, they've already decided what the results
are. They just need to mash the numbers so they get a positive study
that jives with their desires. As is also usual, I predict there will
be inadequate controls.
