You're speaking to deaf ears, Bhairitu. Mainly because you are speaking to grown men and women who are still terrified of speaking their mantras alound for fear that Bad Things would happen to them. :-) There can never be any "mantra science" in TM because that would violate the holy "Thou shalt never speak thy mantra aloud" rule. We are talking about a group of people who have been trained to be so incurious as to have never wondered what the mantra they think to themselves hundreds of times a day was intended to do to them. Sometimes I think that Maharishi's ability to convince otherwise smart people to adhere to stupid behavior was so great that he could have given everyone the mantra "gullible" and after 30 years they would never have noticed its English meaning. :-)
