Ah, THE CORRECTOR Defense: "You can't know the truth like I do because you're not *special* the way I am." :-) As for Lynch, the only thing I can contribute to the discussion is that I suspect Bhairitu is right on this one. And it's not just that he hasn't ever looked much further than his nose...he *can't*. Before she died, I corresponded for a while with a lovely woman who was Lynch's private secretary for many years. She loved the guy, but was up-front about his many...uh...quirks. She described him as "borderline obsessive compulsive" and as "the most habit-bound and incurious person I've ever met." Lynch eats the same thing every day, and has for decades now. Not just the same meals at the same times...the exact same foods. Is a person that rigid in their thinking and their habits going to be likely to *ever* rethink the TM movement? Just sayin'... I admire that his obsession focuses on the basic TM technique and teaching it. I wish he didn't have to work through the TM movement to teach it. But he does, and thus he is placed in the position of using his idealized good intentions to try to "legitimize" an organization that does not deserve to be legitimized.
