This is an officially "off the record" moment, related to me over dinner by Nancy Cooke de Herrrera herself, before the release of The Beatles' "White Album." So it wasn't even "in response" to "Bungalo Bill" that she volunteered this information. It was her choosing to tell this to me (a mere acquaintance of her son who had set up the first TM course in Eugene, Oregon, which she had chosen to teach because it allowed her to write off on her taxes a visit to her son). Interesting woman, one who I am sure has some redeeming qualities if one gets to know her long enough. I had only five days.
