There are times when reading FFL is like reading a forum on which most people's education stopped at the sixth grade. This is one of those times. Just because you were told something 'way back when doesn't make it true. I find it mind-boggling that people are still so attached to the "effortlessness" meme that they are still willing to defend it as if it were true. *Especially* when they do so in the face of state- ments from Maharishi himself saying that the reality is more like "minimal effort." Where's the problem with admitting that you were given a gross oversimplification aimed at novices originally, and that later, when pinned down on the issue, even Maharishi admitted that it *was* a gross oversimplification? Are you that attached to everything you were told originally being true, or Truth?
