As I noted, no TMer ever uttered that bullshit; that's Barry's bullshit. What some of us *have* pointed out is that while the TMO did say one would be able to fly after taking the course (at least prior to the requirement to sign a "no guarantees" understanding when applying), it didn't say *how long* after. IOW, as far as I'm aware, it has never said one would walk out of the course being able to fly (or perform any other of the siddhis). The time frame was always left undefined. I can't read the small print on the poster to the left. The poster on the right describes hopping, albeit misleadingly, and refers to it as "levitation" (on the grounds that hopping is the "first stage" of levitation): "Highly developed mind-body coordination verified by direct experience of LEVITATION--command of the law of gravity whereby the body lifts up, moves forward and gently touches down--inner experience of great freedom and bliss, release of deep stress." But the above doesn't actually say one will be able to do what it describes, much less hover or fly at will, much less be able to do it upon leaving the course. (It isn't even a complete sentence--there's no verb.) I'd be really surprised if that very careful wording hadn't been decreed by movement lawyers.
