He does not know. TM initiators nor TM deep insiders have revealed any authentic textual or lineal source for the TM mantras. In fact we now know that Maheshiji held no lineage at all. Although one possibility is they could be from meditative experiences he had while in the presence of SBS. That would account for both their lack of textual basis and the fact that Mahesh, after a certain point began to refer to himself as a Maharishi (a very exalted claim). But I think that would be grasping at straws, and I do not recall ever hearing such a claim. One initiator here made the very reasonable claim that he simply applied different shaktis to different, traditional (tantric) stages of human development. So, for example, you'd give saraswati mantras during the learning phase of ones life, different ones later.
