I don't know about american law,and if this constitutes a fraud in the eyes of the law. But if anyone wants to sue the TM for this, they better hurry up, as long as there is still a TMO around. I don't know if the leading class of the TMO knows how late it is. Fast, very fast the current administration is approching ultimate nirvana, with not much coming behind.Think 10 or 15 years ahead of time, there won't be much of the TMO left, there are very few youngsters, and - well the school kids, but exactly where will they be, and how much they will stand behind the whole project has to be still seen. Therefore, to make TM again acceptable to a broader audience is not an issue that has a lot of time to wait for. I am not saying, that if you resolve the whole saint issue, the TM movement will be saved, of course not. But it is one of those symptomatic things, where the TMO has to change, in order to be again more accessable, and less cultish, if it wants to ever survive. > This "oversight," combined with a present-day policy > that says and enforces just that, could probably be > seen as constituting fraud on the part of the TMO.

Yes, the policy would go overnight. It is already clear, that to the TMO, not the single sidha/governor matters, who sits in the dome and has just seen a saint. No, it is the talking about it, that matters to them. If you lie and keep quiet, you are a good boy/girl, the problem is really the effect it has on the others, who get to know about it. They are fearing this kind of collective thing. But then, if they could be more liberal, more grandious, more self-aware, they would do much better. I doubt this will be the case, and nobody on the top position has the guts to change anything. They are busy, but they just keep themselves busy like any administration.
