It's true the lexicon is almost entirely absent. This is what makes the Ved & Physiology course so interesting to have come out post-humus. It is 'chakric' in essence once you get past the heavy physiology text of the narrative that leads it. And past the way that Aleric and Cynthia teach it with the aggressive attack on other techniques and yet dial back to the essential technique offered of how to use 'attention' to 'enliven' the physiology. The course as taught is mostly over-burdened with defending the TM preparatory lecture the way they present the course. Is interesting that M never really taught this in practice yet set this course with its employment of 'attention' in motion. Seems he was always experimenting and coming to things as a teacher himself. Seems this energetic work must have come to him in time at the end. > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Buck" wrote: > > > > To be truthful, the same thing could happen with Transcendental Meditation > > in the wrong physiology or unsupervised. > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "shukra69" <shukra69@> wrote: > > > > > > http://www.jcrows.com/trogawa_mentaldisorders.html > > > > > > Meditation practitioners of tummo4 should know that they are apt to > > > intensify srog-adzin-rlung, �the life-grasping wind,� in > > > their body, so they need to be careful and practice correctly.
