Try to do your research and see all (from what I've seen) people's negative research saying it's just relaxing or the negatives to are are full of shit. They don't do their research, their out to fuck it. I agree that Maharishi and some people are probally negative in life and do negative things but If you're trying your best to be positive and honest in your nature then I'm sure these things wouldn't happen. Probally a build up of stress (go figure). > aging monks, etc., etc.? Which is negative, the ones having people > meditate till the point of mental illness or the ones pointing it out? Since millions of people practice the technique I can hardly see why it would hurt people as there are (once again, from what I've seen and read about, you're not the only skeptic) very rare cases of these people. However, this should be studies more; why are people getting hurt? > Actually you come across like a cult zombie, so maybe you're the > negative one, you're just so deluded you cannot see it?

Intersting I'll look into it. My guess is people are taught that it's not okay to be negative, and that alone is stressfull as you're not getting rid of you're negativity. As I learned in physcology, there are two fundemental motivators in life: agressiveness and sex. Maybe repressing this to the expreme is bad. That's my guess. I'll definately look into that more and ask the PHDs around campus what they know about that (pun intended). > Perhaps you're right and TM should be banned from human nervous > systems... I don't think so as it helped me out, truly. With me being content all the time, which sometimes get a little non-emotional. Maybe those Kundalini and chakras mattered after all!
