MJ, good question. Like many meditators I am a practitioner and not necessarily a devotee. In groups meditators commonly go where the field effect of shakti is of the greatest benefit. [natural tendency]. Like most I look to the TM movement just to facilitate my meditation and to providing a group meditation. Nothing more. Evidently I am much more in line with Brahmananda Saraswati [Guru Dev] than most any of the TM movement now on this. All wishing for the Maharishi-TM movement is that they would do a better job of facilitating the group program and the Meissner Effect of group meditation. They have failed miserably at that and for that by good science the leadership should be held accountable for as a crime against humanity. Look back at any of the glossy TM publications for the last 40 years and it is the same guys in the thumbnail photos in charge. The obviously discouraging thing verified recently when the Prime Minister answered questions last month live in Fairfield is that he was unchanged. Was a sinking feeling for the TM movement and all that the re-certs are valiantly trying to do bringing TM back watching him lead that so-called community meeting particularly where he shut up the only person in the room starting to bring up substantial points around communal fear, lack of transparency, and the TM anti-saint policy. It must be very discouraging for the progressive Hagelin-ites trying to re-ignite a meditating movement dealing with Bevan the stick in the mud when Bevan holds the trump cards. Actually I know it is. Everyone from the top down is waiting for the fat guy to retire or die. The black camel kneeling thing. When that happens like in all post-charismatic movements sensible things can get done by corporate consensus afterwords. There is a lot of precedent in history for that. But then TM'ers don't study history to know, I am just a journalist. However, I still like this YouTube clip the best to see what is going on in TM now. It is very exciting. Of course skip the advertisement in the beginning but see it through to the finish: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSl-6aC6GEQ Spoiler: spot Orb to the end! -Buck > > > ________________________________ > From: Buck > To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com > Sent: Wednesday, July 24, 2013 3:27 PM > Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Not All TM'ers Welcome > > > > Â > Dear MJ; Yur evidently being jaded such by the past bad behavior of TM and > its leaders, MJ given the science and experience of meditation now I am > concerned that you are not in a group meditating.
