I don't think it is all that difficult to make a teaching simple
including explaining it to people. TM spoke in lofty terms. For most
people just talk about relaxation from a busy life through meditation.
No need to speak about moksha, enlightenment at all. Just teach a
simple technique. Three are groups who teach that way. And for folks
interested in more of an Indian yoga approach there are indeed groups
who cater to that. No one shoe fits all.

The point is that TM is rather a "has been." Back in the 1970s it was
novel because westerners didn't know much about yoga and meditation.
Since then there has been a explosion in that knowledge and a "shake
out" as to what is relevant and what isn't.
Take a look around and you'll mainly find organizations teaching
meditation over the weekend in a few short sessions prices ranging
from free to $120 (very typical) to $400 (more extras). Not all of
them are even saying people "must" practice meditation every day
either. Actually once you get CC then then consciousness will keep
developing without meditation though the latter might speed things up
a bit.

Good work! You managed to send a message on company time at work.
Very impressive! Now, about that Rama levitation event...

For those who thought my citation of
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megalomania was too
strong, try to "step back" from all your decades of
programming and look at the above.
Buck seems to believe that we're now in a "new
millennium," clearly due to the influence of a few
butt-bouncers in a small town in the backwaters of
Iowa. He further seems to believe that the made-up
titles and positions of "Trustee" or "Council" actually
*mean* something. He feels so strongly that the view
of life and the world propounded by these made-up
organizations is so important as to be capitalized as
"Knowledge."
He then goes on to call a guy whose real name is
Tony Nader by another made-up name ("Nader Ram")
and suggests another made-up title and position for
him, " Maha administrator sovereign of TM."
Try, just for a moment, to look at all of this without
all the decades of TM conditioning. If you encountered
someone on the street talking like this, wouldn't you
consider them a candidate for megalomania?
Just sayin'...
