I got it - I didn't think of it from that point of view - thanks Barry - I had
just not seen the items my buddy Bill put together quite that way. I think it
is a good POV and info to present to those who are thinking of doing TM - I
have to admit that is still a concern of mine.

For some of us, Michael, the
question doesn't bear pondering any more. We realized
that the whole TM schtick was a disguised religion thirty or
more years ago.

Or that we continue to beat a
dead horse. No reflection on you, if you or your friend are
dealing with this issue now and sensitive to it. It's
just that for some of us it's so been there, done that
that we have no interest in it any more.
Like so many issues that people bring up on FFL, this one
just smacks of Department of Redundancy Dept. May those who
still feel compelled to repeat the old meme "TM is not
a religion" continue to do so. May those of us who
laugh at and pity them continue to do so.
