This was sent by e-mail to me by a FFL lurker. Jim was someone I knew even from High school. Was in one of my brother's grades then. A bunch of us were and still are Iowa meditators from back then together.
"Just wondering, where else did groups go to meditate in coherence campaigning for peace?" [paste] I remember Jim Altmaier telling me about how he went to Iran. The story was quite fascinating. They were in a hotel. It was at the beginning of the revolution--right before Khomeni took over. So probably 78 or 79. The story Jim told is that someone pounded on their door and it was some of the Shah's army. They thought they had seen a camera taking pictures from their window. They pointed guns at them and threatened them until they found out they were Americans. Then it was "It's all right. We're here to protect you." Some time after that I know that MMY quit sending people to trouble spots because it was so dangerous and he didn't want to put our precious sidhas in danger. I wish Jim were still with us and would tell us more about it. Ecuador too. Somebody contacted me today about having gone to Ecuador with a team testing the extended Global Maharishi Effect. Anybody go on a project team to Africa? What other countries or places? Anywhere else?

(Iran, Rhodesia, Nicaragua) Philippines? Lebanon? Belgrade? Thailand? Around Soviet Russia. Nepal . . What dates? What other places did TM movement meditators with bags packed go off to on these campaigns? For a period of time movement meditators would have their bags packed and go; small and large teams of meditators deployed to go meditate. I am curious where and how long the list of places is, and when. Just wondering for context of history. Please reply if you shipped out on one of these or know as to where they went. Time frame of date too. Any clandestine ones?
