Like much of what Marshy said, its made up bullshit - that means that one can't
have higher states of consciousness unless one has the magic juice produced in
the belly - what you experience in awareness it not dependent on what you have
in your stomach. It was one of Marshy's bullshit attempts to keep his pet
scientists chasing red herrings so he could keep them doing bogus research to
"prove" TM exists and works as advertised. I have had conversations with some
of the men and women who grew up in the Movement - what many of them
experienced was beyond the pale - I guess none of their parents had too much
soma or they would have known their kids needed them at home instead of zoning
out in the Domes.

Richard,
I believe MMY believed soma actually exist as a
chemical in the stomach of advanced meditators. This
chemical is the source of bliss that meditators experience
as part of the meditation practice. As such, the
meditators are favored by the demigods since they too are
seeking for this soma or amrita, the food of the
gods.
He invited researchers to work on this to
discover the chemical involved. But I don't know
if this research was actually undertaken.
David Frawley wrote about this aspect of soma in
relation with meditation in a book he published a few years
ago.
