Yep, they may have meaning to some but in this practice don't use that and they are not used that way. Evidently from the Master, “don't dwell on it” as in don't use it that way. Therefore TM is not religious. Yes, end of argument, -Buck

I've posted this before some years back but for me it was settled once and for all back in 1976 when I received my 4th "advanced technique". I was waiting in line to see MMY when the guy in front of me, a friend of mine, said "ask him the meaning, he'll tell you." MMY gave me the new variation of my mantra (it was now Sri Aing Namah Namah) and I quietly said "what is the meaning?" MMY said "Glorious Saraswati I bow down to you again and again. {pause} Do not dwell." At the time I was totally thrilled since I LOVED the idea of worshipping the goddess Saraswati. It was only much later that I began to think about the fact that I had been telling all of my students that they were meaningless sounds.Many years later, when the mantra tables were revealed, it was easy to decipher the meaning of all of them.
