I've pointed out many a time that the way TM is taught is NOT UNIQUE.
The method predates TM.

Perhaps you are correct, but what if it turns out that Maharishi was
right afterall, and the exact manner in which TM is taught is important?

It's most likely true that the TMO have a lot of demand at the
moment, they have a great PR team and loads of celebrities saying
they do it and like it. Everyone likes celeb's, look at what the
Beatles did for the TMO, now they've got Russell Brand, how can
they fail!
On the other hand, why should we or anyone else *believe* these
stories about the numbers of people learning TM? It's NOT as if
they have a track record for telling the truth.
What I was thinking too. What if there are only 3 TM teachers in
NYC? Teaching people beej mantras doesn't take much. Other
organizations teach meditation at far less a price and it probably
didn't cost the teacher $16K to learn. At best maybe $5K and at that
they learn far more than a TM teacher learns and can give more
powerful techniques. "Seven Steps" is a child of mid 20th century.
You don't need that nowadays. A weekend session would suffice, which
is what other organizations often do.
