Richard, I don't think *thinking things over in the conscious mind* really
describes TM! Though it is one possible definition of meditation.

That's because "mindfullness" training is just like TM practice,
Share, and has the same goals - mental and physical well-being. TM
practice is essentially Buddhist yoga. It's a lot easier to
understand when you realize that meditation is just thinking things
over in your conscious mind. It's not complicated.
