He's not a bogus scientist simply because he doesn't run a dept that teaches courses in his area of expertise. The knowledge of Vedic Astrology is located in the ancient Vedic Literature and in the oral tradition of Vedic families of India. It is complete, scientific, authentic, and reliable, because it is a revelation of the most fundamental level of Nature’s intelligence, the Unified Field of Natural Law*—the common basis of all streams of knowledge, where the holistic value of Natural Law and specific values of Natural Law function in unison. All theories of modern science uphold all disciplines of Vedic Science, because Vedic Science is fundamental to modern science. I'm fairly sure I don't need to add anything to that. If you want to be taken seriously, I'd distance yourself from craziness. Just as a first step. It's not that you can't do good research into meditation there, it's the fact that your department is based on an untested religious theory that underpins it. I haven't seen any evidence for any of the claims vedic "scientists" make, so why don't they fess up and say they've got a religion they want to prove? No harm in honesty, also no harm in saying that it has practical benefits we can exploit, if that is the case, but who isn't going to look into what vedic science actually is when they come across it? That's what I mean by them not wanting to be taken seriously.

He mentioned that some other researchers wanted to see the raw data, and it seemed he was not going to give it to them, saying 'You know what they would do with it'. We do indeed know, they'd have a look to see what the hell is going on and blow it out of the water if that's what it deserves. Not letting other researchers look at what it is you've done to reach your conclusions is the very essence of bad science because if it can't be checked there's no reason for anyone to believe it. Especially as it's in such a contentious area. I do remember reading that they'd refused to hand over raw data before but could never find any evidence online, it would have helped in the many arguments I've had about the ME research over the years. Just checking the MUM website, the university does not have a neuroscience department. Fred Travis, for example, is a Professor of Maharishi Vedic Science, not a professor of a scientific discipline that are researching meditation at other universities. Professor of Maharishi Vedic Science? It's like they don't even want to be taken seriously.
