Unless they had learned from other paths, TMers tend to couch yoga in a
very strange SCI kind of way. Many seem to be incapable of putting
experiences in their own words.

she thought I didn't have one.

Buck the depressed whiner and Willy the repetitive ranter, there's
probably psychological profiles of those types of psychosis somewhere.
I had a friend, an old TM teacher like me, who met somekind of a
clearvoyant, telling him that he had a TM implant in his brain,
despite the fact that he had left the movement, and surely had adopted
his own opinions on a number of things. He asked me at the time what I
thought of it. Now I am not really a believer in the implant idea, you
know there could be all kind of implants, from physical, to subtle
physical etc. So I told him so.
But after leaving TM, some decades ago, I soon realized, that not only
stopping formal TM whoulc make me into a non-TMer. I realized that the
concepts and ideas, the ideology, if you want the 'brainwashing' has
still left traces, expectations, even in the subconscious.
I had to make a conscious effort to rid myself of some of the TM
concepts, which were like hooks clinging to me. I did this to an
extend, so that I could feel happy, and not 'miss' anything of my old
TM environment, instead enjoying my new life, and my new spiritual
discoveries fully. (That's what about I told my friend)
But later the thought, that there may indeed be something of a TM
implant, that still was people hooking up, didn't leave me. In fact,
could this be one explanation, how people here on FFL, both TB TMers
(who will of course deny they are TB), and anti-TMers alike are hooked
to the same story? Infact could also anti-cultist be fighting the same
implant, that TMers so vehemently defend?
This is just a thought, I know, I will probably not get a lot of
support for it, but could there be something to it?
