The one thing TM has just never been able to help: FAT ASSES As much as you'd think the TM leaders would be all about right-living and healthy disciplines, we see that the higher ups are as fat as Baron Harkonnen. Perhaps they're all puffed up with that extra bliss.
Truth: TMers have the same life-problems as any other group -- TMers have the same percentages as non-TMers for how many die young, divorce, get sick, unemployed and on and on. One has to ask: if TM means that much to the leaders, why wouldn't they at least lose weight by some other method and pretend it was TM that did it? In case you didn't hear: Maharishi Mahesh Yogi -- the TM Godlike Guru -- is dead. And no one with a direct connection to the Absolute has taken his place. This means fat asses will be with us until the end of days.
