I think not. It certainly would go against everything M taught openly about TM.
TM is not a religion, don't need to change your religion, just add TM and
you'll be a better practitioner of your religion etc,

A nice way to alienate a large portion of the world fro ever learning TM.
Preposterous, of course. I don't think even the Movement is this stupid - or
maybe they are. Are they? Alex? Anyone?

Son,the Pope would not qualify for a Dome badge. Doesn't matter if he learned
TM and is a meditator. In process I have hadthe Dome badge guidelines read to
me numerous times in applying for aDome badge and I have very recently been
able to read themdirectly again by oversight sub-committee work I have been on
up oncampus. He works for and promotes an organization that teachesspiritual
practices. Flat out.
TheTM course office would be bound to deny the Pope a valid Dome badgeby our
guidelines. The guidelines are un-changed and actuallyfortified around this.
The Pope wouldn't even be able to get ameditator's badge to meditate with in
the meditation room downtown inFairfield.
TheRajas and the Prime Minister of the Global Country are unmoved aboutthis
guideline. Based on his choices his innocent practice ofeffortless meditation
would evidently have been corrupted by hisdalliance with this and that mindful
praying and other meditation. Yes,including him in the group transcendence
meditation could be counter-productive thethe larger group effect of group
practice of authentic transcendingmeditation.
I rest the case. He made his choices. He would not qualify. That is how it
works around here.Visit the Pope at the peril of your valid Dome badge.

I guarantee that seeing the Pope would not disqualify anyone for a Dome badge -
the repercussions socially and politically would be too cumbersome to bear by
the Movement. Imagine the headlines: "Meditators Ostracized For Catching
Glimpse of Popemobile". Or, "TM Movement Bans Meditator For Selfie With Pope".

Off the Program? Well, technically if the Pope is teaching spiritual practices
like meditation then seeing him or attending meetings with him, certainly
facilitating for him would be "OTP" and could disqualify your valid Dome badge.
Unless the course office folks have it in your file already and they start to
ask you about it then people have learnt to just not bring things like this up
when applying for the Dome badge, something taught in the culture of TM as
lying by omission. There is a lot of fear around this in the TM community.
In this case just don't bring up that his church teaches 'centering prayer' as
method of spiritual practice/meditation. That meditation could conflict with
the innocent practice of TM and TM-sidhis. It could therefore be better if
Catholics, and certainly any who have gone to see the Pope would not be
admitted and could be removed from meditating with the group. Their delicate
'effortless practice' of transcending meditation has probably been corrupted.

HAHA, excellent question.
(I'll ignore your Ann Coulterism you made earlier about Native Americans. If I

coincidence?
Yes, a grace. A type of blessing not uncommon when it is looked for in
cultivated people. Helpful where used for others as transformation that can
come as a spiritual fruit of spiritual cultivation, the capacity to help
others. We have seen it in Fairfield. It can be just field effect of
spiritual capacity or be wielded intended as a prakriti vector in a flow of
shakti, a good vibration and is not necessarily uncommon.
It appears when experienced by others as saintly or miraculous but the Pope is
not the only one around with that grace.
