M wasn't very fond of any other meditation opther than TM. However, I did hear
him say that he liked one Buddhist technique called *walking meditation*. I'm
not sure of the technique but it involved the attention shifting from one foot
to the next as one walked. He said that it developed witnessing.
I'm sure that if he'd tried some other techniques he might have had a bit more
respect for what they can achieve. The trouble is that he had something to sell
and you don't sell much if you encourage people to look elsewhere at the same
time!
He was also unfair (or just ignorant) when he spoke about other techniques,
doing them down all the time. There are plenty of ways to get there. Or here as
the case may be....

But, the scientific and secular aspect of transcending meditation as it is
presented by some could very well appeal to the more official modern mind in
mainland China as opposed to religious Buddhist meditations.
