Though look closer at this recent list someone provided of meditators
who have passed. It has a lot of the WW II and post-war cohort
generation on it now, as would be expected of age 70 and 80+ year
older meditators. The earlier lists include more of TM boomers I and
II who have passed away.
Next up to bat are Boomers I and then Boomers II, naturally. The
lists of meditators that are further down show what was the natural
mortality of TM Boomers I and II too. In any population there are
people who die-off all along as a natural attrition. TM’ers are no
different that way. In fact, a natural die-off in modern humans
really accelerates once people hit 70, to where very very few make it
to their 80’s.

We need not to get too defensive about this. In a Natural mortality
like most any general population of peoples TM’ers have been dying all
along throughout their decades. Mortality rates generally are slow
and seemingly imperceptible early-on up through middle years.

young, this list does not show all the Governors, many who are alive
and very old.

Your odds of living 10 more years..
if you are 45 years of age is about 24 in 25.
According to the USA Census your odds of making it ten more years if
you are:
53 years of age is about 10 in 11.
Your odds of living 10 years more from 60 years of age is about 5 in 6.
Your odds of making it 10 more years if you are 68 are about 3 in 4.
If you are 70 the odds are 2 in 3 that you will make it 10 more years.
Age 75, 1 in 2 will last ten more years. Age 80, 1 in 3 you will
last 10 years. At age 85, 3 in 20 will make it another 10 years.
Age 88, 1 in 20 living at age 88 will make it another 10 years,
..cumulatively, most everyone else is gone before then.
The die-off really starts to happen from about age 60. Very few
actually make it to be older than age 85, most are gone on by then.

Rates of Change. The calculus of aging in TM..
Some of what we can see in these mortality lists of TM'ers below is a
natural aging-out of the Post-War Cohort, the people who were early
with Maharishi in the very early SRM movement, the Walter Koch and
Charlie Lutes generation of TM.
Now what we are seeing in TM is an accelerating rate of attrition to
aging-out of the Boomer I and Boomer II’s. Interestingly, the cusp
time period where the Boomers I and Boomers II met was the time frame
where TM took off in popular (college undergrad, grad student,
professor-age) culture for a time. A lot of the TM movement intake
happened in those years 1968-76, over the cusp of the Boomers I and
II. The teaching of TM virtually disappeared during the 1980's,
1990's and first half of the 00's. Initiations have crept upward
since y-2006.
You can see this particular cusp of Boomers I and II in the general
age span in the Dome meditation or at campus meetings of the TM
community now. The WWII generation is pretty much gone from the ranks
of TM now. The Post-War Cohort are pretty gone or geriatric now and
the Boomers I are increasingly shuffling or gone on. Boomers II are
increasingly ‘in diminish’. Time is short regardless.
*Post-War Cohort*
Born: 1928-1945
Coming of Age: 1946-1963
Age in 2004: 59 to 76
Current Population: 41 million (declining)
*Boomers I or The Baby Boomers*
Born: 1946-1954
Coming of Age: 1963-1972
Age in 2004: 50-58
Current Population: 33 million
*Boomers II or Generation Jones*
Born: 1955-1965
Coming of Age: 1973-1983
Age in 2004: 39 to 49
Current Population: 49 million
/For a long time the Baby Boomers were defined as those born between
/*/1945/*/and /*/1964/*/. That would make the generation huge (71
million) and encompass people who were 20 years apart in age. It
didn't compute to have those born in /*/1964/*/compared with those
born in /*/1946/*/./
