Rates of Change. The calculus of aging in TM..
Some of what we can see in these lists is a natural aging-out of the
Post-War Cohort, of 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.
You can see this particular cusp in the age span of meditators in the
Dome 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/*/./
