Thx,...I'm skeptical of the rationale and underlying assumptions beyond such overly broad topics such as "What is Real". What the presenter should do is jump right to the benefits of "transcending" in the first part of the lecture, then segue into the ontological discussions later (and keep those to a minimum). ....Would one of the conclusions be "Transcending will make you happy and TM is the preferred method of transcending". OK fine...let's see some evidence. Likewise, with the other claims. Will "transcending" offset bad karma. Will it make people richer?. How about curing diseases? Make some real substantial claims followed by some good uncooked data; with perhaps a few citations of peer reviewed research by somebody outside of the TMO or MUM. If the claims are true, people in vast numbers should be flocking to a practice that has specified benefits.
Will "transcending" help one in the midst of a Zombie Apocalypse? Will it extend one's lifespan? (doesn't look like it in view of the stats coming from FF) .
