Very good points!

The slacking off of meditators might depend on more than simple laziness.
Long time meditators generally report that experiences of states in
medtation that were short-lived early in their practice basically
become perpetual.
That means a state you had to practice to get at simply exists all the
time, it is not necessary for meditation to bring it about anymore.
Meditation becomes a kind of maintenance for dealing with current
stresses in the environment
This might explain why so many meditators still meditate but do not
practice the TM-Sidhi program, which facilitates Unity. If Unity (or
Brahman) is there, the sidhis are redundant to get to this state if it
is already there.
The statistics used to imply there is a Maharishi effect does not
obviate the fact there has never been a direct measurement of the how
that effect propagates. If the effect exists, how would you measure it?
Example — heat. Objects at a distance from a supposed source of heat
burn. Statistically you can say in the presence of the source, so many
trees burn. But that does not say how it happens the source produces this.
In this case, infrared radiation can me measured and quantified and an
actual mechanism identified, based on known and verified physical
principles.
In the case of the Maharishi effect, only TM movement scientists are
awed by the effect.
It is ignored by other scientists because it is explained only
statistically and the raw statistical data has not been released and
the mechanism has not been measured or identified as a replicatable
experiment and so is not believed by these other scientists.
Communication about this effect is botched as a result.
We have meditators and sidhas not needing to achieve what they already
have and so have no desire to to repeat those practices for that purpose.
There are also meditators who quit through lack of satisfaction, or
some other spiritual system captures their attention.
We have an understanding of an effect that only some meditators
believe and which most others do not.
And as pointed out we have the TM movement, which discards its assets
— meditators, sidhas, and teachers — on doctrinal disagreements.
Meditators also often display a sense of entitlement, that because
they are meditators, they are something special. Pride goeth before
the fall.
Way to go people.

Spiritually, in what was an evident gross slacking off of meditators
meditating, data would likely show quite a high correlation directly
between a decline of coherence in parameters of a culture of American
democracy to the slacking off of numbers of meditators regularly
attending what were large group meditations once facilitated by the
TMO in a more golden age of meditation and then a following onset of
thirty-six years of separating meditators from the ™ movement.
This is likely as strong in hypothesis now as what is now the
Meissner-like postulate that is now extremely correlated that group
practice of meditation brings coherence well-being to larger populations.
In statistical truth on statistical truth of course there is
justification for more testing of hypothesis. But by such clear and
highly correlated evidence of science we do have right now it is quite
time to STFU (sit the f' up) and meditate, today.
