The TM movement today is undergoing a generational transition and, like within storylines of these other movements, that which does remain of the TM movement is seeking a place of renewed relevance to a greater world. The story of the Shakers is well told as a collapse popularly (mis-)construed to their practice of celibacy, the Society of Friends broadsided by evangelicalism and social and generational change went through a recession in their numbers in the same time frame. Though both groups were founded by mystics as spiritual practice groups both continue even now in a vestige of their former selves. The generational recession of numbers in the old ‘un-programmed’ practice of the Society of Friends Quaker Meetings is shown in an appendix published at the very beginning of the 20th Century. Evidently in the scope of attrition of transcendent meditationist numbers attending group meditations of the TM movement a similar generational collapse is being witnessed as happened with the Quakers, Shakers and also at Amana Colony. As a founding energy (shakti) of a mystic and spiritual practice of a formation era came to be supplanted by monotony of maintaining institutional states and causes built up from founding eras then succeeding generations evidently becoming, routinized and tired went their own ways on into the material world of their day. ..all work and no ‘shakti’ make Jack and Betty dull worker ants.
