Thanks for the information about TucsonConsciousness - maybe I'll see you there.

There must be hundreds of scientific reports by now, either confirming the thory or rejecting it.
The single most important report I've read was authored by Hari Sharma, Brihaspati Dev Triguna and Deepak Chopra that appeared in 'JAMA', which is cited on the TM Org's Website. Apparently this report is the single most important report ever published about MMY's theory of enlightenment progression, right behind Benson and Wallace's report in 'Science' magazine. Can you post a link to the report or provide a summary of it here? I'll submit it to the ASSC 10 Administrator. 'Letter From New Delhi: Maharishi Ayur-Veda: Modern Insights Into Ancient Medicine' by Hari Sharma, Brihaspati Dev Triguna, and Deepak Chopra JAMA, 265, 2633-2637, 1991 According to Maharishi, "...over 600 scientific studies at more than 200 independent research institutions in 35 countries during the past 40 years confirm that the technique works-and brings remarkable benefits to people around the world. Research on the Transcendental Meditation program has been published in more than 100 leading scientific journals, including Scientific American, Business and Health, Science, and the Journal of the American Medical Association."
