That should have been: ...in which the *researchers* were devoted practitioners... I just don't understand why anyone would take "research" seriously that is undertaken by someone who obviously wants that research to turn out a certain way. Too much of the TM "research" is sadly in the same category as studies on smoking paid for by the tobacco industry.
