Ok, so I'm a TB. I guess that's true, because after years of trying to deny or "explain away" my experiences and those of hundreds of other people, I can't. That's what I experienced, and that they experienced, and I'm comfortable with that, even though it makes others a tad...uh...uncomfortable. And Ok, I'm a cultist. After that first lecture, I studied with the Rama guy for quite a few years. It was mainly fun, and when it stopped being fun, I split. I don't regret a moment of it. And I gained some both some inter- esting experiences and a good career from it all. So I may *be* a TB cultist, but on the other hand I'm a TB cultist who gets to live in the south of France. And last I checked, I was having a fairly good time living here. Whereas some of the folks who drank the TM Kool-Aid only feel as if they're making spiritual progress when they're "on courses" or living in houses whose doors face the right direction. Shemp, and the others...I *understand* your disbelief. I *understand* you reacting to it with derision and namecalling. I really don't mind being called a TB and a cultist. All I'm suggesting is that *as* TBs and cultists go, I think I've got a better deal goin' for me than some of the other TBs and cultists here. :-)
