TM teachers taught TM at a price accepted by the market. This is not rocket science. It has worked in the past, and would work again. Uns. It has always been over priced. When you think back on the prices then and what the average income was at the time, it was about a weeks wages. The average person has to think about emergencies or better uses for a week's wages. It's a real leap of faith to take that much money, for the average person, and satisfy his/her curiosity about something so abstract as a field of Being or Pure consciousness. I've always thought if the TMO is going to charge anything, it should at least make it so people living on an average income could whip out a check book on the spot, without much thought, and do it. Then, if they must, they could charge a bit more for advanced techniques once a person has had a taste of the absolute. ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour
