Quote by Dr Noel Bairey Merz about the selection of the TM techniquein medical research Thought you would appreciate this statement by a non-meditating researcher about why the TM technique was chosen for their federally- funded research study. This quote appeared last week in one of the many articles published on the release of new NIH-funded research on TM and heart disease. --------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- "Transcendental Meditation is one of the techniques that has been studied the most, and the most rigorously, in randomized controlled trials. ...We chose Transcendental Meditation because it's highly protocolized and standardized, whereas many of the others aren't. For instance, Transcendental Meditation is trademarked; you have to be a certified instructor to teach it. The other reason we selected TM was that there were prior studies that suggested a very consistent physiological response on blood pressure."
