Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Fwd: Message from Dr. Bevan Morris
Yeah, but keep this stuff hidden from view of the public. Maharishi, in the
beginning days, was so conscious of the movement's public image. He wanted
everything to be neat and proper, from our appearance to our behavior. However,
everybody had to be a little quirky, from wearing earth shoes that made some
people think we had clubbed feat, to not shaking hands or wearing no leather.
Waving of hands as we spoke and all of the TM speak, it just got ridicules.
Outsiders started looking at TMers as neurotic freaks and wondering if TM has
something to do with it.*We* shoot our selves in the foot when it comes to
making people think that TM will be helpful in creating a better person.
Sometimes I look back on my days with the movement and just have to laugh at
how ridicules it all was and be thankful I left that crap behind me. I still
adore M and like TM but I'm so glad I put the TMO behind me and to this day I
will not be seen near a TM facility. Unfortunately too many people have taken
the *Peter Pan* vow, I won't grow up and it stuck!

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Fwd: Message from Dr. Bevan Morris
Dear Dear Older Meditators gone away, As things are happening inside at this very moment in time this is important feedback you are giving here. This is critical. It is read. For some there is The New Construct, The spiritual practice of Securing Safety in Meditation, Polyvagal Theory, and Peace within the TM movement. As one reporter living in the TM cortex that is close around to the vortex of Global things here, one can see now that some few of you are not even close to seeing the inner urge for spirituality that is at work here as the polyvagal connection of head and heart on ground zero here, like those of us who live and show up for meditations and meetings here in Fairfield, Iowa can see it. However to carry things through here we need your input at the least as support for changes that are happening right now.
