Actually, I believe her consciousness is doing quite well. Probably a lot better than many of those in the dome. She’s just playing out her particular drama.

Apparently, she feels right about telling the truth, and then continuing to take action when this doesn’t produce results.

So you’re saying that the “context” of the TMO is that you have to lie to participate in it, and that she should have abandoned her principles to get what she wanted.

Having been on a number of job interviews, I have not been completely open hearted and trusting if I wanted the job. Same thing with S. Ma, who should've just acted in such a way to be able to do her program in the dome. Act in context. I just don't understand folks who insist that everyone must know their "truth", and then if they are denied something as a result, start all the wailing and gnashing of teeth. S. Ma needs to take responsibility for her
 actions, and stop laying the victim trip on everyone.The TMO is not run by God directly- it is run by people and these people have decided for whatever reason on rules in order to do the program there. S. Ma sounds like she needs to mature a little bit.

I got your trust thing just as I posted the above. I
asked myself if I had the money and time would I
actually go to the course? The answer is probably not.
If I did go, the motivation would certainly have
nothing to do with the ME and World Peace. I'd go to
see old friends and would end up enjoying the deep
experiences I always have when meditating in large
groups. But the ME? Naw. That's so weak with the
bhogi's sleeping in the domes and world peace does not
depend upon the square root of anybody or anything.
It's Kali yuga, man. Animals are incarnating for the
first time in human bodies and they're acting just
like, well, animals!

I don't think that people are not going to this new
course because of lack of trust, but because they have
lives and commitments outside of the TMO. When I was
in my 20's, not married, and going to college I could
go off to any course I wanted too and I did. But now
in my 50's like many others, who can just leave their
life and go to Fairfield for a two month course?

Mainstream20016 : 
The reluctance of FF, U.S. & Canadian TM flyers to participate in the virtuallly free-of-

Is it? Did he say it was? I guess he’ll never know why the TMO withered, because no one will have the guts to tell him.
