Progress is based on how much the individual is able to challenge his
individual karma which to varying degree is resisting change. Every
Teacher knows you can't just push a button and then all of a sudden
you are alright. Maharishi said that inspiring stuff to inspire, not
that he for a minute believed it was possible for everyone knowing how
much internal resistence there can be in a student. Same With
Yogananda, same with all Teachers. Progress is the responsebility of
the individual, not the Teacher. Blaming the teacher just expose an
immature soul.

A good teacher would make it part of the teaching.
I think you're making excuses using things you've picked up from
elsewhere, just like Willytex does below. It's OK, I know why you do
it, you are trying to preserve an idea you like and excuse why it
doesn't work for others while simultaneously giving yourself a pat on
the back for being so advanced you have no internal resistance.

/Apparently you are not an educator - every teacher knows that it's the
student that is supposed to complete the lessons and pass the test. A
teacher gives you the tools - it's up to the student to do the work//. A
really good teacher will inspire the student to surpass the teacher in
knowledge and achievement. In any case, you're not supposed to stay in
school your entire life. At a certain point most students graduate. Go
figure. //

"guru yoga". Good luck./

Besides, I don't care about any of it, I do TM because I like it not
because I believe any of the hocus pocus cosmic intelligence nonsense.
I've seen and heard enough to be able to give a good account of what
TM is and what it can do.

So the technique isn't as effective as claimed? If everyone thinks
that, why do you get annoyed when someone points it out?

Misery? It's the people with sense of internal logical consistency I
feel sorry for round here.

That we are already enlightened isn't Marshy's teaching, that's just
Willy's make believe to excuse his own lack of evolution. You guys
ought to own the knowledge and stop contradicting yourselves all the
time. Steve even thinks that he isn't the same as me and MJ even
though he doesn't believe it all either!
When was the last time a True Believer made sense round here? Go figure...
