cardemaister yur making my brain work hard. Dear Carde, Om, these notes you make relate to that other parallel thread of Nirvikalpa Samadhi also. Yes, is different than just TM or the TM-sidhis. Actually the folks who do speak and teach to this which you bring up are Karunamayi http://karunamayi.org/ and Mother Meera http://mrreddy.org/ , or http://www.mothermeerahomecolorado.org/links.html . They are folks to sit with that can help with these things. Also Ammachi through her IAM technique http://www.amma.org/, . I'm sure there are some others. These though are where old TMmovement'ers can readily go to for more advanced help with their progress. In western world can also go to just Janet Sussman in FF for spiritual help with these things. She is very helpful practically on this kind of work too. She is often listed in advertizements in the FF Weekly Reader. http://www.fairfieldtoday.com/ Dr. David R. Hawkins out in Az. http://www.veritaspub.com/index.php is good on this too. Old TM'ers should be able to quickly relate to these westerners if they don't wish to attach to another teacher from India for help. Life in FF. Jai Guru Dev, -Doug in FF
