Been there, (not lately, too many sleeping elephants) but enough to know TM works. The holy mantras of the Rishis lead to bliss, as MMY used to say, "All roads lead to Rome", or bliss consciousness. > > Even Swami Yogananda extolled the virtues of mantra japa (ie. TM) though he thought Patanjali's *ALL* 8 limbs were superior (including concentration or Dharana); thanks to MMY however for enlightening we ignorant Westerners as to the very nature of consciousness as the foundation of relative creation, Jai MMY.
