The TM-siddhi program is a powerful, powerful technique that fosters awareness of Self through the buddhi/intellect. It "pulls" Self into awareness in the pauses between sutras. The mind begins to spontaneously discriminate between the points of time as they pass and moves into pure consciousness without loss of mental functioning. It is, in a very basic way, the "opposite" of TM. In TM you calm the mind down and slide into pure consciousness when there is essentially no mental functioning (I just realized-chitta vritti narodha-duh!) As Tom said, it is a brilliant Master stroke that has very little to do with the overt development of siddhis.
