I really posted it for one reason--to point out the blatant connection,  
largely unknown by most westerners, that of the idea of a "Vedic  
Science" and the Hindutava movement. I think TM'ers who are "knee jerk"  
behind this movement should realize what they are actually supporting:  
Brahmin and Kshatriya nationalism!

I also think, before responding, it might be worthwhile to read the  
other responses to this article on the linked site I gave. Sunthar has  
done a wonderful job of placing all the responses in one place. It is  
also a great site for other reasons (check out the links). They are  
really interesting. Esp. those from Vamadeva Dave--David Frawley:

S&F,

Vaj
