********* I'm not an initiator, having only completed phase I of TM teacher training, but on the basis of my 37 years of TM practice, I see this latest announcement as just another unworkable plan that will be chucked after a few months (not that it makes a lot of difference anyway, given the low initiation rate in the U.S.). When MMY said at a press conference a couple years ago that he did not mind if renegade TM teachers taught outside the TM bureaucracy as long as they did it in the prescribed way, it created a problem for the TM movement: how to deal with people who have been taught authentic TM, but whose starting was not accepted by the TM bureaucracy for purposes of checking or attending courses, etc? This announcement that only re- certified teachers can teach is an attempt to re-gain control over the brand, but it won't work, because there is not enough revenue to support full-time teachers, and because there will only be a few full- time teachers, doing checking of meditation for people who live outside of the few cities where the full-time teachers are will be a logistical nightmare, and so on... I predict a life-span of about 3 months for this pronouncement -- maybe it will disappear in July when the Sat Yuga starts!! > I must admit that this is a very strange time after 35 years, the best > of my youth, all of my dedication, time and finance - suddenly to be > cut off. > > How do you react ? > > Sincerely yours, Lupidus To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
