You are a man? A TM-Teacher? I really hope that you meet other people to date than your own students? I have observed that in some Academies - it is a very narrow world - with many strange sexrelations - that has not been very healthy. I really hope, when we are so busy to develop spirituality, that we also develop some ethical standards as well. I am not against sex - but we have some responsibility for our students. For a Teacher - and special a spiritual Teacher - to have sex with the students is sex-abuse. Ingegerd
