Unfortunately, it became an argument over who is better, drinkers or none drinkers, those who can enjoy life or don't enjoy life, if alcohol has a role in the 'glamour' of living or is alcohol a poison that dulls the mind. I guess my point is, if someone chooses to meditate twice a day and has good experiences, is it possible and recommended for TMers according to the instruction, that it makes no difference to have two 6oz. glasses of wine each day? Will they continue to have good experiences or not? Does the TMO not have any thing to say on this? For me personally, if I drank two 6oz. glasses of wine every day, my experience would be dramatically effected but that's me. I would be really curious to know how many people on this list drink two 6oz. glasses of wine each day and can claim that they feel no difference in the experience of deep meditation. I'm talking mainly about people who never drank for sometime and then began to drink later on.
Author Ken Wilber claims to have been in continuous witnessing for years, but in one of his books (a spiritual diary of a years time) he claimed the witness was not experienced after drinking fair amounts of wine with his new girlfriend. On vacation--South Beach.
