It was a Sten on my TTC in Arosa in 1975, I do not remember his last name. I started to meditate before all the scientific researches, so I had to rely on my own experiences - and when the scientific researches came out, it was just a confirmation of my own experiences. The same with my students. They start with TM for several reasons, but they continue to meditate because they have great experiences. Very few cares about the scientific researches. If it was based on beliefs, I would have stopped meditating years ago, and my students as well. Ingegerd
