What's the connection between that stuff and > Realization? Grace and *effort* are required to remove the three esoteric 'knots' or granthis'. Something MMY didn't want to scare you with, and yes, effort *is* required by living the ethical principles delineated by Patanjali in his first two limbs of Yoga! If you think TM is going to remove all of your bad habits and you're just waiting for it to kick in, you'll be waiting a long, long, long time. Get with the FULL Patanjali program and start making real progress!! (I'm sure Peter has his own suggestions....).
