Yes. The intelligence of the people in the TMO is a valuable resource which hasn't been used. That's why authoritarian regimes are ultimately less successful than open societies, they don't harness the intelligence of their people. So the sum total of intelligence used is less than in a society which allows people to have a wide variety of opinions. That's why the free and easy non-TM spiritual development sector is so vibrant. People are allowed to have their own ideas about how to organize things, they take responsibility for their own actions, and keep the rewards. In contrast in the TMO people are reduced to automatons carrying out orders from above and never allowed to use their own intelligence. Which means that the sum total of intelligence used in the TMO is a lot less than it could be. With consequences we can all see. Since authoritarian regimes can keep themselves going for a long time and then collapse spectacularly, we can speculate on the long term development of the TMO.
