Thanks for posting this, Mike. I, for one, simply cannot WAIT to hear how the TM defenders on this forum "defend" this one. That should be very amusing. I also look forward to the looks on the faces of "recertified" TM teachers attempting to sell the David Lynch Foundation program to a school system when one of the teachers or parents pulls out a printout of this PDF and asks them to explain it. That should be even more amusing. I might add, as a note to TM defenders like Judy who never once met Maharishi that *this* is what a TM Teacher Training Course *sounds like*, and what you missed by never having been on one. Note the careful preservation of Maharishi's broken English so that there can be no question as to who the quote comes from. Suggestions for points to "defend" in your ongoing quest to do so here on FFL: * Recertified Governors are only hope of the world and you are very few and must know what you are * Even spa people who touch body should start TMthe touch will be softer so they must meditate * We don't give out anything free, except personal checking (for which they have already paid). If you don't charge, wealthy people won't come. * Personnel should be simple, not creative. They have to be faithful to you * World Peace Bonds...At the end of three years the investor receives the principle plus compound interest. (It has been over three years since this was written. Has *anyone* ever received what was promised?) * Our strength is not the creativity of the people we engage. Our strength is in constant publicity. * We are not going to take help from medical Drs. as medical professionals give poison. So don't engage any medical Drs. for anything absolutely whatever it iseven if they are in our Movement family * Hold onto the fact that we are the supreme authorities on healthwe know how to create perfect healthwe are challenging all governments in world. * LMT's need to learn Transcendental Meditation technique first. It's for their personal enlightenment and world peace If LMT does not want to start TM then we do not take them. ... 2 hours of TM and TM-Sidhi program is a must for Sidha LMTs also. Tell them that their arms will be softer. * Have someone contact the town. Do it on a no-names basis. Just find out if they have any rules on health spas that offer massage. Be careful about how this is worded. "Massage parlors" have a bad reputation all over the US and towns don't want them. So make sure that you talk about opening a health spa. Be careful there too, though. If they think it is a medical clinic there are a whole set of rules that relate to that. * Gandharva Veda melodies help the growth of the plants as well as making them more nutritious. * We don't mind being costly as long as we are supportive to life. What we offer has to be supportive to the *Vedic* life. We have to offer that which is *most* costly: bliss, enlightenment, invincibility. * Really for peace to be enjoyed on earth, reconstruction is a VITAL POINT. Without proper Vastu there will always be problems. Those who *really* want to be peaceful in life have to live in Vastu. Those should keep you busy for a while... :-)
