I've read a few of Frawley's books. He has acknowledged several acharyas or teachers, including Aurobindo. From what I've read, his ideas are very similar to the TM ideas. In a jyotish symposium several years ago, I personally talked to him about TM and Chopra. He did not mention that he practiced TM. However, he said that he was consulted by Chopra to design a set of meditation mantras for his new meditation clinic. At that time, he also said that he was writing a book about tantra. Several months later the book did come out which is readily available in bookstores these days.
