The term TM means "Transcendental Meditation as taught by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi." We all said that in our intro lectures. Didn't you? Oh that's right you never became a teacher.
Self-realized yogis most likely got an initiation far removed the TM seven steps. They got a guru mantra from their guru who was an acharya. This seed mantra is often too powerful to be given just to anyone. The guru determines if you can handle one or not. This whole practice is far removed from the dime-store meditation at a Neiman-Marcus price that TM is that you can't compare the two. BTW, you can transcend watching analog television too. Should we call that "transcendental meditation" too? IOW, your definition is WAY TOO BROAD!
