Geez, Where does Vaj get this stuff? TM is a dangerous "instrospection meditation" and it creates subtle dualism that guarantees a transcend and deny type of outcome of some sort?" Gibberish. I can't wait for his next installment of bullshit about TM when he obviously doesn't know anything it. He keeps exposing his ignorance about TM and he's at it again with the same old rag. Boring, boring, boring. His mindless open-eyed meditation must be weakening his mind. But that's O.K. by me. I don't care what type of meditation Vaj does and I don't care about dissing his meditation because I really don't know what "it" is. As far as I can tell, he does a little bit of this and a little bit of that and all of it so vaguely defined, I wouldn't know where to begin discussing "it" with him. It's O.K. by me he's not doing TM because if he did it with eyes open, he would probably end up with a massive headache. In TM the mind would have to strain to keep the eyes open and straining in TM can cause a headache. So if Vaj is doing a meditation with eyes-open he's probably not transcending otherwise he would be complaining of a headache. Maharishi was very clear that open-eyed meditation divides the mind and makes it weak. TM withdraws the senses from activity, the mind settles down, thinking becomes quieter, it's like drawing the arrow back on the bow, one experiences dynamic silence for 20 minutes then one plunges into dynamic activity. TM is rest and activity bringing steps of progress. Eyes-open meditation is activity and activity bringing steps of weak mind and headache.
