He has no idea what he is not living -- that's why it's called ignorance. The thing is, though, that how you package what you want to tell the ignorant is subject to conditions like the culture you are trying to work in. So in a country with respect for scientific knowledge, which is certainly the dominant mode in most of the world today, you talk about TM in scientific terms, which has been done. But in India, more talk of restoring Vedic culture. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
