You know, that's one of the claims I'm inclined to think may be accurate, based on my own experience. Fairly shortly after I'd started TM, I attended a lecture at Lucis Trust at a friend's urging. They began the program with a group meditation. I expected a group meditation with several hundred people would be pretty neat, based on my experience of having meditated with a group before TM advanced lectures. (I hadn't at that point heard anything about only meditating with other TMers.) So they began the meditation. I did TM; I don't know what others were doing, but I assume most of them weren't doing TM. And I was disappointed, because it felt kind of chaotic, not at all like meditating with others at the TM center. That's been my experience on several other occasions as well when I participated in a group non-TM meditation.
