One might ask, for example, anyone who disputes that "secrets were the norm" and the willingness of TBs to keep them without giving a second thought to it whether they, personally, have ever told anyone their TM mantra. If they have not, then they kept for decades a secret that in many cases here they only paid $35 for, or $75. Imagine being someone who had invested tens of thousands of dollars and decades of his life, becoming privy to a deep, dark secret, and being told that revealing it would not only get him kicked out of the movement, but imperil his everlasting soul, squelch his chances of enlighten- ment forever, and end him up in the Hell worlds for many, many incarnations. Do you think such a person might...uh...tend to keep the secret? "How many people were surprised by King Tony's recent revelation about being married with children?" "Almost everybody." :-) > > <snip> > > > Of course contrary to all the perfect health immortality > > > bullshit, he was a sick old man long before his time. > > > > Right!

What I liked the most was the trick of mounting the camera above his bed pointing downwards and then fluffing up the pillows to make it look as if he was sitting up, when in fact he was prone. That was the TMO in a nutshell.
