You know, there's no way I want to levitate badly enough to spend the time day after day doing program. It would be fun, and if somebody were to hand it to me on a silver platter, I'd take it. But in and of itself, it's not all that compelling. Wnat I *do* want badly enough to spend the time day after day doing program is to no longer be overshadowed. That was why I started TM in the first place, and I've continued because I'm making slow but steady progress in that direction. I'd be lying if I said I wanted to help the world more than I wanted to not be overshadowed, but there does seem to be a reciprocal relationship: as I become less overshadowed, I become more concerned about the world. But if somebody told me, Well, you have a choice: by doing program you can *either* help the world *or* no longer be overshadowed, I think--or I'd like to think--that I'd continue doing program, because being able to help the world is a pretty good compensation for being overshadowed. I don't know if any of that makes sense... My main point was that being able to levitate has never been why I do program. If it ever happens, it'll be a nice bonus, but it ain't the main event.
