Lawson, MMY never taught all of Yoga, if you want to really know the full scope of what he attempted to teach, unfortunately, you really have to go elsewhere. MMY was too busy manipulating it (Yoga) to appeal to modern standards. It's OK to cut the fat, but hey, I think some things he cut to the bone. MMY made TM Yoga-lite for modernity, and its done much good for many people (including me) but it's not the full enchilada. TM is essentially a Religious teaching, tailored after the teachings of Christ, Krishna, and Buddha and all the great Religions. Some may call it Spiritual as opposed to Religious, but, so what, talk about splitting hairs.... You ain't gonna achieve CC, Lawson, by removing the little stresses your parents created for you, or that conflict you had with your brother, or your psychological neurosis's, you have to look at the big picture like Christ and Buddha, they overcame it all. You must become perfect! As you may very well know.
