I have no idea. All I know is how and why I started TM and what I brought into the experience. I started TM because it was: 1) easy to do; 2) no belief was required; 3) I didn't have to give up my own traditions; 4) the little white book of scientific charts. I still hold to all those tenets so when the craziness started I tried to adapt -- I really tried to rationalize and justify it all, for years -- and then I realized that I wasn't being true to MMY's own vision, the original vision with which I started TM and to which to this day (32 years later) I do it twice daily. And then I realized that I had only one option: and that was to reject the irrational and accept the rational. And, thus, have no choice but to reject all the silliness and embrace the original vision. So, I am convinced, it is I who is "on the program" and all those who surround MMY who cater to and encourage his whims and grad schemes that are off the program. ------------------------ Yahoo!
