Yes, a nice bloke but I doubt he'd want to be named on here. He used to make me laugh when he'd go on about the unified field being consciousness and I'd say that the rest of the physics world might have something to say about that, I told him it was probably intended as an analogy, but it isn't a very good one and he'd get embarrassed because he couldn't explain and obviously didn't really understand it. Still, he did a good job teaching the mantra because I still do it! And I never liked the term "initiator" as I don't consider I was initiated into something. I bet newbies wouldn't like it either. So what's the thinking behind the term, any clues from those among us who finished TTC? > ________________________________ > From: salyavin808 <fintlewoodlewix@...> > To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com > Sent: Wednesday, May 8, 2013 11:24 AM > Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Time to Enlightenment > > > > Â > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "salyavin808" <fintlewoodlewix@> wrote: > > > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Michael Jackson <mjackson74@> wrote: > > > > > > Does anyone remember if Maharishi actually said that enlightenment could > > > come in 3-6 years or is it some pervasive Movement rumor? > > > > I know people who were promised it in 7 years. > > My TM teacher made no such claims but he did say that if kids learn > the walking mantra at the earliest opportunity and switch to TM at > age 10 and then the siddhis at 15, they would be enlightened for > college. >
