I clicked on the video at a random point and there was Hagelin saying "In the yoga sutras of Patangali, which is the classic text of yoga, there are techniques to transcend -- transcending meditations for example -- which just take the mind like a rock to sink deeply into the transcendental source of thought."
To which I say, "Obviously John doesn't have a definition of 'mind' that separates it from 'consciousness,' nor does he see that consciousness is not 'awareness.'" John just spews a 1st lecture and condescends about the other panel members being knowers of reality. BAH! And note that he doesn't take questions. Does he ever take questions? I bet he does but only from very specific groups -- not from the rough shod Fairfielders who have given up TM, for instance. And double BAH on John for his vile morality and sexual predator lifestyle -- no wonder he doesn't want questions, cuz someone who's life he's ruined might just be rude enough to confront him about how valuable his philosophical concepts and his meditation-skill-set and the results of his use of them are if they have not transformed him from evil toad to saint. Yeah, I hate the guy and he's not done a thing to me personally... He is an incarnation of all the TMO hyprocrisy, all the "philosophy lite fuzzy blubbery talky-ness, and all the Raja superiority. I would not advise him to get stuck in an elevator with me. There would be blood, no debate, and it wouldn't take place in the astral.
