Actually, I never read it as "enlightenment happens next week." And if enlightenment doesn't happen in a week, why would the rest of the stuff happen in a week? OTOH, effects would be felt literally overnight, but they are with TM as well. > > Given the above statements, you might look to the effect of these > programs on the lives of the people who have been practicing them the > longest and with the most dedication to verify the claims.

I DO expect TM to work for people within the TM organization, but don't expect everyone to show saintly behavior overnight. Some people seem very worried about consenting sexual behavior betweent adults -- as though it was the end-all of morality and ethics.
