Both were current when I started TM in 1975, so I
couldn't say.  But I've heard TM teachers say that
at first it was just "Do less and accomplish more."

Back in 1967, did you understand "Do nothing and
accomplish everything" to be a prescription to
refrain from acting?

That would have been when you were a TM teacher, no?
