For some of us, Michael, the question doesn't bear pondering any more. We realized that the whole TM schtick was a disguised religion thirty or more years ago. > The post doesn't require that anyone defend the fact they practice TM Or that we continue to beat a dead horse. No reflection on you, if you or your friend are dealing with this issue now and sensitive to it. It's just that for some of us it's so been there, done that that we have no interest in it any more. Like so many issues that people bring up on FFL, this one just smacks of Department of Redundancy Dept. May those who still feel compelled to repeat the old meme "TM is not a religion" continue to do so. May those of us who laugh at and pity them continue to do so.
