Nope, not a cult. TM now as a corporation obviously is not a cult any more than any modern productive working corporation of employees is a 'cult'. TM and meditators as a community now are just like airline corporation employee pilots of an airline company. And they might go fly for their work wearing funny looking hats and coats too where they would go to work and pilot an airliner. And those lesser employees too as part of the corporate team who organize a flight as a gate agent or direct people as flight attendants or load luggage or maintain the corporation equipment. TM is as very modern as is any corporation in 'cult' -ure, as Maharishi himself particularly set that in motion now. TM now is not hardly as bad as you portray it. It is rapidly becoming more modern and scientific as it is of vedic origin in corporation all the time. And we don't hardly see the gold hats and robes around much outside of a small circle deep inside at the top. If there is a cult it is possibly at that level to see but you can see a lot of them avoiding the caps and robes when they can. -Buck
MJwrites:You are right Buck, the TMO IS different now - it is much more of a cult than it was when I started in 1974. If you can look at these idiots wearing robes and gold crowns who practice and follow every Hindu religious observance and holiday and not see it as a cult, then you have been snorting too much sheep dip. Shame on you MHJ. Om, First-Class Bull-Manure you Spread Wide and Spread Thick here, MHJ. This TM now is not a “cult” no more as much as you might like to declare that it is. As we used to explain in the olde days, “Om no, TM is not a 'cult' like christian cults or the people's-temple may be; TM is way too dis-organized to be that. . It's about meditation and the evident scientific spiritual value of meditation”. MJ, there is something malevolent in what you do to something that is so good in itself as what is simply transcending meditation. In this new corporate-post-charismantic-era, Transcendental Meditation is plainly now different. Your commentary is clearly out of date. I appreciate that it takes a long time for the current news to travel to the hollers and plantations of South Carolina but clearly you are out of it. -Buck in the Dome mjackson74 writes: I shall begin an immediate campaign to have it removed from Whole Goods (sic) so they don't support cults.
