Heck TM does not even have a
charismatic leader or
leadership anymore. WE got administrators. It is kind of
hard to
have a cult without a charismatic leader that you could
point to.
That is defining of cults. Please see FFL post# 370565 .
No, people
become meditators and then freely participating in this
organization
because they like meditation and appreciate all the good
that the
transcendent meditative state provides everyone individually
and
collectively. Our meditating organization is here to
facilitate that
good. That facilitating in our case now is the work of good
in
progress by our new incorporation as meditators. Our
corporation as
it always has been is certainly about affecting a positive
revolutionary radical change in all of society for
everybody. Most
of us in TM are pretty clear about that. Are you with us or
against
us in this?

MJ, See
Weber's comments on 'cult' in Melton's Intro
to The
Postcharismatic Fate of New Religious
Movements:http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/370565
MJ, Your thesis around TM being a
'cult' has a problem in
that we in TM no longer have a charismatic leader of TM. We
are
either administrators or meditators in TM and anyone in TM
is
enfranchised by a little of both under Maharishi's
Absolute Theories
of Management and Government. You clearly are full of your
own
personal BS and have your ax grinding about something.
I feels a sorrow for thee in thy lack of peace around
this.-Buck
“Which would you
rather
experience: living the paradox or understanding it to your
satisfaction?” Not either position is mutually exclusive,
or that
there is a third possibility of both.

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
