Thanks for filling in the blanks, Michael. I had much the same
reaction to Lawson's paranoia-filled post that you seem to have had.
He actually sounds *afraid* of the "massive 26 members," which we now
know to be one woman and a few other concerned parents and teachers.
He's afraid, even though they're "armed" with nothing but the truth
about what the mantras mean and what the words in the puja mean. And
probably a little truth about Rajas and their gold crowns and long
robes and one-million-dollar-a-head "qualifications" for that title.

It looks like you're preaching to the choir here on FFL - there are only
about four TMers left. You'd probably reach a much larger target
audience if you posted to TM-Free with John Knapp, Mike Doughney and
Gema Catena. I doubt you're going to convince the remaining four to
change their practice much, if that's your goal.
When told these things, especially in the face of the evasions and BS
they get from the TM teachers when they confront them with what
they've been told, the other parents and the teachers make the right
decision US Constitution-wise, and boot the stealth religion out of
their schools.
If TM were really so great, the TM organization wouldn't have to lie
to sell it.
