I'm glad we are now all clear about this point. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote :

Perhaps the Turq could help him out and spend some of his autumn years behind the wheel. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <steve.sundur@...> wrote : Michael, I'd say you've got your work cut out for you. Tackle them one at a time. I can't think of a better use of your time. Maybe you can get a specially outfitted van. "Michael's Traveling antiTM Van. Driving Home the Truth about TM Across America", or something along these lines. What do you think? Oh, and by the way, the professors I encountered during my days at MIU seemed a little more circumspect with the discipline/SCI connections. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : Oh I know it happens but and I admit my experience doesn't cover ALL people in the world, but when I was at MIU the faculty members I encountered seemed to be a bit more of the True Believers than most of the staff and students, of course that could be because they were required as part of their jobs to really put forth the TM party line on any question or situation that arose. I just hope that one day some enterprising individual will hire a group to analyze the entire "scientific" body of research on TM and TMSP, prove scientifically and statistically that it is NOT scientifically valid, that the appropriate authorities will look into the pundit program, see that MUM/GCWP is in violation of federal statues, shut down the pundit cash cow program, heavily fine the Movement, find the accreditation of MUM is undeserved and revoke it, Girish will then sell the place and all this after Hagelin and Moriss have had to own up to their womanizing in court, MUM will fire both of them, they will then turn on the Movement and tell all the dirty secrets to save their necks which will be the testimony that leads to the revoking of the accreditation. Also, a serious study will be undertaken to see how many TM'ers develop mental problems after long use of TM, the number of suicides and attempted suicides will be studied, and after all this is published, the TMO will be unable to claim any scientific validity to anything it does and is reduced to saying "We think you should do it cause we need your money and we think its a good thing to do."

I think many have taken this route. A friend of mine who was an active teacher back in the day, and lived in FF for a spell, is now priest in an archdiocese in Iowa somewhere, IIRC, and he tells a similar store as Kai Druhl, and his objections run along the same lines. I think you have a tendency to take at face value every claim MMY or the TMO has made, and then when they don't pan out you start pounding. I think others were able to figure in a discount for the "vision of possibilities" and go from there. Yes, some of things that have come to light in the intervening years have caused me some cognitive dissonance, and forced me to look at things differently, but I know what I have taken away from the experience overall, and that has allowed me to overcome some of the dysfunctional parts of it all.
