It continues to shape my perspective today and always will. But your assumptiveness in using the term "transcending" reveals a lot about your own beliefs around the practice. I would not use that term to describe how I think of my experiences in TM or with mindfulness meditation. the word is too loaded with assumptions to be useful in describing my own experience with them now. Richard's claim is nonsensical, since we all pretty much know that he'd never even *heard* the term "transcending" until he heard if from Maharishi. Now he can't describe meditation without using it.
