Probably about everybody and their dog learned TM in Marin county in 
the 1970s.  As well as this, that and everything else.  It was the 
"thing to do."  I'd be surprised if Williams didn't.  Of course if he 
did then some would say he "needed a checking." BTW, I checked a few 
people with mental problems who might have done better to just stop 
meditating at least for a while.

According to a study by Otis, cited by michael in a recet post, a survey 
of long term TM meditators reported signs of a psychosis, suicide 
tendencies and nervous breakdowns. Also, body pain. As a long time TMer 
and TM Teacher, have you ever checked for these symptoms in your 
students or followed up with a simple written survey? The Otis study 
sounds kind of anecdotal, seeing as how there was no specified control 
group. Go figure.

Nope, TM is not to blame and Jumanji was a fun movie to watch.

He wouldn't have even needed to learn TM in order for TM to be 
blamed. Robin Williams was in Jumanji, which is kind of an Indianish 
sounding name. Bam! TM is to blame!---In

Om jeez that is depressing news this morning about Robin Williams. He 
really should not have ought gone and done that. Dang. Double dang. 
 I'll miss him. Next thing we'll learn was that Robin learned to 
meditate at one point and the anti-meditation lobby here will tell us 
here that it was all because he meditated that he killed himself.
