It is hard to have a discussion with someone who knows everything,

they know everything), but my routine was do the TMSP at the local

born.
So, at that point, there was a major change in my lifestyle.
Now, again, I don't expect that you will be able to grasp, how that
could be, because you have a mindset that one is either, all in, or
all out, when it comes to TM, but do me a favor, will ya, and give it
shot?
You up for a major challenge like that?
Streeeeetch that brain a little.

Michael, Michael, just read the words on the screen. If you wish to
imbue some meaning that is not there, no one is going to stop you. No
one at this point expects you to have any standard of objectivity when
it comes to the TMO.
Regarding the fact that I do not practice the TMSP, this may again be
difficult to wrap around your head, but a person's spiritual path can
change over time. Just because you discontinue one practice, doesn't
mean that you disown it.
In my case, I entered the householder way of life, and so time spent
exclusively on spiritual pursuits was redirected in other ways.
And then also, the focus of one's spiritual journey may change from
being inward directed to more outward directed.
I perfectly understand that you may have a difficult time with these
concepts, since they involve nuances, and shades of grey, so to speak.
I am not sure why you often seem stuck in an either/or mentality.
Sometimes an event at a young age can cause one to get stuck at a
particular age emotionally.
I'm sure you will take that, as strictly an insult, but it is, as a
matter of fact, true.
On the other hand, maybe you consider yourself an exceptionally well
adjusted person.
Dunno.
I don't expect any of this to make an impression on you
