When I learned the TM-Sidhis in 1984, I had to write out, in long-hand, a paragraph dictated to me over the phone from the TM-SIdhis course office, saying that I understood that the TM-Sidhis were for the development of consciousness, and that I understood that no-one was guaranteeing I was going to obtain any kind of special power. Then I had to sign it, date it, and mail it back to them. THEN they would accept me on the TM-Sidhis course. Anyone who learned after doing that has no defensible way to sue on those grounds, I suspect, and of course, that was the point. What, they told you it was for developing supernatural powers - see Patanjali and Marshy's TMSP teaching videos for further details - and then made you write a letter that you understood it wasn't! I didn't have to do that but I did have to sign a lengthy contract absolving them of any responsibility for any unforseen problems etc. I asked for a copy and they refused which renders it legally invalid which amused me as I didn't worry if I had to sue. But then I wasn't worried because I'd seen "the physics of yogic flying lecture" and knew it was all about gaining super powers even if they wouldn't admit it and was told by the TMO that almost everyone masters one or two of them. Funny thing is we all know it's rubbish really, I mean deep down, but they don;t do much to dissuade the newbies, the idea of consciousness being the unified field has to have some amazing use if that is really what you are experiencing and influencing - there isn't much point otherwise. If the TMSP is simply for personal development they'll have to admit the Maharishi Effect is nonsense at some point, that's if we follow this line of reasoning to it it's logical conclusion.

Also, I notice that I often feel graceful in my actions, even if it's something simply like walking. And definitely less mind chatter!

I learned because of the prediction that mind body coordination would improve. For me that prediction has been spot on. And my first "flight" was pretty powerful, leading me to think that some profound transformation was occurring. I've known I'm no St Joseph Cupertino so haven't minded about no actual levitation. How do you know that your mind-body coordination has improved, anything in particular? I did it for ten years and can't say I noticed any changes anywhere!

I was frothing at the mouth and babbling all night. Highly speedy. I can't believe they are legal for adults let alone children, and some people knock them back like I drink water! I think a class action suit against the TMO would be workable and lucrative because it's actually taught that the TMSP develops paranormal powers (the clue is in the name) and they even publish "scientific" lectures about how it works to entice the unwary into thinking there's a physical basis for it all. Given the amount of time I spent doing it when I could have been earning a decent crust, I would say that a round figure of £1 million ought to ease the pain of still being held to the ground by gravity. I might want an extra million to compensate me for the embarrassment of having to admit I fell for it too. Now we can watch the TB's claiming they only learnt for self improvement reasons and don;t care that they never developed any magical powers.

Are you angry about the cash you lost chasing that dream of flying? Do your friends and acquaintances now laugh at you for being so credulous? Good news! You may be entitled to compensation. Energy drink "Red Bull" settled two class-action lawsuits this week, agreeing to pay $13 million because their famous slogan 'Red Bull gives you wings' isn't true. Anyone who bought a drink from January 1, 2002 to October 3, 2014 is eligible to receive a $10 cash payment - regardless of whether there was a receipt for proof. Here's one of the ads they ran. If people can now sue for such obviously idiotic claims it only goes to show what a dumbed-down society we are living in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K31dg86OmuM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K31dg86OmuM
