/This all so much Woo - there's nothing magical about repeating a sound or
a phrase.
Let's just be honest: you're probably not going to reach enlightenment in
5-7 years or produce a single enlightened student. You're never going to
fly or levitate. You can't cause it to rain by casting spells. You can pary
all you want to to the Hindu gods but at some point you just need to face
reality.

Especially if you get the wrong mantra. Mantras have specific
effects, some can calm and some can stimulate. If you're already
sluggish (kapha) then a pitta or vata reducing mantra might not be
good for you. You need a stimulating mantra. I think MMY thought
that people who got a TM (pitta reducing) mantra would just move on
to something else like they do in India. And I have mentioned before
reading a book circa 1980 by a chiropractor who said that meditation
might not be for everyone and some need to jog or walk instead.
