 Thanks. But don't you have to adopt full- or half-lotus to do the "hopping" 
sidhi? 
 

 And if a TM teacher hadn't taken the sidhi courses wouldn't he/she be sending 
out a message to newbies that those advanced courses aren't such a big deal?

 I take it you can do the full lotus posture. I never got beyond the 
sitting-in-a-chair stage. Do you have to be able to do the cross-legged bit to 
qualify as a teacher of TM?

 
 No.  However the real purpose of many of the yoga asanas is to prepare one to 
sit in either half-lotus or full lotus.
 
 
 
 I see there's a book showing how to master the position.
 
 
 Re the fall-out from the Greek fiasco: I'd wager serious money that it ends up 
with the Fed having to supply lines of credit to Europe! Another Marshall Plan 
and we'll see if Europe's politicians can get it right this time around . . .

 How could you do TMSP on the beach? Inflatable life raft or some such?
 

 LOL, no this was long before my life as a TMer. Would like to try meditating 
there though - nice and quiet when you get to an isolated spot. The trouble 
with sitting still on a beach is that insects find you, there are some mighty 
big and fast spiders out there, not conducive to deep relaxation.
 
 
 What we need is one of these:
 
 

 Could go yogic flying down the beach, that'd raise some eyebrows!

   The Greeks vote for an end to the "austerity" politics that the EU and IMF 
have imposed on them since they had to be rescued from bankruptcy. Be 
interesting to see what happens next, some of them might have to delay 
retirement past the age of 50, and other horrors. 
 
 
 They should never have been allowed to join the Euro anyway, all these poor 
countries playing on a level field with Germany and France, it was bound to end 
in tears. So they might as well get it over with and go back to the Drachma. 
But with all money connected worldwide we'll all feel the effects of a break-up 
in the Euro.
 
 
 Interestingly the UK has similar levels of public debt, the difference with us 
is our creditors still think we might be able to pay it back if we destroy more 
public services and sell the remains to the private sector so the people we owe 
money to can make even more out of us.
 
 
 It's all gone horribly wrong somewhere, the banks wreck society and have to be 
bailed out by the government who say they don't have that sort of money lying 
around so the banks say don't worry, we'll lend it to you. £1.5 trillion later 
and we still don't know what's going to be required to sort it out. But pity 
the Greeks, their biggest export is strained yoghurt and there's only a few of 
them who pay tax, the rest work for the government....
 
 
 I had the best summer ever living on beaches on Greek islands, I got all Jason 
and the Argonauts cooking fish and potatoes over an open fire every night. Once 
a week we'd go to a taverna and drink in the culture with dancing and ouzo then 
watch the stars come out over the sea. All rather excellent. I'd do it again in 
a heartbeat but I don't know if it's still possible now everything is 
Euro-legal. Are people allowed to just sleep rough on beaches anywhere? Sleep 
on the decks of ferries to save money? Loads of European kids used to do it for 
a cheap summer holiday in paradise, nowadays most are too worried about how 
dossing about will look on their CV's. Fucking politicians ruin everything..
