Please realize that I offered no advice to you, other than to read all sides of the issue before making a decision, so that it would be an informed decision. Personally, I believe that the TM movement has *many* cult-like qualities, but also believe that as cults go, it's a pretty benevolent one because it has never gotten its act together and never will. On the other hand, I know many people who are *very* happy with the education they received at MUM, and that is also a factor to be considered. Also, there are many people on this forum who *share* my view that the TM movement has many cultlike qualities, but who still live in Fairfield and would consider living nowhere else. As in all things, there are many "sides" to the issue. All that matters in the long run is what is important to *you*, not what others believe. DON'T be swayed by rhetoric one way or another. Based on your posts, you've only been analyzing the situation for a short time. You might want to give it a bit more consideration before making a decision. > --- In [email protected], TurquoiseB <no_reply@> > wrote: > > --- In [email protected], "sparaig" <sparaig@> wrote: > > > --- In [email protected], "object_programmer" > > > <object_programmer@> wrote: > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > I have applied for MUM and they said I will be receving I- > 20 > > > soon. > > > > I have some queires before taking up visa interview.
