An idea for a thread, just for fun. We all know that the TM movement is jargon-heavy. But are there bits of jargon that have been twisted over time into fun ways of expressing experiences and concepts that *no one in the world* but someone who has paid their dues in the TM movement would understand.
I'm thinking of phrases like "full in the knowledge," which...uh...jiggled its way into conversations here some time back. My favorite was invented by a TM teacher friend back in L.A., many years ago. We had been to see a movie that turned out to be rather long and unfulfilling. As we left the theater, my friend turned to me and said, "Well, that was a real boatride." I asked what exactly he meant, and he said, "You know how it is...Maharishi announces some special moonlight boatride, and you're really looking forward to it. But then you actually get onto the boat and it's cold and damp and uncomfortable and absolutely nothing is happening, and after about half an hour all you want to do is go home." :-) ------------------------ Yahoo!
