Meredith always takes the negative view, but I would hate it if the out-of- towners on this board allowed his comments to fuel their already jaundiced beliefs about what happens to those who are involved in the TM movement. My guess is that rates of illness, whether mental or physical, are no higher in the sidha community than anywhere else, and possibly lower. The truth as I see it is that this is a vibrant community that has done and continues to to amazing things for Fairfield. The creative energy is remarkable, and many people who take advantage of all that is on offer here enjoy excellent health, physical, mental and spiritual.
