That's actually a good point, and I agree with it.

However, it should be obvious from a few people
here that you don't actually have to have any
position within the TM organization to be as 
much of a True Believer as those who are. In
fact, I think that sometimes it actually *helps*
to perpetuate one's illusions about Maharishi
to have never met him, or even seen him, except
on videotape.
