I think you 2 guys mean something completely different by "lowdown". I practiced TM for decades, did most every course possible, lived in ffld for decades and did some independent poking around as the kool aid wore off, but still knew only a fraction of the lowdown until I was put in touch with some ex personal secretaries of MMY, skin boys. Even they only know bits and pieces of what really goes on based on what their job was. The lowdown on the TMO is much more secret than most movts. Wilber may know some things about the practice, but practically nothing about the movt I'd wager.
