Ironically, TM didn't use to need silly things such as manifesting
ash for its "street cred". Providing a simple, easy technique was
all that was necessary.
And then the equivalent of manifesting ash was -- and I think I'm

into the equation: the flying technique. And that was the beginning
of the end as far as I'm concerned. ALL street cred was lost.
