Leaving aside questions about whether or not TM will be of value to them (and thereby of
greater value to the rest of the world because the rich and elite are getting something out
of their TM practice), the decision to charge lots of money for TM practice to appeal
directly to the elite is perfectly valid and sane.

would he hire expensive consultants to teach in-house? Keep in mind that he has to justify
ANY expense by documenting it to the board of directors. Where's the 30 year's research
on the minet technique documented? Can you PROVE to the accountant's satisfaction that
the minet site instructions have the same effect as TM? Can he prove that setting aside 20

but not with the website technique, regardless of whether or not there is a measureable
difference between them. No-one is going to sponsor the measurements in the first place
so the assertion can never be proven to the accountants' satisfaction.
