One comment: Maharishi's "Vedic Science" isn't scientific in the modern sense of the word,
but only in the sense that it is a systematic exploration of knowledge. Modern Science
requires a certain concensus of practitioners based on objective/external observation,
whereas Vedic Science is strictly personal and subjective/internal. There are overlaps in
the field of practice and study  (e.g. TM practice leading to lower blood pressure, etc), but
they are two distinctly different kinds of "science."
