Just spoke to Fred Travis (we're doing the animation project piecemeal so I don't freak out). On the topic of EEG and Yogic Flying, he says he did part of his PhD research on the subject and that he examined the EEG of athletic hopping and Yogic Flying hopping during the 6 seconds before someone actually started hopping about. In the last 2 seconds, just before the Yogic Fliers hopped (and you can't measure anything past that point, he agrees), EEG coherence in ALL parts of the brain in all frequencies went way up. Regardless of the ambiguities and inaccuracies of the advertising/brochures/posters, the main point, that practice of the Yogic Flying sutra induces high levels of EEG coherence in all frequencies in all parts of the brain, is accurate, according to Fred's research and the other stuff that they've published. What this means is unclear, though Fred agreed that the TM-Sidhis program is meant to move one towards Unity.
