It was why they asked people who wanted to learn TM
whether they were currently in therapy.  (As I recall,
the TM-Sidhis application wanted to know whether you
had *ever* been in therapy.  I had been, years
previously, pre-TM, and said so, but it didn't keep me
off the course.)

As long as you're not going to turn around and
criticize the TMO for not screening out potential
nutcases who are likely to get into trouble with TM.

You don't get to criticize them both for screening
and for *not* screening, in other words.
