And yet YOU are the one who goes a little insane every time someone suggests that a little subtle intention might be involved in the practice of TM. Seems to me that YOU feel that you know *exactly* how TM is "supposed to work." Otherwise, why would you get so emotional every time someone suggests a different way of seeing the practice of TM than you have? I mean, *really*, dude. Haven't you ever *noticed* how crazy you get whenever anyone suggests that TM might not be as completely "effortless" as you have been indoctrinated to believe it is? It seems to me that most people here have *no problem* with that concept, but that you and Judy do, and in spades. You both fly into "compulsive post mode" every time it comes up, and seem to feel compelled to defend the Holy Dogma Of Effort0 lessness as if it were the word of God and *needed* to be defended. For the record, I think it's *fine* for you to believe that TM is completely effortless, even if many others -- having practiced it -- don't agree with you. What I'm interested in is WHY you get so emotional and defensive every time you encounter someone who doesn't believe that it's absolutely, completely effortless. WHY do you think that you do this? And do you think that this is a *positive* thing to do? I'm honestly curious. This effortlessness thang is obviously a *serious* hot button for both you and Judy. You both react as if you had been personally attacked every time it comes up, and people (including Maharishi) suggest that some subtle effort IS involved with TM. But WHY do you react like this? Doncha think that this is a pretty interesting reaction? To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
