So Doug...you live in Fairfield, right? [ This is also a question for anyone who lives in Fairfeld and who wants to 'log in' with an opinion. ] You must run into people around town, those who are currently attending this course. Well, presumably these people have looked around the dome and have noticed the low numbers of people in them, given the overall "pool" of Sidhas in the statistics you list above. What do they THINK about those low numbers? I mean, here on FFL we're used to people questioning their beliefs in or assumptions about the TM movement. But I would suspect that many of the folks currently on this course are *not* used to challenging their assumptions about the TMO. But at this point it simply *can't* have slipped past them that from that pool of 27,000 Sidhas, Maharishi can inspire only 1400 to come to a course. That must be a mindboggler for them. They "heard the call" and went to the course. And now they look around the room and see how few people in the United States actually did that. A few of them must be thinking, "Are there really only 1400 of us LEFT in the whole United States?" And this must be compounded by realizing that at this point the TMO actually has to offer to PAY people to increase those numbers. So what are the people on the courses saying? What do they think about all of this? Are they concerned, or is there some movement thought- stopper that "explains it all" and enables them never *to* think about the implications of these low numbers? I'm honestly curious, if anyone knows. TIA... To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
