I think your friend's observation is interesting and quite accurate in many ways but I somewhat disagree with his assessment that the TM teachers don't care anymore. I think they DO care. I think they care very much and have never stopped caring. I care. But like many I am disillusioned. I'll give two reasons. The first is one that applies, I believe, almost universally, to those teachers that "care" but no longer will run off to, say, an Invincibility Course when MMY calls for it. The second reason will be more personal and one that applies more specifically to me although there is, I believe, a significant demographic of this mindset as well: 1) THE BOY WHO CRIED WOLF factor. It's hard to get excited about becoming a recert or coming to the Invincibility Course when every few months for virtually the past 30 years MMY comes out with THE NEXT GREAT THING (as I think Barry once called it). Yawn. I mean, why should I disrupt my life once again -- as I've done several times in my life -- because of an urgent call from MMY when I know that once HE loses interest in it that his attention will get diverted in a few months to something else? And we all know that this WILL happen. 2) Betrayal. I strongly feel that MMY has betrayed some very sacred tenets of the Movement. I won't bore you all by going into them because I've done so countless times on this forum. But I am not predisposed to go off to some course once again when he has said and done things that go against the very core of the principles upon which I joined the TMO in the first place. I would LOVE to be on the Invincibility Course...it would be sheer bliss...but I just can't knowing that I would possibly get very upset once I got there and had to be exposed to TMO bullshit. I'd feel trapped. So I know my limitations and stay away. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
