One person's naive culty superstitious belief system mumbo jumbo is another person's grounded view of the dynamics underlying positive results from years of TM. When I say grounded view, I mean view, as in *literally seeing* the dynamics. Disagree with me if you like, but that is what I mean.
Unfortunately the overwhelming thirst of so many to see positive results from TM, and for the TMO to mood make about premature results, has led some, like yourself apparently, to throw the baby out with the bath water, to disavow any possible explanation that cannot be explained by self interest. It is unfortunate that such a thing happened, and yet given human nature, entirely predictable. If I just believe that all of this is plainly due to Settle's monetary contribution, I must also ask myself, why now?
