Does this mean that TM is not worth their while? > **End** The assertion was that the flying technique resulted in floating, rather than hopping or bouncing. So, after I took the course, I did understand that he was promoting the course/techniques. And I did, too, and for a long time thereafter. Perhaps you misunderstand my position re TM. I love it, and do it everyday, recommend it to anyone who inquires about it, and initiate the few who have asked me to since I stopped officially teaching a long time ago. I rarely do the siddhi techniques anymore but I like them, too. I don't get any siddhis but do like that form of meditation. But I like the mantra meditation more.
