No, release of stress.
It's also an affirmation of MMY's own teaching. TM is supposed to
be a cult or a guru/disciple path or a bakti path.
Indeed, I contend that those who make it such are off the program.
Having said that, I hope I myself do not come across on this forum
as too much of an MMY-basher because that's not my intention. I've
been doing TM twice a day for the better part of 33 years and think
it's the best thing since sliced bread. But I think it's much more
healthy for both my own psychology and the health of the TMO when
well-deserved and much-needed introspection and critical analysis of
the TMO and MMY's policies and decisions are actually
talked about,
discussed, and debated.
I actually think that this forum may be the only such venue for this
around (amt is too full of other discussions) . Indeed, I consider
it a good work on Rick's part (a "mitzvah" if you will) for starting
this group.

there is a nother consciousness at hand. In the world especially US
there are many people who are born cryers. If they dont see where
they are getting their satisfaction they cry fraud.

at all the more that has come about in the last 30 years. maybe it
