Attempting to equate my direct experiences and the experiences of others with Guru Dev to your description above, is more than lacking - particularly after the evidences I've given in the post, from TTC instruction, Brahmachari Sattyanand, other initiators and TMers and from Guru Dev himself according to his biography. I'm very familiar with what extremist Christians actually experience and don't experience, having lived among them for some time. There is NO comparison - just as there is no comparison between experiencing contemporary Christianity and experiencing the legitimate practice of TM.
