I have the same feeling Barry. And I worry about some of my long time friends who are still heavily invested in the TMO and MMY. When the movement implodes after MMY leaves town (I envision a financial tug of war between various Shrivastava and Varma factions....those outside the family don't have a prayer IMO) there may be a boom in mid and late life crisis exit counseling in FF. On the bright side, there are some good things happening in the movement. TM is being taught in some inner-city high schools with great success and in some other schools around the world. There are some bright, balanced people trying to do things efficiently and ethically. It may be that they and their efforts will rise to the top like cream, and perhaps even form their own autonomous factions (although they’re pretty loyal folks), and that the weirder stuff will splinter off. I don’t think the whole thing is going to die. The official movement may continue to whither, if it doesn’t change, but various unofficial offshoots may thrive. There may also be divisions within the movement, as there are now, whose benefactors protect them from cash-sucking Indian nephews by insisting that their continued support is conditional upon their direct oversight.
