I wonder if my experience with TM is common: For the first 10 minutes I am at a very specific place with regard to being aware of my surroundings, my body, and my surface thoughts. Then as if on cue, the second ten minutes I drop down into a noticably deeper place, thick with silence, rest, and inner spheres of being. Just curious what others' experiences are and if they've had experience of this marked 10 minute boundary. Been going like that for years.:- )
