Mixed emotions is understandable. If one is famous with money, the rules go out the door. If one is a step away from those items of definition, one must behave, themselves or face a back turning order, in particular to the idolization for fundraising needs, if you don't have the extra dough, don't come a knockin and keep your nose clean. The need is there to raise money, but at what cost? How many are turned away for living their lives in spontaneous right action or is spontaneous right action supposed to be approved first? Open the domes for those who have been sent away for minor offenses, like reading a book of another Guru, seeing another Guru or writing a book about a subject that is universally known in the universe, applying too much vata oil to your dome blankey, and snoring? lol Tight butts are fad!

The need is there to raise money, but at what cost? How many are turned away for living their lives in spontaneous right action who donate a good portion of their regular living dough? Is spontaneous right action supposed to be approved first?

Vedic Meditation sounds like someone conned the writer. The website everyone is referred to is a individual website and it is currently down. Betcha the Australian TM org is consulting their lawyers right now. L.
