Vaj,
I haven't seen the film. But, yeah, the brainwashing at MSAE was there, but
not extra-there. It was about the same as any other parochial school with an
agenda to push besides reading, writing and arithmetic. Maharishi, Pope,
same deal. I was okay with it, because I actively engaged all my children
about philosophy -- regularly, daily. I wasn't allowing any movement creep
to abuse them for not being sycophants. We'd talk about how those who are
not yet enlightened can make mistakes and that we have to put up with this
until everyone evolves out of their pettiness. Like that.
It was only after decades that it became impossible to spin the fact that
all the dweebs and cretins and power-mongers and evangelists who had holed
up in movement niches were NOT evolving any faster and all the results of
TM for all of us were results from evolving merely due to the normal aging
processes. Period.
Try waking up to that and having four kids you've mindfully put into the
system.
Well, they all survived it, but I can't look them in the eye about it.
Shoulda shoulda shouldathat's me.

Science of Being and the Art of Living, and an obvious lover of
cucumber sandwiches. Yeah, whoa, what a glorious spiritual leader
this guy was. Gunna take me to the promise land.
I bought it.
Edg I thought of you when I watched David Wants to Fly for the first
time and they showed the kids at the Marshy School of the Age of
Enlightenment singing some sing-song SCI lullaby. I had to wonder
your reaction when you saw it - or was that something (this
brainwashing of the innocents) that you were already well aware of?
