 the

  rather direct experience only.
   For example, I've been initiated into the Ramakrishna mantra by 
an
  authorized Monk but there was little power in that mantra 
compared 
 to
  TM. In the Sant Mat tradition alone, I've been initated by
  representatives of Kirpal Singh, Charan Singh, Thakur Singh, 
 Darshan
  Singh, and the Eckankar Guru Paul Twitchell.  Nope, no power in 
 those
  mantras!.  I've been initiated by Muktananda and Guru Maharaji.  
 Far
  more power in the TM mantra!.  
   So what's your comparison test?  First, were you initiated by an
  authorized rep of MMY, or not; and how did your experience of TM
  compare with the mantras of other traditions?
   If you weren't initiated into TM (as taught by MMY), then you
  aren't qualified to render an opinion; since the taste test 
isn't
  possible without direct experience.
And who the Hell is Dana?
 
 Hi, Excellent detective work sinhlnx! 
 
 I can confirm your supposition here. Vaj has never been initiated 
 into, nor taught, TM as taught by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. 
 
 After I read your piece, I did some research, and some pattern 
 matching, and it is unmistakable. You are correct in asserting 
that 
 Vaj has been saying 'TM' but meaning mantra meditation, **NOT 
TM**. 
 
 It has been his tiny little 'secret', but after reading your 
words, 
 I had enough clues to know precisely how to look at Vaj to get the 
 answer, and the answer as said is unmistakable and conclusive-- 
Vaj 
 has never learned TM, Practiced TM, or taught TM as taught by 
 Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. I suspect he will be surprised reading this!
 
 So all of this time, he has been claiming to be speaking about TM 
as 
 a former practitioner and teacher. Not a good thing at all. Pure 
 arrogance on his part.
 
 Oh well, I suppose it was good while it lasted, eh Vaj?


I made a post way back, concluding that Vaj had not learned TM. 
It was obvious from his posts. He has learned lots of other 
techniques from the internet though. When he says he has been 
initiated it means he learned something from the internet.

(I also, predicted that Turquoise B was a Wino, a fact he has 
recently confirmed...but he is trying to change that and I wish him 
well)

Ah, yes, typical behaviour of winosneed to feel a wino group 
bonding, then change the subject entirely. It is ok to admit it. It 
will help you.

You said it yourself. 
Below you are clearly saying that you love cheap wine, but your 
drinking problem is so bad that you have to stop entirely to make a 
break from it's destructive effects on your body and mind. 

Quote from Turquoise B:

It's really astounding how many good wines there are here, and how 
cheap some of them are ...But as it turns out, I haven't had any of 
them for a few weeks now because I'm on my Summer Get This Old Body 
Back In Shape Diet and Exercise Program. Aging (as a result of 
drinking) may not slow down one's mind, but it sure wreaks havoc on 
one's metabolism. 

Only a wino would be feeling such long-lasting and bad effects from 
drinking wine. Most people drink it in moderation and are just fine. 
Danger sign for your own wellbeing is that winos can never admit 
that they are winos.
