Looking through the whole Batgap list now I can see some lot of interviewees 
whose spiritual pollination or incubation included ™ in their biography though 
they may not be affiliated directly with ™now. This is a longer list in itself. 
™ like reading Yogananda’s book was an aspect that was pervasive in 
counter-culture to the orthodox at a time in a demographic shift of the 
‘spiritual but not religious’ transformation that has taken place in the last 
50 years. Batgap coming as it has as a phenomena in the information age seems 
emblematic of a (progressive) transformation that is going on.

 Advertising aside, it does appear the Superradiance experiment is actually a 
failure. Why not just cap it off and do something that is worthwhile in some 
other way?
Leadership is an important contribution, but there could be other reasons why 
people don't come. What is the level of fulfillment for people who do do the 
program, but for some other reason do not come?
What are peoples' experience of the techniques in general? When experiences are 
published, they are the cream of the crop, but what about the average joe? Lots 
of peoples' experiences of meditation and the sidhi program are not spectacular 
by any means. How do you entice them?

 Yes, thanks for seeing this. . 

 It should be important in the survival of the Dome meditation right now that 
any who have access to levels of the ownership in TM where policy is made could 
be copying and pasting points of this exchange below in to communication with 
those power people at the top. Engage whoever and wherever the power is vested, 
where the levers of power are.  Send ‘em a letter, mail, e-mail, imessages, 
facebook messenger, phone them, tweet them, however. 

 The Dome meditation attendance numbers are in crisis. Month by month these 
numbers continue to dwindle. The metrics of this situation are foreboding. 
Numbers are dropping in a consistency by 10 and 20 a month for many many months 
now. This is not just an administrative problem but one of leadership. The 
recent month attendance numbers are not just lower but now hitting lows lower 
than they were prior to the beginning of the late assembly in 2006.  

 There evidently is a core cultural problem in leadership of the TM movement 
that for a cohesion in survival of this community needs to be proactively 
addressed right now. Everyone’s help is needed on pressing this now.

 Dear Drs. Hagelin and Nader:

 Now that the pundits are gone from Maharishi Vedic City, Iowa could you write 
the membership application guidelines for the Domes anew?

 The old guidelines are yet too inflammatory towards superradiance as they are 
cobbled and wordsmithed.  Please sit and write with a new piece of paper a new 
and fresh Dome application guideline now for membership in the group programs, 
now the pundits are gone. Start with a fresh sheet of paper.  Get it down to 
simple: did someone learn the ™ programs and that this is what they will do in 
the group programs for superradiance. 

 This would be a good time to just go in and gut, drop the clause from the 
guidelines that remains excluding from membership people who spend money on 
‘non-Maharishi’ jyotish and yagya. The earnest reason it was put in there 
originally evidently has gone away. It is time to just get rid of that clause 
in the membership application guideline. There is no sense now to having the 
office staff there investigating that one on people anymore. 

 The pundit program had been a long endured suction of resource out of the 
Fairfield community. That clause about people spending monies on 
‘non-Maharishi’ jyotish and yagya along with the couple of other clauses that 
are left there as some kind of fealty test within the membership guidelines is 
just needlessly inflammatory to succeeding with the Dome attendance numbers and 
superradiance in Fairfield now.
