When I talked on the phone to Mark Landau (Marshy's personal secretary for five years) he was emphatic that during the TTC's he helped to run, the teachers were absolutely NOT told the meaning of the mantras, he felt Marshy deliberately withheld the info to keep the teachers in the dark. For wha

its a Hindu devotional practice designed to pull the favor of particular goddesses to the practitioner - call it what you like - the TMO does, so you can call it anything that it is not, as is the TMO's tradition. On Tue, 3/25/14, authfri...@yahoo.com
