 According to James Dierke, the transformation in his school, where Most of 
the students in our school have a family member who has been shot, who did the 
shooting, or who saw a shooting, was what led to him receiving the 2008 NASSP 
Middle School Principle of the Year award.

 For THAT school at least, TM DID change their world.
 

 But MJ was obviously talking about the Maharishi Effect, which is a claimed 
non-local and therefore paranormal phenomena that is supposedly caused by 
groups of meditators, whereas these articles are obviously referring just to 
the people meditating and not the surrounding area.

jibber-jabbering. Not to mention he was a clumsy oaf with the dishes he 
was supposed to be washing and drying. It's probably not complicated.


Apparently getting fired for incompetence still upsets him even twenty 
years later. Some people never get over the youthful rejection from 
their peers, so they go on social media to try and get help. I wonder 
how that self-help Kung Foo is working out for him?

//
The purpose of practicing the Foo is to be able to tap into the

Chi.//Everyone already knows that. Sometimes having two beliefs both at 
the same time causes a cognitive dissonance. He has been complaining 
about how he hates the whole idea of self-improvement and motivational 
talks  - that it was a con by the Maharishi to get his money and he fell 
for it, only the money the Maharishi got from him - was money he got 
from the Maharishi.

There exists an early book on Maharishi which it seems few people
have been aware of. It contains information that contradicts
recent accounts of Maharishi early life and the early movement and
shows those accounts to be very superficial and biased . It
involves first hand accounts from individuals in India.

According to James Dierke, the transformation in his school, where 
Most of the students in our school have a family member who has been 
shot, who did the shooting, or who saw a shooting, was what led to 
him receiving the 2008 NASSP Middle School Principle of the Year award.

According to this San Francisco article, despite there being 9 
shootings in the neighborhood of the school in the month of December 
2013 alone, the school was recently found to be the happiest school 
in San Francisco:

For THAT school at least, TM DID change their world.

Read it years ago - nothing to write home about - I am more 
interested in his first book, Meditations of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in 
which he states very clearly the mantras he gave out are the names of 
gods, Hindu gods no less. So much for the meaningless sounds. The 
only meaningless sounds that ever issued forth from his lying mouth 
were his statements of lifelong celibacy and his predictions of world 
change from everyone doing TM.

accounts of Maharishi early life and the early movement and shows 
those accounts to be very superficial and biased .  It involves first
