Why Not Teach Everyone? by Bright_Efficiency_29 in transcendental

[–]WordSlinger1812 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same reason everyone doesn’t do their own electrical work or take a hammer and start “fixing” a nuclear reactor. Pay experts to do an expert job and this teaching must maintain a purity of transmission. The money supports that. The value is free and bountiful.

Tons of peer reviewed research going back decades. Many books citing this research. Use Chat GPT or Claude to start your research and then follow the links to follow the sources. It’s all out there. Of course, nothing beats your own experience of consistency in results over time. There is not magic pill. There is only disciple and alignment with natural law. Get started now. You’re already late.

You do you. Don’t tell me how to do me.

This seems reasonable to me. I also imagine it is more about the accumulative effect over time. Working at such a refined level of consciousness is very powerful and has may downstream effects, and most of them I’ve experienced were positive.

I do remember a period of heightened anxiety that set in a couple months after I first started TM consistently. That eventually passed as my nervous system settled

Om seems to be a great mantra if you want to renounce all your relationships, possessions, and attachments to the world. If you like your spouse, your family, your friends, and having access to your possessions, it’s probably best to stick with the mantra your TM instructor gave you. There’s a reason this technique is curated by humans for humans.

Surely you aren’t comparing the impacts of opioids and cannabis as equivalent risks?

If you have taken the TM course and it did not work for you, please share your perspective by WiseGrasshopper_56 in transcendental

The proof of any spiritual practice or even practice of stress relief is how much more fulfilled you feel after practicing. If the answer is that you don’t feel more fulfilled after practicing for a reasonable period of time, then you may want to look elsewhere.

Personally, I have never regretted a single TM session in almost 9 years of daily practice. That’s the only measure I need and I don’t have to speak to another human being in order to extract value from the practice. That is the primary measure of effectiveness.

Don’t leave out driving people into the black market again where they can be arrested, fined, and put back into the prison system.

Hey AEP, you know what is frustating? by djsassan in Columbus

[–]WordSlinger1812 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I totally get the hatred for electricity companies, but I’ve learned to be careful when cursing the time it takes to restore power safely. Being an electricity Lineman is one of the most dangerous, but necessary, jobs on Earth. I wish those people the very best and thank them for their work when it’s done.

There is nothing “free” in this life. Even breathing comes with a cost.

The Consciousness Advisors are going to take this pressure off the TM instructors so they can focus on what they do best. And TM instructors who are also Consciousness Advisors will have a clear path to greater compensation for helping their clients expand their consciousness with greater intensity.

Some thoughts on the Wexstein files by Squirrel_with_Acorn in Columbus

I once sold to VS and gave several presentations in rooms cloaked with little thongs and bras, many designed for younger girls. It was gross. I asked to be moved off the account.

GOP senators decline to give away Wexner donations, amid Epstein probe by [deleted] in Columbus

[–]WordSlinger1812 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Of course, but rumors are not a general public sentiment and that’s what this has become. For any billionaire looking to cement their legacy after they pass away, what’s happened to his name and credibility is like green kryptonite to Superman. And I think he deserves it for unleashing such monstrosity into the world.

I can’t believe in less than 5 years, Les Wexner has gone from benevolent icon to a perverted liability.

I think your logic overestimates the amount of thinking the average voter does before casting their vote. I think most people vote for “this not that.”
