Good that they lowered the fee. I know in 2005 when I was volunteering at a school for at risk kids, it was $2000. The instructors and I even joked about it being a bit of a “caste system,” like India itself. Yes, I do know they are very compassionate about scholarships. They would do well to offer the student fee to disabled veterans.

I will alter the terminology to say “a reservoir of infinite creative energy, that fuels the psyche.” All ways of defining TM return to the same place…it is good stuff!

I too have been practicing TM and have found it hugely successful and valuable  in my life. Awesome what David Lynch is creating with the Warriors for Wellness program. The more folks who can experience the benefits of TM the better. :)

I do TM too but I personally wouldn’t call it a means of tapping into “psychic energy”. It’s a peaceful recharging of my inner battery. Maybe that’s just different terminology. FYI the cost to learn TM is $1500 (or $750 for students etc.) and I know people who’ve received scholarships from their local TM offices.
