Yeah, definitely not liking you, Levinson. If we ever meet at a party (more likely to happen than not) we should agree to snub each other.
please let me know if this concert will be shown on tv?
A huge beatle fan Norm!!!!
Here are VERY INFORMATIVE websites
from TM investigators & ex-TM members
who provide insider info. of the facts (behind the facade) including: deliberate deception, fascist organizational framework, pay-to-play crowned Rajas, duped & fleeced (advanced TM) ‘flyers’,
sexual discrimination as to women’s roles, violations of the U.S. Constitution (as per U.S. District Court & U.S. Appeals Court), & advocacy of censorship (!), etc. –

has a compendium of news articles from various sources about T.M. organization, history & issues –

The concert was fantastic (and was recorded for PBS) as this cast of legendary musicians flowed through set after set of inspiring rock and roll with many artists making guest appearances on songs for others. During the many stage set ups David Lynch, Laura Dern, Howard Stern and Jerry Seinfeld added comments and comedy on the positive influence Transcendental Meditation has had in their lives. Background film clips of youngsters in schools around the world who practice TM gave us hope for a new era of peace and happiness. A charming and delightful evening that transcended all my expectations! http://www.SkepticsOnTM.org
Thanks for this great article on the Paul McCartney concert. I was at the concert and it was beyond expectation – simply wonderful. And in support of the great cause to bring Transcendental Meditation to “at-risk” children in schools. I have been doing TM for many years and know first-hand of its great effect in reducing stress. Well done David Lynch, and thanks to all involved.
Is this TM “Puja” ceremony chanting appropriate for a public school ? — especially when there are deliberate deception & obfuscation by the TM missionaries when communicating with school staff, students & parents — Here is an excerpt (translated from Sanskrit) of chanting that occurs during the standard TM “Puja” initiation ceremony (along with an altar, a painting of a Guru, incense, candles & offerings) — in which students each receive a “secret” (& supposedly unique & “meaningless”) mantra. However, in fact, each TM student’s mantra is actually derived from the name of one of several Hindu deities; these generic mantras are routinely assigned based solely on the student’s age in accordance with a chart — “To LORD NARAYANA, to lotus-born BRAHMA the Creator, to VASHISHTHA to SHAKTI and his son, PARASHAR, To VYASA, to SHUKADEVA, to the great GAUDAPADA, to GOVINDA, ruler among the yogis, to his disciples… I bow down…” source: http://www.trancenet.net/secrets/puja/tradt.shtml

The show was fantastic. I hope they will eventually come out with a DVD. The set list missed Junior’s Farm. And he mentioned Obama, he didn’t dedicate the song to him.
ZF kids are great. She sounds like she is so smart. Its like Jeff and the girls were niwtaig for me Friday to get my liscense and while niwtaig Kora picks up a book and starts reading it. She is seven also. Amazing really. Glad to hear she asked questions and you answered them to the best of your knowledge for her though. Kids need that. I have been around where parents lie to there children and wont give them the fact they are looking for. Not good for the child.
