Transcendental Meditation

[gilf]

Does anybody have any experience of transcendental meditation?. I'm currently doing the 4 day course which I am enjoying. However I foolishly looked around the internet today and there seems to be a fair amount of negativity. So has anybody got any first or second hand experience, both positive and negative.

If you are enjoying it and finding it useful and the organisers have not asked you to make over all your money to them or go out on the streets and ask for donations, (or suggested other dubious behaviours) then I would suggest that you ignore the negative comments and enjoy what you are doing

Thanks woofgang, yes you are correct, at no time has the teacher put any pressure on us to believe what he has told us. The course has now finished and there is no commitment to do anything, while others disagree there is no religious elements (other than a few hindu words) and no requirement to sign up for anything. The last session cleared a few things up. Also thanks to fraserjim, corny jokes always appreciated :)
