  • I'm very interested in TM, but something tells me that you're right when you say it shouldn't cost money. It's a contradiction to say that a person completely separate from you can tell you how to dive into yourself. I really think Lynch means well, though. I dig him, and he's obviously sincere.

  • because they want you to pay money for it

  • @feeny45 I went to a TM center in Boston (on Commonwealth Avenue) a couple of years ago. The folks there were very nice and sincere, but after the introductory lecture came the discussion of price. It was roughly $1600. No money no mantra.

  • @feeny45 I went to a transcendental meditation place in Boston. The folks there were very nice, but to go through the program it was something like $1800.

  • where/when does he say you have to pay for it?

  • @deathofamailman where/when does he say it costs money?

  • I love the music!!!

  • It's really interesting how most of Lynch's fans comment on here about how they like him, but TM is a scam and you don't need to pay to meditate. I agree that it is a total scam...its well over 1000 dollars to join....total BS. Close your eyes in a dark room and search inward...you are meditating. Do it everyday and you will get better at it and it will be more successful. There is only MEDITATION. You can't put another word in front of it and change the meaning.

  • @zelareka You don't need to pay money to get into meditation. Its as simple as closing your eyes. I don't mind supporting people that teach love and compassion and inner intelligence instead of violence, hate and greed. TM is not a scam or a money grabbing excercise. It costs money for people to teach it full time and to run centers where it can be practiced. You'd pay money for a concert or a movie, why not for a way to perhaps totally change your life for the better.

  • @zelareka Obviously someone is going to exploit it, as someone does everything. Why would you pay for it? The steps can be found with any search engine. There are just a few people out there who decided to teach it and charge, just as any "legitimate" institution does as compensation for bestowing upon you their collective knowledge. You can teach yourself almost anything that can be learned from school, eventually. Anyway, it's not a religion. It's a skill.

  • Lynch is brilliant, but I can't stand the music.
