I have done TM for decades, as have most of the miiotnry who stuck with it. I used to feel this inability to deal with conflict too, which was, in hindsight, a sensitivity to my environment and attempts to integrate my growing Self awareness with my total environment. Granted it became pretty uncomfortable for me for awhile, having to face and recognize things I had avoided possibly for lifetimes. However, I persevered, the snakes became strings, so to speak, and TM continues to be an excellent technique for my ongoing Enlightenment. Jai Guru Dev, and thank you John for raising an excellent subject, and one sorely needing resolution by those honest and uncompromising seekers, for whom there is no stepping off point prior to full blown Self realization.
please could you send me your newsletter
You got it!
