TM always say "lots of publications and research", "scientific evidence in quantum physics" But they never show clearly one of thouse studies and also base some "religious practice" on physics is the worst thing u can do. Because physics changes and works with "models" of the universe made by humans, they never say that "the truth is.." they only say "thinks works like..or thinks works with this"<br />My mom is MT teacher, imagine.I am studying engineering and she (who only know a bit of math/physics and doesnt know about science models) comes and tells me that TM is "science based" and talks me about quantum, with some draws that seems like a fairy tale for kids. As i dont talk when I dont know about a topic I told her, "i dont know if that is truth so I will wait for my physics modern class" and she tells me "but i dont need to know to say that this is logical and truth". For my best this month I have started my modern physics class, now I am with relativity but in a month and a half I will be learning an introduction to quantum physics in order to be prepear to say with racional arguments "TM doesnt give valid physics arguments".<br />When mum told me to learn TM I told her OK (because I wanted to see if her personal experience will be as mine), I will tell you that first months it was cool, relaxation etc..a new.. but i started to notice that if I didnt meditate in the morning I had a terrible headheck, so it became like some "addiction" so i said, "i dont like addictions" and i left it.<br />I can tell you that for me the best way to be good is to take a nup in the afternoon of one hour.<br />But mum still belives slighltly in TM and if i tell her something she gets angry and also tells me that "everyone has is conciusness, accept what your mind lets u, and this is not a religion".<br />About the researchs I would like to see a good evidence of a real test, I mean different people learning TM WITHOUT knowing what it is ,what is expected and its benefits, etc etc..
