DETAILS
Join us for a lively, free Web Event, April 2, 8 pm EST, to learn a side of the Transcendental Meditation story they won't tell you.
TM. Concerned scientists question research claiming benefits. Former members allege secret agendas. Clergy are unsure if TM contradicts their religion.
In this atmosphere, the David Lynch Foundation sponsors Paul McCartney & Friends in concert April 4, 2009. Reminding many of Tom Cruise's marketing for Scientology.
DLF states this "World Harmony Concert" will raise millions to introduce "TM/Quiet Time" into public schools.
We believe this violates the separation of Church & State.
Many consider meditation valuable. Our concern is religious meditation forms do not belong in public schools.
Including Special Statement by Mitch Kapor, founder of Lotus Development Corporation, Electronic Frontier Foundation, founding Chair Mozilla Foundation, former TM teacher.
