Transcendental Meditation is a secretive mantra meditation movement founded by an indian yogi/guru. Most research on meditation benefits is on TM. To learn it, one has to pay for and participate in a course led by a certified TM teacher.

Does anybody here have had experience with TM, participated in a course and received a mantra chosen by their teacher?

Do you really need a teacher to learn it? Is the course worth it or just profiteering? Anything else one should know before going to a course themselves?

    the scientology is approved by people like Tom Cruise. Might be better avoiding though, even if Mission Impossible is enjoyable.

      Fair point! Didn’t notice my bias there. Guess there is a scheme to fall for for everyone.
