Dear manoj ~ when I first started TM, I heard this same thing. More

recently, people have been telling me I don't have to choose between this guru

or

that one, but as I have gone along, particularly as I have become more ill, I

see the wisdom of this boat analogy. What if one boat starts going faster than

the other? What if one goes in a totally different direction?

I have begun to see that part of this boat metaphor is really about energy,

attention and focus. Jai Ma ~ Linda
