TM Apologist Says -- People Quit Meditating Because It Works!

TM apologist and attorney Kurt Arbuckle is known for double speak that would do any TM apologist or lawyer proud. In this post, he explains why the majority of people who pay exorbitant fees to learn the Maharishi's technique to health, happiness, and enlightenment abandon it.

Kurt Arbuckle wrote:

"I don't know why you gave it up, but I assert that the vast majority of those who give it up after a period do so because it works. They get what they wanted and are therefore no longer motivated to take the time to do it. Anyone who is familiar with how cybernetic systems work would understand this."

So, this lawyer "asserts," no matter what the person does, it is proof that TM works:

People who continue to practice TM do so because it works.

Those who discontinue TM do so because it works.
The only thing his statement proves is that some people are more comfortable than others embracing non-falsifiable beliefs.

"The job of the writer is to describe the rose; that of the poet to sing its virtues; that of the artist to convey its beauty;
that of the lawyer to convince us that it's not a rose at all." -- Barnabus Kubiak
