No, I did not. Once again you put words into people's mouths that they never said. When I was younger I took a course on Transcendental meditation and was taught to meditate by chanting the word they gave us. I was told this was purely for health and not religious. They lied to me. I was given the name of a god to chant and so was everyone else and I learned this later.
I said this in response to your post saying meditation is not religious, I think you used the term atheistic. My point is that Transcendental meditation made that claim and that claim was a lie.
Meditation, other than how the Bible commands it, is bad. It's forbidden by our Bible in many places.
As for TM, once you get through the entire course, the conclude the membership with a visit to their pantheon of false gods shrine.
It is a dark sinister looking room with monstrous looking idols all around. Each is lit by candles and incense.
TM is the most popular organization of Hinduism in America and Europe.
The other forms of Hinduism/ meditation and Buddhism/ meditation follows a similar format. There are some differences, but it's all a means of contacting or summoning demons.
