Author Description

This book is a compilation of Q&A's between its author, Ye Tian, and her friends who were curious about Transcendental Meditation (TM).Ye learned TM in Chicago in January 2010 and has since served as an "ask-me-anything" person for those in her social circle who are also interested. After speaking with Ye, her friends usually get realistic expectations of TM and make better-informed decisions about whether to learn or not learn.This book was born entirely out of this purpose - to answer potential questions from people who are unsure whether TM would be a good fit for them. This book includes a basic introduction to TM, a comparison of TM to other meditations, and a few questions worth considering when the reader is deciding whether to learn TM.It is very important to note that, although the book mentions in a few places the basic procedure of the TM technique and comments on self-learning in a neutral language, it neither teaches TM nor is a guide for self-learning.
