Mick,I don't have much interesting in meditating these days - I guess my experience with Rawat has put me off - and I have also decided that seeking 'recreational euphoria' through meditation or other inward gazing activities is, for me at least, not healthy. For others, meditation has value. The person I know who has studied this subject more than anyone else I know is Mike Finch who was a long time premie. He has several interesting articles on his website which I recommend.
Good answer to the cult question from Jonx, eh?!
