"How do you know you didn't just mature and grow up?  What was it about being a premie that made you "better?"  I think we all just told ourselves that and premies still believe it, but I have never seen any evidence that there is any truth to that." No, the change in me happened straight after contact with the DLM thing. Meeting the premies , hearing what they said ,reading what M. said and my own sincerity somehow changed me and I never went back to the way I was.Some of the changes were unnecessary bullshit: things I ate, clothes I wore,renunciation, donating,doing Maharaji's version of giving everything to him style "service"  and cr## like that...but there was some kind of a shift in me that was not superficial , was connected to an experience and that change will never be reversed.I think it could have happened through some other cult , charismatic movement or whatever...but for me at that time it just happened to be that one. ducks and posts....
