The Essence of TM is the Flying Sutra not the Mantra

The basic lesson that each Religion teaches is to surrender to the sovereign-will of God and leave the consequences of deeds, well done, to the Lord Himself. It is His will and your only duty is to shape yourself into a fit instrument.
To suppress the assertive ego, disciplines have been laid down in every Religion, by every compiler of moral codes, by every educator and reformer of human morals.
But the oldest, most-effective and the most successfully practised system is the body of directives laid down in the Vedas and Shastras of India.
Baba

There is always a reason when something is inside reflected in the inner master and it is like a milestone telling me that something important is done.

Do you know people who had problems to get away with TM?
I guess most of problems people do have when giving up TM is because they give up the program.
Baba said that we should never change a mantra because it is a double sin, we have not been careful enough to take a mantra from someone who is not serious and we give it up, because the inner master is our higher self and it is about self-realization.
Whatever mantra it is connected to the higher self is therefore, part of us. If we give it up, we give up a part of ourselves.

Patanjali

We keep on with the TM-mantra and give up the siddhis program because that doesn’t work.
The problem is not the sutra, but it is practiced wrongly. And the TM-mantra seems to just preparing the mind and the essence of TM is not the TM-mantra but the Patanjali flying sutra, and not the sutras before, those are repeated only twice, but the main sutra is about flying. It is done every program, that means twice a day ten minutes and that includes the movement of body and is therefore stronger than the TM mantra.

I wondered because I went on with the TM mantra and still there were signs that I was cut off, uprooted and not in inner connection with that part in me. That was the reality I had to face in Baba's presence and I didn't know why, it was constantly in the air.

Now Baba said inside, ‘I wanted to fly’.
It is mirrored in the ‘I am that’ and it means we both are the same, the mirror brings it up and we have been both in the TM movement.

It is much worse than we think it is, because we are not aware of the essence of TM and therefore, as there are so many mantras and sutras, we go on with the TM mantra and give up the sutra, because the sutras are used as program and not as mantra.

The essence is the flying program, we have to stick with the flying sutra and meditate with it like with Soham, inhale So, exhale Ham and the Om is in our inner silence in consciousness.
It means inhale – ‘Akasha’ – exhale ‘lightness of a cotton fiber’ – and get back to our own self.

That is the main TM–mantra, it is the essence. The problem with TM is that nobody knows what they are doing, nobody is aware of it and therefore, even if we keep on with the mantra and think we hold on to the instructions Baba gives, it still doesn’t work because we should hold on to the sutra… We have to hold on to the essence. If we meditate with the flying sutra and not on body level, just mental repetition as we do with the mantra and moreover the breath, like Soham, we get aware of the subtle body inside and Patanjali behind and TM dissolves.

It seems that is the main problem why people have that much problems to get away from TM. After they didn't do for a while they get aware that something is wrong and something didn’t work as it should.

We should never change a mantra, it means we have to stick with the sutra in the background of our consciousness, but it is like Soham, charming and the divine presence is in it, there is nothing to worry about and it helps to detach. It was just used wrongly by TM projected on body level.

That is why he said ‘I wanted to fly’ and it is the essence of the TM program.
We are not aware of it, nobody is aware of it and therefore, that is why people get lost.
It is not done in giving up the TM-program, as nobody is aware of what they are really doing, even though they call that yoga and consciousness, what a shame… !

The problems come up later on when we realize that still something is not as it should be and we don’t know what it is. 
As the flying sutra is projected on body level - and exercised as flying on body level, we get a wrong impression of it and think it doesn't work and give it up.
It works fine just on another level. 
Baba said inside in my dream, 'I wanted to fly'. 
It means the motivator is him, divinity and that is the 'essence' and we may never give up on the path the essence, because we cannot give it up, we have to realize it, not give it up.
But with TM we don't know the essence, because the flying sutra is projected on body level and TM-mantra doesn't do it. In the end everything is wrong and we just don't know what it is. 
I would not get aware of it if Baba would not have said, 'I wanted to fly' and if there would not be the mirror, because is comes up only in that mirror if we are two, otherwise, he is not there as 'I', as he is never on a personal level.
We have no notion of the difficulties we face if things are that wrong and projected in the name of pure knowledge.
