How similar is Maharishis TM meditation to Chopras Primordial Sound meditation and the NSR technique?
There are different types of meditation. Mantra-meditation is a specific type of meditation. These three techniques are somewhat different from one another, but all three are mantra-meditation techniques with no breath control (they differ much from other types of meditation). In the NSR technique, a single “syllable” for everybody is given, instead of a personal “mantra”. Our own syllable has never been used in TM, but it comes from yoga and tantra tradition as well as TM mantras. By the way, no trademark problems can exist, due to several reasons. Our product is sold by our non-profit organization as a Manual + Audio under the term “Natural Stress Relief technique”, while “Transcendental Meditation” is a Service Mark registered in the USA in the class 41 (education courses). Other remarkable differences between NSR and TM are the duration of the sessions and the way of learning. Our syllable has been accurately chosen.
