MH-8 Student Publication THE BELLS Feb. 13, 1976

Perhaps a student from Mary Hardin-Baylor doesn't sutter from jet lag, but a big part of his life does center around time. Chronologically, the student wakes up, by an alarm, instinct, or other means. He then goes to class or turns in a designated paper; from there to another class and so on. How reliable is the source·.by which a student gages his time? Sources range from television and radio to telephoning 'dial the time'. Even these vary and may be erroneous.

Everybody on "The Bells" staff is leaving and I'm trying to learn things in two weeks which took the present staff months and years to learn. I think that when I decided to be editor of the paper several weeks ago and submitted a letter to that effect I made a good decision.

AboutTM ''The Bells'' Special AUTard You've heard it called Transcendental Mediation, TM, or simply meditation. Many people talk about To· Bm Elliott it, but, unfortunately, few are very well informed on the subject The purpose of this article is, not to sway the Dring Me Your Poor, Hungry reader, but to set the facts straight on this subject A popular (and probably major) misconception and Huddled Mosses Category about TM is that it is a tl!ligion and causes the medi­ tator-to violate the laws of God by taking part in a religion other than Christianity. Presbyterian pastor JohnJt Dilley rebuts this statement by saying that, "We have found no compromise in our commitment to Jesus Christ and his church. [as a result of prac­ ticing TM] Indeed, we have found that our entire lifestyle has become more Christian as we both give and receive-love With less tension in our lives." To meditate, aperson simply sits in a comfortable position with the eyes closed for 20 minutes twice a day. During this time he simply repeats a mantra (meaningless sound) over and over in his mind. The mantra is like the ~ey to a car. It helps the car go, but the driver is in control. - · The practice of TM in no way involves-the accep­ tance of the Hindu religion or philosopy, as many be­ lieve. (I have never met any teacher of TM that was a practicing Hin~u. nor have I any knowledge of any meditators giving up Christianity as a result of em­ ploying the technique ofT~.) · Actually, the converse is true. Most of the medi­ tators that I know have gone back to christianity be­ cause of TM. · To explain the benefits of TM, the physiological aspects must be explained. When one meditates, oxygen consumption and heart rate decrease substantially lower than during a good nights sleep. Electroencephalograph (EEG) tests have shown that the mind is more awake or alert during TM than in daily activitY. 'It is this coupling of a deep level of rest with increased mental activity (stretching the muscles of your brain). that gives a· unique state to TM. It is this condition that accounts for normaliza­ tion of high blood pressure and hypertension that many meditators claim to have had before begin· . ning TM. Small scale studies have shown that indicators such as 1.0., grade point average, reaction time, ~ self assessed efficiency and self assesed resistance to disease have Improved with the practice of TM.
