Seriously? That’s as bad as when liberals say that conservatives are “against immigration” and conveniently leave out the word “illegal”.

The Bible is not against all forms of meditation, but it very much is against transcendental meditation, an invention of Hindu guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (the Beatles’ guru) that consists of what Jesus condemned as “vain repetitions, as the heathen do” in Matthew 6:7.

.
Read of Christ casting out demons.

TM is demon calling. Your mantra is the name of the demon that you are giving control of your life over to.

Any time one is encouraged to empty ones mind and let go, it’s leaves one wide open for whatever spirit wishes to come in. As Christians we are to be alert and sober

Not exactly Satanic, but the current meditation fad isn’t scriptural. I believe that any time “meditate” or “meditation” is referred to in the Bible, it refers to meditating specifically about God/Christ or specific spiritual things. Current medication is generally self-centered — all about “me” (or donuts in the case of Ms. Crowley).
