Transcendental Meditation is a secretive mantra meditation movement founded by an indian yogi/guru. Most research on meditation benefits is on TM. To learn it, one has to pay for and participate in a course led by a certified TM teacher.
Does anybody here have had experience with TM, participated in a course and received a mantra chosen by their teacher?
Do you really need a teacher to learn it? Is the course worth it or just profiteering? Anything else one should know before going to a course themselves?

There are different types of meditation. Both mantra and breath meditation are types of focused meditation. I just wanted to know from people who learned TM, which is a secret technique, if it is actually worth it or if it is just a money making scheme, to ask people to pay to learn a certain meditation technique.
