Conversations in the Hive Part 5

This video is a presentation by David Laird on the publicly available finances of the TM movement in various countries around the world. David presents the facts he has been able to find, and leaves you to make up your own mind as to the conclusions to be drawn.

David learned to meditate in 1971, worked on staff in Seelisberg for 4 months, then did TTC in 1974. He was briefly one of 4 regional coordinators for the UK organisation.

In 1978 he joined The Economist, and eventually became Commercial Director of The Economist Group, a £300m global media company. During a 30-year career he held various positions in sales, marketing and senior management in the UK, Europe and the USA. Under his leadership CFO Publishing, a Boston-based media company, saw revenues increase from $6m to $43m in 10 years.

More recently he served on the Peace Palace Advisory Board and has designed and written a number of publications for new Meditators, including the Perspectives newsletter which was recently reprinted.
