Abstract
This paper presents the case of a 39-year-old woman who, several weeks following initiation into transcendental meditation (TM), experienced altered reality testing and behavior. We discuss the course of this episode, present evidence for a causal relationship between her practice of TM and altered behavior, and discuss the appropriate treatment of such phenomena.
