You can always try TM-EX. However, as far as *I* know, no-one has ever
gotten a refund from learning TM.
In fact, any competent expert witness brought in by the TM organization
will refute the "TM mantras are the names of gods" claim in open court.
In other words, not only will you not win, but you will probably be
instructed to pay the court fees for wasting the court's time with
something that you could have checked on by talking to any competent
religious/anthropology expert.
