Transcendental Meditation and its advanced techniques are the basis of Consciousness-Based programs that enrich all areas of national life: education, health, architecture, agriculture, business and industry, government, defense, and the arts. The Transcendental Meditation program has been learned by 5 million people worldwide with many thousands having learned the advanced TM-Sidhi program with Yogic Flying.
The Transcendental Meditation technique produces brain waves that can be interpreted as restful alertness, an optimal state of brain functioning for preparing for efficient activity, success in thought and action, a quality of brain waves that produce an optimal state of rest that supports going into dynamic activity.
During a four-month period, students practicing the TM-Technique experienced significant improvements in measures of emotional health as compared to students who engaged in sustained silent reading. Mentally, the students become more alert, receptive, and intellectually keen. Physically they become more balanced, calm, and vital, damaging habits spontaneously decline. Emotionally, they become more tolerant, appreciative, confident, and happy; and the influence of the whole school population practicing these technologies creates an environment that is orderly, harmonious, and positive—an environment most conducive to learning and to developing students’ unique abilities.
“I have seen TM have a transforming, positive impact upon students, teachers and administrators even within three months. You will find that it will begin to work for you, as you, staff members, and students make use of it."
—Dr. Norman Brust, retired Superintendent of Schools and Principal, Afton,
Missouri USA
"The Consciousness-Based program was clearly developing in the students an innatethirst for learning, improving their critical thinking, creativity, and integration of knowledge; and increasing their happiness, kindness, and compassion. The Consciousness-Based education program, in my view, fulfills the most exalted aspirations of educators everywhere, providing the basis for an ideal society."
—Roxie Teague, Master Teacher and Curriculum Developer, Santa Barbara,
California USA
“I would highly recommend the use of Consciousness-Based education to help students stay in school. All of the kids in our [Boys and Girls] Clubs who have learned have benefited, and in many cases lives have been completely turned around. Children who were lost and withdrawn began to feel self-assured and able to interact with others. Children who were aggressive began to soften and notice others’ feelings. Children who were hyperactive and scattered became more focused and able to follow instructions. I would recommend it to any club or school that is trying to help youngsters grow up and take responsibility for their lives.”
—Dave Felicy, Director, Boys and Girls Club, Nebraska, USA
The Brahmasthan is the silent seat of power, the point of ruling authority, the most silent and powerful point in each country
The US Brahmasthan is located in Kansas, in the exact geographic center of the country, a natural seat of power and a unifying point for the whole nation. The US has an urgent need to create a peaceful, harmonious, dynamic society by establishing a permanent coherence-creating group.
A sufficiently large and permanent coherence-creating group provides a means for the society and the world to eliminate societal stress and create lasting peace.
"Generating an influence of peace and positivity throughout the world, enlivening the field of unity, the field of peace, the field of the totality of knowledge, will make it a functioning capital of peace in the world."
~ Dr. John Hagelin
By aligning with the deepest levels of natural law, a group of sufficient size can magnify the effect of their own inner silent coherence. Locating this university in such a center will maximize the effectiveness of the technique.
Maharishi created the master plan for full development of the university, its curriculum, and its structure.
Super-radiance Effect
What the research says:
50 demonstration projects and 23 published scientific studies have validated that TM and TM Sidhi practitioners meditating together in one place alleviate stress and improve quality of life for individuals and for society
Each project resulted in:
-
The group successfully improved the quality of life and removed conflict and tension on a large scale in different places and circumstances.
-
The coherence generating group was temporary because the group was dismantled, usually for lack of funds.
Why does such a group influence society?
-
The field of Transcendental Consciousness is a field of perfect coherence and perfect orderliness, infinite peace, and creative potential. It is available to every human brain.
-
The Maharishi Effect has been tested experimentally, and more than 23 papers have been published in peer-reviewed publications documenting its efficacy.
One example of a coherence-creating group:
In 1998, a coherence-creating group of 125 experts came together for 8 days in Northern Ireland.
-
Successful talks between all parties were led by US envoy George Mitchell (1998).
-
Successful and peaceful elections subsequently occurred.
-
Local media described the election as the quietest in living history.
“There does not exist, nor will there ever be, a more powerful or proven technology to transform the trends of life and society.”
~ Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
