Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation is a simple, natural, effortless
procedure whereby the mind easily and naturally arrives at the source of
thought, the settled state of mind—Transcendental Consciousness—pure
consciousness, self-referral consciousness, which is the source of all
creative processes.
- This process can be likened to a river which naturally and
effortlessly flows on to the ocean and gains the status of the ocean.

Transcendental Meditation is practised twice a day for 15 to 20 minutes
in the morning and evening while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed,
and:
- is practised by people of all levels of intelligence, of all ages,
cultures, religions, and educational backgrounds,
- provides deep rest to the nervous system,
- expands the conscious capacity of the mind,
- spontaneously unfolds the full potential of the individual,
and
- enriches all aspects of daily life.

During Transcendental Meditation the individual’s awareness settles
down and experiences a unique state of restful alertness.
-
As the body becomes deeply relaxed, the mind transcends all mental
activity to experience the simplest form of awareness—Transcendental
Consciousness—where consciousness is open to itself.
- This is the self-referral state of consciousness.

The experience of Transcendental Consciousness develops the
individual’s latent creative potential, while dissolving accumulated
stress and fatigue during the practice.
-
This experience enlivens within one’s awareness creativity,
dynamism, orderliness, and organizing power, which results in increasing
effectiveness and success in daily life.
