Maharishi began by teaching a simple meditation that allowed anyone to tap into this field of Bliss Consciousness. This procedure became known as Transcendental Meditation. It was a completely revolutionary meditation due to its simplicity, effortlessness, profundity, and remarkable beneficial effects. The long-lost spiritual practice for the man of the world!

Requiring no change in belief or lifestyle, people of all ages, and religious, social and educational backgrounds began Transcendental Meditation and experienced benefits in all areas of their lives.

Since that time, step-by-step, Maharishi has re-enlivened the long-lost Vedic Science for the benefit of the people of the world. Every area of knowledge has been brought to its highest level due to the grace of Maharishi. Heaven on Earth, in one generation.

"I have brought from the Himalayas the fulfillment of every man's need in this fast tempo of modern living." -Maharishi 1959

The purpose of Maharishi's programs is to unfold more and more of the unlimited creative potential inherent in human life.

All the programs and techniques described in this Website have their source in the ancient Vedic Science, which Maharishi has brought to light from the Vedic wisdom for the practical benefit of every individual and society.

By increasing the strength, organizing power, and bliss of the individual, and by increasing coherence in the collective consciousness of society, these programs can raise life out of problems and suffering and bring life everywhere into harmony with Natural Law. This, in Maharishi's terms, is creating Heaven on Earth

Maharishi's Vedic Science and Technology, which unfolds the full potential of Natural Law in human consciousness as the basis of improving all areas of life, is regarded as the most effective program of human resource development.

His technique of Transcendental Meditation is the most widely practiced and extensively researched program of self-development in the world. 1

Maharishi has held hundreds of World Peace Assemblies on all continents during the past forty years with many thousands of people coming together to create coherence in world consciousness through the group practice of the Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi Program. As a result, world peace is rising to become a permanent reality. 2

Over the past forty years Maharishi has established a worldwide organization with more than 1,200 Centers in 108 countries.

Hundreds of books have been published about Maharishi's teachings, which have been translated into many languages and have been distributed globally.

Maharishi is one of the most videotaped personalities in history. There are over 15,000 hours of video and audio tape recordings of lectures in Maharishi's international film and tape library.

Over the past forty years Maharishi has completely restored the ancient Vedic Wisdom for the total significance of its theory and practice, and has organized it in the form of a complete science.

Maharishi in the world today is a cosmic figure caring for the well-being of all mankind and establishing a system to perpetuate life according to Natural Law. 3

Through his brilliance in the field of knowledge and administration every person now has the opportunity to actualize the supreme purpose of life. 4

Maharishi attributes his achievements to his teacher Shri Guru Deva, His Divinity Swami Brahmananda Saraswati Maharaj, Jagadguru, Bhagavan Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, Badrikashram, Himalayas -- the most illustrious in the eternal tradition of Vedic Masters. Under Guru Dev's divine grace the political freedom of India dawned. Under his quiet inspiration, Maharishi came out of the Himalayas to spiritually regenerate the whole world

One wonders whether there could be a greater ruling intelligence than the one that is available in the world today in the form of Maharishi, who is making life on earth heavenly, and who is making Heaven on Earth a reality.

Now is the time for the world to witness the full glory of life according to Natural Law; to experience the full dignity of life in peace, prosperity, and happiness, with enlightenment and fulfillment in daily life.

Maharishi in the world today, a quiet guardian of all nations.

Maharishi's practical program to quietly establish life according to Natural Law without requiring change in any area of the existing administration can free governments from problems and develop in them the ability to prevent problems.

His global initiative to irrevocably change the course of time in favor of peace and happiness for all mankind places Maharishi on a most supremely exalted level of rulership, which far surpasses the wisdom or administrative skill of any sovereign ruler in the world that history has ever recorded.
