A Consciousness-based approach to education

Maharishi Vedic University's Consciousness-Based Education approach helps become more creative, alert and awake. It develops the knower - the student's we own consciousness and creativity as well as providing knowledge of the known - the field being studied, and the process of knowing, which connects the knower to the Most education focuses only on the known, and leaves out the other two-thirds of knowledge. Through development of consciousness at the University, students become alert and awake - they naturally gain a more complete understanding of any field they study.

Students develop their consciousness and creative intelligence through the following programs:

• The Transcendental Meditation© program which students learn as part of their first _ at the University. This simple. natural, effortless technique has been learned by –over five million people of all ages, nationalities and religions. It allows the student to experience quieter level of the thinking process and the source of thought transcendental consciousness- the full creative potential of the mind. The field of transcendental consciousness has been identified by leading quantum physicists as the Unified Field of Natural Law, the home of all the laws of nature that govern the orderly evolution of the universe.

As the mind settles down during the practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique, the body also settles down and gains a unique state of deep rest and relaxation, releasing accumulated stress and revitalizing the entire nervous system. The container of knowledge - the mind - is expanded, increasing learning capacity, and broadening comprehension. Through this development of body and mind together, students can achieve increasing success and satisfaction in all aspects of life.

• The Transcendental Meditation -Sidhi® program, including Yogic Flying, which student learn at the beginning of their second year of study. This advanced practice unfolds the student's ability to think and act from transcendental consciousness. Thought and action become more powerful and effective- more fully supported by Natural Law- so that the student becomes increasingly competent to accomplish any objective without strain. Extensive research has shown that when practiced in a group, Yogic Flying creates a measurable influence of harmony and progress throughout society.

Our students practice the Transcendental Meditation technique twice daily in their first year of study as part of an academic course called the Transcendental Meditation program. From second year to fourth year students' practice the TM-Sidhi program twice as part of an academic course call the TM-Sidhi program. Students receive an academic grade each year for participation in the TM and TM-Sidhi program courses.
