SUMMARY:Maharishi on Unlocking Inner Fulfillment
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Dianne Field. \nIn this inspiring video\, Maharishi shares a profound insight: at the core of every individual is a state of unbounded bliss. This bliss\, known as Ānanda in Sanskrit\, is far more than just an emotion — it’s a quality of our pure consciousness. \nThrough the practice of TM\, we experience this profound state of unbounded bliss. As we experience this inner bliss and then transition into our daily activities\, it becomes a constant\, ever-increasing presence in our lives. \nOver time\, this profound sense of fulfillment reshapes our everyday experiences with a lasting sense of completeness and bliss. And we begin to live a life of inner and outer fullness — 200 percent of life. \nThis transformation reveals a powerful truth: true happiness\, harmony\, and fulfillment come from within. \nJoin on Zoom: \nFor PC\, Mac\, iPad\, iPhone or Android devices\, use the following link to join: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86745062695 \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:The Difference Between Cosmic Consciousness and God Consciousness
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Maria Rosa Papetti. \nOur perception of the world around us grows and evolves as we grow in our experiences of enlightenment. \nIn this session\, featuring a video lecture by Maharishi\, we will explore this growth of perception that comes with the development of higher states of consciousness. \nWith our regular practice of TM\, our experience of the inner Self becomes more and more present during daily life. This leads to a greater sense of fulfillment during our daily activity\, such as pursuing our passions\, working\, and spending time with loved ones. \nMoving from Cosmic to God Consciousness\, we perceive and appreciate the world more and more\, while maintaining the experience of the Self. \nUltimately\, this growth and refinement in perception culminates in the experience of Unity Consciousness\, where everything is as unified within the Self.  \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:Emotions & Intellect
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Ashia Freedeen and moderator Nuard Israelyan. \nIn this video recorded in 1971 on a TM Teacher Training course in Mallorca\, Spain with 2\,000 participants\, Maharishi speaks about the intimate relationship of emotions and intellect.  \nMaharishi explains that: \n“Intellectual thought means decisive thought\, and in decisions emotions are deeply involved. When you decide\, it’s the force of decision that takes in emotion very deeply. Decision is never free from the grip of emotion; decision is guided by emotion. Apparently\, it may appear that they are guided by logic\, but logic is always in favour of emotions.” \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:The Neuroscience of Enlightenment: How the Experience of Transcending Cultures the Brain to Maintain Deep Inner Calm
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Andy Guest. \nIn enlightenment\, how can the nervous system maintain the experience of unbounded\, non-changing inner Being even as the body is involved in focused activity or immersed in the inertia of deep sleep? \nIn this presentation\, Fred Travis\, Ph.D.\, looks at brain networks during the Transcendental Meditation technique\, as well as during sleeping and waking. He examines how these networks can be integrated through TM practice\, providing scientific support for Maharishi’s statement in his commentary on the Bhagavad Gita: “The gradual and systematic culture of the physical nervous system creates a physiological situation in which the two states of consciousness exist together simultaneously.” \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.
