SUMMARY:How TM Differs from Other Forms of Meditation
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Andy Guest. \nJoin us for an insightful recorded session with Dr Guy-Paul Gagné\, who will shed light on the distinctions between the three main categories of meditation\, and how the various techniques differ in terms of effort\, effects\, and benefits. \nDuring the session\, you will learn about: \n\nAutomatic Self-Transcending\, found in Transcendental Meditation\, is characterized by its effortless and transformative nature.\nFocused Attention\, which encompasses techniques like Zen and Vipassana\, requires concentration and strong effort.\nOpen Monitoring\, which involves practices such as Mindfulness and Kriya Yoga\, calls for dispassionate observation with moderate effort.\n\nDr Gagné\, a medical doctor with extensive experience in lecturing about TM\, will delve into the scientific rationale behind these classifications and examine the unique effects of TM in comparison to other meditation practices on the brain and body. \nHis expertise allows him to present complex research findings in a manner accessible to all audiences. \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.

SUMMARY:The Mechanics of Creation
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Roy Anderson and host Nuard Israelyan. \nHow does the unmanifest field of pure intelligence manifest and give rise to creation? And how does understanding the mechanics of creation influence our TM practice? \nIn this video\, Maharishi describes that pure intelligence becoming aware of its own existence becomes intelligent\, giving rise to manifestation. The mechanics of creation are explained in such a way as to make this abstract process understandable in simple terms.  \nMaking the connection to our daily TM practice\, Maharishi describes how the same force of evolution responsible for manifestation brings about the rise to enlightenment. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:The Time-Tested Formula to Develop Cosmic Consciousness — Rest and Activity
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Dianne Field. \nDuring this session\, you’ll learn the importance of your daily activity after each meditation. Rest and activity are steps of progress towards higher states of consciousness. \nIn this video from August 1972\, at a course in California\, Maharishi explains the important role activity plays to develop Cosmic Consciousness. The alternation of the deep rest of TM followed by our daily activity stabilizes pure consciousness. Over time\, pure consciousness\, or unbounded awareness\, is not lost when we are engaged in activity — the experience of inner wakefulness becomes permanent\, and is not overshadowed even while we are engaged in dynamic activity. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:Experience Circle — Exploring Ordinary Experiences of an Extraordinary Nature
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teachers Mark McCooey & Anne-Mareike Chu. \nWe are all part of a single Universal Nervous System! \nThis October’s Experience Circle session is very special because we will be joined by one of our listener’s favorite guests\, Harri Aalto\, a well known writer of beautiful inner experiences within the many multi layered realities of enlightenment. \nOur monthly Experience Circle provides a platform for TM practitioners to share their journeys toward growth\, inner peace\, and higher states of consciousness. By learning from each other’s experiences\, we can accelerate our progress and continue to evolve. \nWe begin our session by interviewing TM practitioners who have experiences in the direction of Higher States of Consciousness so that their words might trigger a resonance with our own experiences\, which\, at times\, can seem too abstract to understand fully. \nOur special guest this Sunday\, October 20th\, will be Harri Aalto\, a long-time Governor and practitioner of the TM-Sidhis program. Harri is a wonderful blend of artist and businessman\, running Aalto Marble Inlay where he designs and installs marble inlay of intricate beauty. \nBlessed with experiences of enlightenment since early childhood\, Harri has written in great detail of his journey and shares his experiences from a very down to earth point of view. He regularly shares his experiences in the Dome at MIU. In a delightful description of progression towards Higher States\, Harri’s examples may resonate with similar experiences of our listeners. \nAfter our chat with Harri\, we will enjoy conversations with our Zoom participants about their experiences in a “circle format\,” going from one person to another for a brief insight into their current experiences. \nThrough this shared experience\, we can gain inspiration\, insight\, and motivation to continue on our journey toward higher states of consciousness. \nWhat one of our zoom participants has said about the Experience Circle: \n“What I like about the Experience Circle sessions is the simple\, direct descriptions of Higher States from everyday people that I respect; and not theoretical descriptions that sometimes seem so far out of reach.” \nClick on the button below to join the session on Sunday\, October 20th\, at 1pm Eastern/ 10 am Pacific for the next installment of our monthly series. \nBegins with a 20-minute group \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:Progress vs Pressure
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Ashia Freedeen . \nIn this session\, Bob Roth and Mario Orsatti discuss how maintaining calmness in the face of pressure allows for maximum progress in life. They discuss the concepts of calm\, pressure\, and progress as it relates to the significant neurophysiological and psychological improvements gained through the regular practice of TM.  \nThey will comment on a video where Maharishi gives his insight that for maximum progress in our life\, dynamic activity supported by silence is required — not passive calmness. The silence regularly experienced through TM creates a change in neurophysiological functioning over time that transforms pressure into progress. \nA live discussion and Q&A with certified TM teachers will follow the pre-recorded video presentation. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:How to Thrive During Winter with Maharishi Ayurveda
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Maria Rosa Papetti \nWinter is a challenging season for many Canadians — with its cold weather\, short days\, and longer nights. Ayurveda describes how winter may upset physiological balance by significantly increasing the Vata dosha in the body and mind. Increased Vata can create dry skin\, irregular digestion\, cold feet and hands\, occasional insomnia\, and worry. These symptoms are signs that our Vata dosha needs a little nurturing. \nJoin Maharishi Ayurveda experts Dr. Mark Toomey and Helen Toomey in this pre-recorded session for practical\, easy to implement recommendations for diet and lifestyle changes to help you stay warm\, grounded\, and calm during wintertime. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:Is Consciousness the Unified Field?
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Roy Anderson and host Nuard Israelyan. \nWhat is the relationship of cutting edge science and the ancient science of consciousness? Quantum physics describes the Unified Field as a field beyond space\, time\, and matter. From the Vedic perspective\, the human nervous system is able to directly experience this field of pure consciousness. \nDr John Hagelin\, a Harvard trained quantum physicist\, explores the relationship between quantum physics and Vedic Science. Are they incompatible paradigms or do they confirm the existence of the other? In this pre-recorded presentation at the “Science and Nonduality Conference\,” Dr Hagelin posits three arguments for the thesis that the Unified Field described by physics is actually a field of consciousness. \nIn this session\, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how modern science and the ancient Vedic wisdom describe the same underlying reality from objective and subjective perspectives. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:Can Group Meditations Create a More Peaceful World?
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Lynne Hea. \nExtensive scientific research indicates that when sufficient numbers of people practice the TM program\, a significant\, positive effect gets created and the effect is measurable in society. The effect is based on the hypothesis that we are all connected via a field of collective consciousness. Therefore\, the collective consciousness\, which affects the whole of society\, can be influenced by the individual. \nResearch shows that when one percent of a given population area practices TM on their own\, the trends of life in that area\, such as the crime rate\, measurably improve. Named The Maharishi Effect\, this was first documented in a scientific experiment in 1974. Later research showed that this same kind of positive effect on society could be created by an even smaller number of people—the square root of one percent—when they practice the TM and TM-Sidhi program together in a group. \nThe Maharishi Effect was first documented on a global scale in 1984\, with the assembly of a group of over 7000 people for three weeks at Maharishi International University in Fairfield\, Iowa. Although the scientific community struggles to understand the mechanism for the Maharishi Effect\, they acknowledge the validity of the scientific methodology used to demonstrate it\, and so many scientific studies on this phenomenon have been published in peer-reviewed scientific journals. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:Collective Consciousness\, Explained
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Andy Guest. \nWhat is collective consciousness? The individual influences society and society influences the individual. These mechanics of collective consciousness are explained by Maharishi with an analogy: the mind and body of society are a combination of the qualities of consciousness of every individual. When mind and body are not coordinated\, problems arise. \nTranscending\, and operating at a finer level of consciousness\, maximizes evolutionary behaviour which is in accord with natural law. This increases harmony in society and prosperity for all. \nTranscendental Meditation is the way for individual consciousness to be naturally supported by the force of evolution. The individual spontaneously contributes to the collective consciousness of society which becomes more life-supporting\, progressive\, and fulfilling. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.

SUMMARY:Aging Gracefully with Maharishi Ayurveda
DESCRIPTION:With TM Teacher Dianne Field. \nWe all aspire to a healthy\, happy\, and dynamic life in our senior years. Maharishi Ayurveda has recommendations for each phase of life\, based on the dominant doshas in our physiology. \nAs infants and children\, Kapha dosha dominates. Next as young adults and as we establish our careers and have our own families\, Pitta dosha dominates. The third stage of life is when Vata dosha begins to dominate — generally around 50-60 years of age. \nDuring this period\, Maharishi Ayurveda emphasizes changes in lifestyle to provide relief from the changes associated with aging that can wear us down. \nIn this video with Vaidya Dinesh Gyawali\, you’ll learn about the three stages of life: childhood\, adolescence to middle age\, and old age — and principles to promote greater health and happiness during our third act\, to make them truly our golden years. \nBegins with a 20-minute group TM. \nJoin Session \nPassword required to join this session.
