Soma: The Finest Product of Design
2025-09-14 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With TM Teacher John Cowhig.

Last Sunday, we discussed body awareness: how to put attention on the abnormal functioning in the body associated with negative moods, which effectively dissolves them.
This Sunday we will play a tape where Maharishi discusses what could be seen as an advanced form of body awareness: Soma—Showers of Soma.
Soma is the finest product of perfect digestion, which the Vedas describe as a golden, oily substance, so refined it penetrates and nourishes. It brings unity between the mind and body.
Join us to learn how to shower the body and mind with Soma: “Like milk. Imagine you are showering this very beautiful Soma substance on the area of the problem. Put that good attention on that area:shower it with goodness.”
Begins with a 20-minute group TM.

Experience Circle — Exploring Ordinary Experiences of an Extraordinary Nature
2025-09-21 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With TM Teachers Mark McCooey & Anne-Mareike Chu.
Our 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.
We 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.
After our chat with our guest, 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.
Through this shared experience, we can gain inspiration, insight, and motivation to continue on our journey toward higher states of consciousness.
What one of our zoom participants has said about the Experience Circle:
“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.”

Dear friends of the Experience Circle,

We are excited to invite you to a new experiment in deepening our collective exploration of Higher States of Consciousness.

For three weeks in October, we will form a small group of 12 participants who will meet once a week via Zoom for 60–90 minutes. This format is designed to encourage open dialogue and meaningful connection.

Format
Each session will feature 4 participants sharing their experiences, guided by questions from course leaders Mark and Anne-Mareike. The format will be conversational and designed to support a natural, free-flowing exchange.

Each of the 4 participants will have approximately 15 minutes to share.
The final 30 minutes of each session will be devoted to group discussion and reflection on the points raised.

Over the 3-week cycle, everyone in the group will have a turn to share.
This small-group format is meant to foster:

A sense of peer connection—everyone in the session is sharing equally
A safe, supportive space to explore profound and personal experiences

Our past experience suggests that these small groups naturally develop a warm, collegial atmosphere where participants feel increasingly at ease with one another.
In the fourth week, all small groups will rejoin the larger Experience Circle for the monthly community gathering.

Interested in Joining?
If you’d like to participate, please send an email to experiencecircle@tm.org with:

Your interest in joining a small group
How many Experience Circle sessions you’ve previously attended
Your preferred month (October, November, or January)

If interest exceeds available spots for a given month, we may ask you to participate in a later group — thank you in advance for your understanding.

We hope this new format will bring even greater openness, insight, and support to the sharing of our precious experiences.
