Experience Circle — Exploring Ordinary Experiences of an Extraordinary Nature
2025-03-30 12:00 - 13:30 (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.
This session will be a special knowledge session with special guest Prashanth Ramasamy, CEO and manager of 1000 pandits and administrators who, together, conduct the personal yagya program for all meditators worldwide. Because of the time zone differences with India, we will be starting one hour earlier at 9 am Pacific and 12 pm Eastern. Prashanth will discuss the origins of the Saraswati order of Swamis, which is the lineage that our Guru Dev was part of.
Because there are so many names for the feminine creative energies that create and maintain all of the universe, Prashanth will explain some of these feminine “personalities” along with their source energy, Mother Devi, creator of Maya.
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.”
Click on the button below to join the session on Sunday, March 30th, at 12pm Eastern/ 9 am Pacific for the next instalment of our monthly series. Please note the time change to one hour earlier for this week’s session only.
Begins with a 20-minute group
