His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Founder, Maharishi School MAHARISHI SCHOOL BOARD OF TRUSTEES Dr. Bevan Morris Chairman of the Board Camille Jorgensen Bill Goldstein Sam Lieb Shelley Gratzon Janet Nichols Richard Hobbs Craig Pearson Peter Huggins Chet Swanson Chris Jones Susan Tracy 2 A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR It has been an extraordinary joy to carry the message of Maharishi School and Consciousness-BasedSM education around the world during the last year and a half. What we have encountered everywhere is the idea that education is primarily a path to the goal of getting a job – a very partial understanding compared with Maharishi’s vision of complete education, which is capable of enriching each student with the fruit of all knowledge, the ability to live with the full support of nature, free from mistakes and suffering. Often we met with students whose experience of education has been dominated by an ideal of long hours spent in study, memorizing facts and formulas. They have grown up with the idea that the harder they work and the more drudgery they can withstand, the greater their success will be. It’s quite amazing for them to hear about the enormous successes our students enjoy year after year in absolutely Dr. Ashley Deans everything they undertake, without any drudgery at all. And when they hear that Director, they too can work less hard and achieve even more, they can’t stop smiling. Maharishi School The foundation of our success is Maharishi’s simple insight into the three-fold structure of education: the knower, the known, and the process of knowing. Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation® program is a unique and well-researched technique for developing the knower. EEG studies show that TM practice enlivens total brain functioning, making students more alert and receptive. It enhances the learning process by actually refining sensory perceptions and strengthening the powers of analysis and synthesis. The TM technique allows students to turn their attention inward to experience consciousness itself as the unified field, the source of all subjective and objective reality, the home of all knowledge, the home of all the laws of nature. It’s no wonder that no subject is foreign to our students. The old paradigm of education, which emphasizes only the known, only the subject matter to be learned, is giving way to Maharishi’s new and more complete paradigm. In the USA alone, with the support of the David Lynch Foundation, 20 schools have already adopted the TM program and transformed their learning environments. This transformation is happening on every continent; 175,000 students are currently enrolled in Consciousness-Based educational institutions worldwide. We have the great good fortune to be the original pioneers in a global paradigm shift which is clearly gaining irreversible momentum.
