MMeessssaaggee FFrroomm tthhee SScchhooooll HHeeaa5 dd This year Maharishi School celebrates the 30th anniversary of our Middle and Upper Schools. In 1981 an intrepid group of educators and 34 founding students filled the gap between the ele- mentary school and university to complete the world’s first Kinder- garten through Ph.D. Consciousness-Based system of education. Today we can look back on A Record of Excellence: The Remarkable Success of Maharishi School of the Age of Enlightenment, as Executive Director Dr. Ashley Deans titled his book. Year after year, our students have demonstrated the effectiveness of education for enlightenment, a holistic approach for inner development along with outer success, what we call 200% of life. This past year was no exception. We continued our tradition of excel- lence in academic and extracurricular competitions and extended our Dr. Richard Beall Consciousness-Based connections around the world, from Italy (the Head of Maharishi School destination for the senior trip) to China (with new school partnerships and prospective students). “The world is our family,” and expanding our boarding school program will enable us to open our arms even wider in the years to come. So what started as a dream thirty years ago continues to unfold with new possibilities. It is our responsibility, privilege, and joy to continue this legacy and to honor our Founder, His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. SScchhooooll CCoouunncciill The School Council is respon- sible for the daily administration of the School. It is comprised of the School Head, Directors of Lower, Girls, and Boys Schools, and other administrative leaders. They work in collaboration to provide holistic guidance of our aca- demic program, finances, personnel, physical plant, and expansion programs.

    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.

  • Consciousness-Based Education: Unfolding the Inner Genius of Every Student By: Ashley Deans, Ph.D
    Consciousness-Based Education: Unfolding the Inner Genius of Every Student By: Ashley Deans, Ph.D Leaders in education are always searching for ways to improve academic outcomes and develop citizens who enjoy successful, happy, productive lives while contributing to the well being of society as a whole. This high ideal is now realizable by supplying one missing ingredient to education-technologies to develop higher states of consciousness. Traditionally, education has focused primarily on what a student studies-mathematics, physics, art, literature etc. However, education has lacked a systematic means to unfold the full value of the consciousness of the student-qualities such as alertness, creativity, intelligence, receptivity, and breadth of comprehension. As a result, increasing academic demands on the student are not accompanied by an increase in the student’s capacity to learn. This failure to expand the student’s “container of knowledge”- this failure to unlock the hidden reserves of the brain-not only restricts the full expression of the inner genius of the student but also leads to the accumulation of fatigue and stress, resulting in the epidemic of stress-related health and behavior problems prevalent in society today. Over 600 scientific studies performed at more than 250 universities and research institutes in 33 countries, and published in over 100 peer reviewed journals have confirmed that Consciousness- based education, which includes the Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi program, develops higher states of consciousness, as evidenced by increased brain integration, growth of creativity and intelligence, improved academic outcomes, decreased stress and anxiety, lower levels of substance abuse, a decline in school bullying, and reduced crime and violence in society.

  • HIS HOLINESS MAHARISHI MAHESH YOGI in the World Today MAHARISHI in the WORLD TODAY by Raja John Konhaus
    HIS HOLINESS MAHARISHI MAHESH YOGI In the World Today MAHARISHI IN THE WORLD TODAY By Raja John Konhaus is Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi is a Hrenowned and revered world teacher from the Vedic tradition of India, the tradition of supreme knowledge. His supreme gift to the world has been to make the diffi cult simple—to take the highest techniques for achieving enlightenment, or full human potential, and offer them as simple, natural, effortless procedures available to every citizen of our world. Maharishi is therefore regarded today as the foremost scientist in the fi eld of human development, having brought out in the last 50 years the full potential of human consciousness in every area of life, including education, health care, agriculture, architecture, economics, and government. Maharishi’s story begins with his homage to the feet of his teacher Guru Dev, Brahmananda Saraswati, Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, Himalayas, from whom he received the perfect and complete Vedic knowledge, and under whose guidance he achieved the highest state of consciousness. After 12 years with his Master, Maharishi retired to the silence of Uttar Kashi in the Himalayas. The recluse life, however, was not meant to be his destiny. Maharishi had found something so useful and precious for all mankind that the need of the time moved him to share it with everyone. He had learned from his Master the natural tendency of the mind to experience its own inner nature—self-referral consciousness—a fi eld of infi nite creativity and bliss, and the basis of all success and happiness in life.

  • CONSCIOUSNESS-BASED EDUCATION Introduced by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
    CONSCIOUSNESS-BASED EDUCATION Introduced by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi By Dr. Bevan Morris Consciousness-Based education, introduced in 1971 by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, is unique in its ability to effectively develop the total brain potential of every student. onsciousness-Based education awakens and integrates the total brain through the Cexperience of the unifi ed, silent, self-referral level of the student’s consciousness, Transcendental Consciousness, during the practice of Transcendental Meditation. Transcendental Meditation, practiced at the beginning and end of each academic day, is a simple, effortless, natural mental technique, enjoyed by millions of students around the world from every nationality, culture, and religion. It automatically develops coherent brain functioning, bringing holistic benefi ts to all aspects of the student’s life. This fi eld of pure transcendental consciousness, equated today by leading theoretical physicists to the Unifi ed Field of Natural Law discovered by modern science, opens to every student the home of all the Laws of Nature in their conscious awareness, giving them command of Natural Law for all success and fulfi llment in life. Figure 1: The equivalence of consciousness and the Unifi ed Field of Natural Law Failure of the Present Segmented Approach of Education n the present fragmented approach to education, students study only specifi c areas Iof knowledge like the sciences, business, and the arts. This fragmented study enlivens only specifi c areas of the brain, and never the total brain—the student experiences localized functioning but not holistic functioning. Lack of holistic brain functioning is the root of many problems and mistakes that students make in their lives, which creates so many diffi culties for the government and the nation.
