Maharishi's Vedic Science --
Consciousness Based Education
Students at Maharishi Centre for Educational Excellence are given
an integrated, unified vision of all aspects of life through their
study of the principles of Maharishi's Vedic Science, study of the
Laws of Nature which structure and uphold growth and progress in
all of nature, including human life. Maharishi's Vedic Science includes
the study of all 40 aspects of Ved and Vedic literature (see graphic
below). Students feel an intimate connection to these universal
principles of Vedic Science and come to understand the simple functioning
of Natural Law in their own lives and in the world around them.
Total Knowledge -- at a Glance
The key value of studying Maharishi's Vedic Science is that the
students learn the connectedness of these universal principles
of intelligence to their own Pure Consciousness, experienced in
their daily practice of Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation
and its advanced programmes.
This balance of knowledge and experience creates an ideal situation
for smooth and rapid growth in all areas of the students' lives.
The daily practice of Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation provides
a perfect foundation for education: the development of the students'
own Consciousness. With this growth of pure wakefulness, creative
genius blossoms, and intelligence and organising power are naturally
developed. For education to be complete, it must include the total
development of consciousness, which is an ocean of knowledge,
power, and bliss.
Incorporating
Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation
into the Curriculum
The practice of Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation programme
is the practical aspect of Maharishi's Vedic Science which studies
the basic principles underlying and supporting the development
of consciousness and found throughout all of creation. This deep
connection between the students' own growth of consciousness and
the universe around them is an integral part of Maharishi Centre
for Educational Excellence.
Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation is a simple, natural, and
effortless technique which is easily and systematically learned
by anyone of any age, education, religion, or background.
The twice daily group practice of Maharishi's Transcendental
Meditation and its advanced programmes in the classrooms creates
an environment that is ideal for the learning process. Students
gain a natural orderliness and coherence; they become more receptive
to knowledge; they exhibit greater alertness; and they radiate
bliss and friendliness to their classmates and their teachers.
Maharishi's Vedic Science Based Curriculum
Has Been Introduced and
Scientifically Validated World-wide
In Iowa, USA, students in 9th to 12th grade levels at Maharishi
School of the Age of Enlightenment consistently score in the top
1% of the entire nation on standardised national tests, even though
when first admitted to the school, the students as a whole score
around the fiftieth percentile (average). No other school in the
United States produces such a great change in its student body
as a whole. In addition, students at Maharishi School repeatedly
win top state prizes in science, history, drama, and other academic
disciplines and state championships in sports. These outcomes
result from the increased mind-body co-ordination, faster reaction
time, and use of total brain reserves that develop through Maharishi's
Transcendental Meditation programme.
In England, the performance of Maharishi School of the Age of
Enlightenment on the national public examinations ranks them academically
in the top 2.5 percent of all schools in the nation. This includes
both selective and non-selective schools, which makes the achievement
even more impressive. This school ranks number one among the thousands
of schools in Lancashire County, England.
