Reports from Executives
'Maharishi Corporate Development Programme has brought us -- more
than 25,000 employees who have been instructed into Transcendental
Meditation -- much closer together. We feel enriched and empowered
and better able to serve.'
-- D. S. Seth
Chairman Tata Tea Ltd, Chairman Emeritus, Tata Chemicals Ltd,
India
'During Transcendental Meditation we experience our inner nature -- which is
cool, calm, and refreshing. This daily experience of deep inner silence
results in more energy and alertness during the day, making our activity
more successful and enjoyable. And we feel also it's very Indian -- it is
something that comes naturally to the people of India. This will give us an
edge in the global environment, where we have to compete with people from
all over the world.'
-- Dr. B. K. Modi
Chairman and President, ModiCorp
'Transcendental Meditation… gives much needed peace of mind, helps
professionally by increasing concentration levels and finally, gives
the bottom line satisfaction at the end of a long workday. The practical
day-to-day benefits include more alertness, increased levels of
tolerance, patience, and understanding.'
-- Anant Dehadrai
India Director, Sumitomo Heavy Industries
'In the very first week I personally realised the effect of Transcendental
Meditation on my working -- and in the next four months, on my health. Now I
work with better efficiency due to better clarity of mind and thoughts. I
credit Transcendental Meditation for controlling my blood pressure and for
keeping me fresh and active throughout the day, thus improving my quality
of life. I recommend Transcendental Meditation to those who want to
improve their quality of life at the cost of 20 minutes twice a day.'
-- K. K. Agrawal
Senior Vice President (Operations), Hero Honda
'After having practised Transcendental Meditation twice daily for
about 20 minutes each time, during the last 6 months, I am much
more relaxed even during moments of high pressure. My memory is
also better. My relationship with my family members and colleagues
in the office has substantially improved. The so called factor of
luck or good fortune is even more evident in a number of critical
situations. I am over 60 and have been practising yoga for the last
44 years. Despite this, TM has certainly been a great help in substantially
improving the quality of my life.'
-- Shashi Ullal
President and Managing Director, Hughes Escorts Communication
LTD
'I have practised Transcendental Meditation since 1974, and now
more than 100 co-workers at Ericsson apply this technique. I find
it much easier to implement new ideas, as I have the drive to formulate
and propagate them in a constructive way. It's also easier to take
and accept new things and resolve conflicts between old and new.
There is also more direct communication in the organisation.'
-- Eva Salomonsson
Director of Technique and Quality Department, Ericsson, Sweden
'We have chosen MCDP to achieve a well-balanced personality development
of our employees. Those of us who have practised TM in SRF have
reported many benefits-better alertness and calmness as well as
freedom from many stress-related health problems. All these will
doubtless improve harmony and teamwork in our organisation, besides
improving the lives of our people.'
-- Ramanathan
President HRD, Sri Ram Fibres LTD
'Transcendental Meditation has been very helpful to me in solving business
as well as personal problems. I find that the practice makes me feel
deeply relaxed, and my attitude has become more positive. I am sure that
Transcendental Meditation will be instrumental in bringing joy and
happiness in the lives of many more people.'
-- Ratan Jindal
Managing
Director, Jindal Strips
'Transcendental Meditation, for me, is the means to get back to
myself. It gives rest, solidity and insight into the happenings
around oneself. For me, Transcendental Meditation works at the fundamental
level of mind and body, integrating them both more and more. '
-- Pieter Koridon
Management Develop-ment Manager (ret.) IBM, Holland
'In many published research studies, the Transcendental Meditation
technique has been shown to be the most effective technique for
reducing stress and re-balancing the biochemicals in the body to
produce improved physical and mental health. This has been corroborated
by research showing that practice of the TM technique reduces health
care utilisation by 50%. Because of the benefits of the TM program
for prevention of disease, I recommend that it be covered by all
health care providers. In that way we can prevent forthcoming disorders
that are extremely costly -- not only financially, but also in terms
of human pain and suffering.'
-- Hari Sharma, M.D., FRCPC
Professor Emeritus, Former Director of Cancer Prevention and
Natural Products Research, Department of Pathology, The Ohio State
University College of Medicine
'Transcendental Meditation increases the integrity of the functioning
of the whole brain physiology. It is very useful for relieving the
tension of the mind and in developing creativity. Having a method
to restore tranquillity of the mind is in great demand these days.'
-- Hideo Itoh, M.D.
Industrial Doctor, Toyota Motor Company, Japan
