A summary of research on the Transcendental Meditation technique

[acousticgrooven]

 Meditation is only a means to building and reinforcing positive qualities in yourself. When you're meditating you're essentially enhancing your neural networks. The more you meditate the more your mind becomes familiar with these subjects. You can meditate on any topic, meditation is focused learning. This is what benefits a persons life. You construct patterns of redeeming qualities and from this you reap the rewards. Also the calming affect as it reduces stress, added benefit.

I learned it for free. i was a long time meditator prior to learning it so it came easy. It has improved every area of my life. Bad habits have seemed to just fall away without even trying to quit doing them. They just didn't make sense anymore. they should teach this in schools

[MarioJPNeto]

of course what you need is you!

when you meditate, who is there?, obviously is you!

what you said has no meaning my friend.

TM has a big difference from other technichs, it could be proved cientifically!

[HDvids101]

TM works and a lot of other stuff works also.

Don't get trapped in paying too much for some 'technique' ;-)

Search the Internet and if you are serious about meditation and quietening the mind you will find all the information you need r .

All you need is YOU. :-)

I feel a lot of people can't believe this work just because it's so simple :) I mean, they go like "THAT is?! Nahh..". LOL

Thank you for the upload :)

Isn't consciousness a function of the brain? I can't see why the assumption is made that everything is consciousness and consciousness is the unified field. For example, a rock isn't conscious. It doesn't react to it's surroundings.

ive been trying to achieve this technique for awhile and have had no progress the only thing ive had progress in is astral projection but i still haven't really even achieved that either.....any advice anyone ?

[2HundredPercent]

@greggz892 If you want to make progress with TM, learn the technique from a qualified teacher. The course is very thorough and doesn't cut any corners. Check out the official TM website to find out more about it.

John Hagelin, marry me. We shall discover the unified field, and have many babies together.

[DaZippha]

There is so much more that one achieves practicing the TM technique, yet to explain or describe these benefits to those who have yet begun the TM technique can be almost counterproductive because the reference points are not theirs, they have nothing to relate it to....yet it is what one has been looking for all their lives. It is real. The upper states of consciousness and the benefits associated with each state is real also. It is all mechanical, it has nothing to do with a belief system.

[BoxingPride]

truly amazing...

[AnandLokraj]

hagelin you are the man

no doubt bout it

Transcendental Meditation is researched soooo much by why aren't that many people doing it?

Beats me

[1981z28camaro]

Binaural Beats is also another great thing to use.

[TheStapleremover]

ima try it

[kickjackpip]

There's been so much scientific research on TM. Surely the politicians, health experts, and educators, can see a diamond when they see one?

[arzoyan]

I agree that TM can be great benefit to our well being but what is the true cause if not CAPITALISM a profit driven society that has created a world of wage slavery for immense majority a world of war,fear, exploitation of us and our evviornment.

[MrEandtheDUKE]

@arzoyan the true cause seems to be ourselves, indirectly not being one with self....If you can logically agree that if every person in the world was taught this, and practiced it on a daily basis. They would find a center within themselves. Having said this, all of the problems we see today, would cease to exist....Consciousness creates your reality, if you are immersed in TM, only beauty, love, one-ness would expel from our reality.

[awakearound]

yeah, brew. just find yourself a certified TM teacher. go onto a TM blog or website and you'll get the info you need.

it's great brew!

[7788red]

ok how do u do it?

where do I get started?

[JackDuran]

Just find yourself 15-20mins twice a day to sit comfortably but in good posture and try to let thoughts just pass through your head.

That's how I've started, I've no idea what should come next, though.

[smittentosea]

I tried doing it by myself in the beginning but it was a waste of time. So I took the steps and found myself a certified Transcendental Meditation teacher. They can be found all over the world. You just need to get in touch with a local TM center. Or go on one of their websites for the right info . Reading the research is really motivating. It's a great technique.

[2four6ate]

I like the studies that show comprehensive positive results which haven't been found elsewhere. And that TM is simple, easy, and completely natural.

[2HundredPercent]

What he said at the beginning is so true... TM is basically just a really good stress release technique. But by doing that, it makes every single cell in your body work better - hence the hundreds of benefits in all areas of life.
