Anyone who can think a thought can practise the Transcendental Meditation technique successfully and enjoy its benefits.

Why You Can Meditate Successfully

If you’ve tried other types of meditation that involve effort or concentration, you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the Transcendental Meditation technique. It’s one of the easiest things you’ll ever learn. There’s no effort involved—just a simple technique that uses the natural tendency of the mind.

Why the Transcendental Meditation Technique Is So Easy

What is the natural tendency of the mind? Sometimes it seems like the nature of the mind is to wander, constantly moving from one thing to the next. But there is a purpose to this movement of the mind. The mind moves due to its natural tendency to seek out fields of greater charm, greater creativity, and intelligence.

There is a rich, unbounded field of creativity, energy, and intelligence within each one of us, at the quietest level of our mind. No other field of life could possibly be more charming or fulfilling to the mind. We only need to present the opportunity to take an inward direction, and the mind, drawn by its own nature, will settle down to quieter levels.

The Transcendental Meditation technique sets up the initial condition for the mind to move in the inward direction, and then the natural tendency of the mind does the rest. It’s just like diving—all we need to do is take the correct angle, and gravity does the rest.

It Works for Everyone

You can learn and practise the Transcendental Meditation technique successfully because your mind already holds the potential to settle down and experience quieter levels of the thinking process. You simply need a technique to start that process comfortably, reliably, and on a regular basis.

Although you have this potential within, you’ll need to learn the Transcendental Meditation technique personally from a qualified teacher. Your teacher will guide you through the experience of effortless meditation, provide a clear understanding of what is happening in mind and body during the practice, and prepare you to meditate successfully for the rest of your life.
