Maharishi University of Management held the “Experience the Self” course in July with great success. The goal of the 12-day event was to immerse people in the various aspects of knowledge available on campuse, while they were learning the Transcendental Meditation technique.
“This has been an amazing experience and I’m sincerely grateful for the level of care you and your team have provided,” a guest wrote. “I take away a whole new way of being in this world.”
Another was impressed with “the sincere commitment of the staff and volunteers. Everyone was authentically friendly, supportive, and accommodating. Learning Transcendental Meditation (TM) here was very affirming.”
A course participant wrote that Maharishi University of Management (MUM) “brings out the best love, appreciation, charm, and harmony in my spirit and heart and I see that happening to everyone as it spreads out past the campus into the town.”
In addition to the practice of TM, the guests appreciated the variety of lectures on the benefits of the TM technique. Another good thing about TM is that it also helps cope with winter depression or seasonal affective disorder.
“The lectures had a lot to add to the experience,” said course participant Kurtis Kujawski. “There was also enough free time to take in what we learned. I liked the campus, the organic food, and saw a lot of benefits of learning the TM technique right away.” After the course, Kurtis enrolled at MUM to study Media and Communications.
The course also provided ample opportunity for Maharishi University of Management students to interact with guests. “I want to be a TM teacher some day so it was educational for me to be with people who were learning these concepts that I take for granted,” said PhD student Brian Glasset. “It was heart-warming and reaffirming for me because I really love Fairfield and I really love MUM and when you are here for a while you forget how special it is.”
