Maharishi Mahesh Yogi first introduced the Transcendental Meditation technique to the world in the late 1950’s and during his lifetime revived many other practical programmes based on the knowledge of the ancient Vedic tradition of India. You can take advantage of these even before you learn TM. Scroll down through the following summaries …
Maharishi Ayurveda
Treatments include Maharishi Light Therapy With Gems
When the connection with the bodys inner intelligence is lost, imbalances arise and symptoms of ill health appear. Maharishi Ayurveda focuses on identifying these imbalances at an early stage and eliminating them comfortably. It enlivens the bodys inner intelligence to stimulate and enhance internal self-repair mechanisms, allowing healing to occur naturally from within.
Maharishi Consciousness-Based health care programmes are prevention-oriented, time-tested, free from harmful side effects, and easily applied. Their therapeutic approaches are based on natural healing principles thousands of years old and consist of lifestyle management advice as well as clincial procedures.

———————————————————————————————————————————— Maharishi Vedic Architecture
Main building … Maharishi Vedic Academy, Silverdale, Auckland
When it comes to natural homes, earth-friendly design and materials are just a first step. To create the most positive influence, deeper and more universal principles of Natural Law must be considered.
There are fundamental patterns and relationships found everywhere in Naturefrom tiny molecules to massive galaxies. These same structuring principles are used by Vedic Architecture to design homes, offices and cities that promote success for the people who live and work there.
‘Because the individual is cosmic, everything about individual life should be in full harmony with Cosmic Life. Maharishi Vedic Architecture gives dimensions, formulas, and orientations to the buildings that will provide cosmic harmony and support to the individual for his peace, prosperity, and good health – daily life in accord with Natural Law, daily life in the evolutionary direction.’ – Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Orientation – Every house faces due east or due north, and is oriented exactly to the earths equator and the axis of the north and south poles.
Placement – Each room in the home is carefully placed to resonate with the different energies of the sun as it moves across the sky.
Proportions – The mathematical proportions of the house and each room are calculated according to ancient Vedic formulas.
Natural Materials – Natural and non-toxic materials are used to avoid the hazards of toxic materials and construction methods prevalent in modern architecture.
Take advantage of the time-tested design principles of Maharishi Vedic Architecture in your home and office, and enjoy a new level of stability, comfort and success in daily life.

Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture
Food grown with artificial chemicals can put a strain on your body and cause poor health. These chemicals are also toxic to the environment. For these reasons, organically grown food is better. Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture is better yet it goes far beyond current organic standards. It uses Vedic technologies to enliven the intelligence and vitality within the plant itself, to provide the most nourishing, healthful, and life-enriching food available anywhere.
Farmers following the principles of Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture live in harmony with the Laws of Nature. The result is improved health for the farmer, the family, the nation, and the environment. The farmer, together with the soil, the seed, and the weather, produce an abundance of healthy and life-supporting food. Visit: www.mvoai.org
According to the Maharishi Vedic Astrology programme, also called the Maharishi Jyotish programme, prediction of future events is possible because the same orderly and sequential Laws of Nature which govern the evolution of the universe also govern the life of the individual. By knowing any one point in the sequence, such as the time and place of birth, an expert can mathematically calculate forward and backward in time.
Knowing future trends can help us make better decisions in life. The Maharishi Vedic Astrology programme offers valuable predictive insights concerning tendencies in all areas of our life: health, partnerships, finances, education, career, and family relationships. Services also include analysis of compatibility between two or more persons, and selection of a favourable moment to begin an undertaking.

Maharishi Gandharva Veda Music
Maharishi Gandharva Veda music is a powerful tool for creating balance and harmony in the listener and peace in the world. It is based on melodies called Ragas and each Raga replicates the qualities of Nature at different times of day and night. Each day is divided into eight three-hour periods, which correspond to the changing qualities of Nature throughout the day. Specific Ragas are played during each time period to restore balance in Nature for that time of day.
A wide selection of Ragas is available on audiotape and compact disc. Its best to listen to Maharishi Gandharva Veda in a comfortable position – sitting or lying downwith the eyes closed. It can be played 24 hours a day in a quiet room of your home or workplace. Even when no one is listening, the music generates a peaceful, soothing atmosphere that uplifts the whole environment.

"I had tried to meditate before with the breathing and all the other stuff when I did yoga, but with TM that is the only time I had that stillness, the only way I've ever been able to sit long enough that I open my eyes and I'm sad that it is twenty minutes later. It just gives me that peaceful, peaceful feeling and I love it so much ... I can't say enough good things about it." - Ellen DeGeneresThe experts tell us how the TM program prevents disease, improves health and promotes longevity.
Our goal is to make the TM technique available to everyone.
