Transcending is the Basis of Enlightenment

Normally throughout the day, we experience the busy active everyday level of thinking. When we practise Transcendental Meditation we experience a state where the mind is completely silent, yet wide awake.

Transcend means "go beyond", and this is the transcendental state: the mind has gone beyond all activity. This is an experience of the inner Self, which is perfect peace.
Transcending is natural and a universal experience, known to all cultures, however, it occurs rarely and usually by chance. Transcendental Meditation provides a systematic method to transcend that anyone can practise.
Without this experience of transcending, we only have access to the constantly changing phase of life. Our thoughts, emotions, plans, memories - everything is constantly changing. No wonder that we may feel increasingly separated and isolated from the non-changing inner quality of life - the Self.
People often report that when they learn Transcendental Meditation, they feel more connected, more at one with themselves, more fulfilled and happier.

Enlightenment

"Enlightenment is the normal, natural state of health for the body and mind. It results from the full development of consciousness and depends upon the perfect and harmonious functioning of every part of the body and nervous system. When one is using the full potential of the mind and body in this way, every thought and action is spontaneously correct and life-supporting. This is life free from suffering, life lived in its full stature and significance."

Maharishi

The desire to know yourself

The desire to know yourself and understand your connection to the universe is natural. For centuries, it has inspired saints and sages to turn within seeking enlightenment. When most people enquire about Transcendental Meditation, they are looking for the simple, practical everyday benefits that the practice brings.
However there are also those who want to learn Transcendental Meditation for reasons which may be difficult to put into words, for self-knowledge, self-awareness, inner peace, spiritual development and enlightenment. All these are equally valid reasons for learning, and are, in a sense, exactly what Transcendental Meditation provides.
Transcendental Meditation provides access to the profound silence of the inner self that is deep inside everyone. With regular practise, the peacefulness and bliss of that inner experience is naturally integrated into daily living leading to an enlightened life with a fully developed heart, mind and soul.

"Transcendentalna meditacija je tehnika koja mi je pomogla da shvatim da u meni, u mom sopstvu, stanuje Duga! Koliko bi mi samo život bio kvalitetniji da sam se sa ovom moćnom tehnikom upoznala u svojoj najranijoj mladosti. Duboko sam zahvalna svojoj učiteljici, Natasji Čičić, koja mi je pokazala da i na Zemlji, u ovom obliku života, postoji Raj! Da je mir u duši moguć. Da najbolje stvari na svetu, nisu stvari..."

"Transcendentalna Meditacija je za mene, prvenstvo, sjajan alat u savremenom životu, jedan od puteva da bolje upoznate sebe i bolje percipirate svijet oko vas. Praktikujući TM promijenio sam odnos prema sebi, kao i prema spoljnim utjecajima. TM je za mene način da na dubljim nivoima svijesti neposredno osjetim sopstvenu intuiciju. Tehniku Transcendentalne Meditacije možda nije lako objasniti riječima – to je predivno duhovno iskustvo koje svako treba doživjeti!"
