The pace of everyone’s life seems to be speeding up. We do need a good dose of ‘silent physiology’ regularly. Stress and fatigue in the nervous system prevent us from experiencing our full potential.
Join us for a day of peace and well being. It is a rewarding day. It will deepen your experience of TM.

ANOTHER YAY INDIA! TOUR–LEAVES SAT 14TH MARCH 2015
Yay India! We are going again in March. We spend a week (or more) at the Brahmasthan and then you do some sightseeing in India or come home. Its a fabulous way to experience the deepest spirituality India has to offer with all the support of a trusted network of friends, meditators and sidhas.
Here is some of the feedback on the last trip:
 “This has truly been one of the best weeks of my life. I will keep my memories of the Brahmastan close to my heart (and look forward to supporting you in realising Maharishi’s vision for world peace).” Another: “It was an awesome experience.” And another: “It was a great inward experience and will be treasured in my heart of hearts forever.””I am so grateful that you suggested that I go to the Brahmasthan–I really had the most wonderful time. I feel so refreshed and energised. I have been continuing with the program here at home and loving it.” And finally: “I would like to say thank-you very much for organising and encouraging us to do the trip. It really was a fantastic and very special experience and I certainly will be going back.”
