Restored to its original effectiveness, the Transcendental Meditation technique was introduced to the world in 1957 by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.

One of Maharishi’s important contributions has been to subject the Transcendental Meditation program to scientific scrutiny by inviting scientists to conduct extensive research on the practice, thereby establishing the TM technique’s practical benefits on the objective ground of modern science.

Tens of thousands of teachers have been trained by Maharishi, and the Transcendental Meditation technique is taught in the same way everywhere. Instruction in the Transcendental Meditation technique by qualified teachers is available in virtually every country, and over 5 million people have learned the practice worldwide. When the Transcendental Meditation technique is taught today, it is taught through the same effective procedures used by Vedic teachers thousands of years ago.
