Maharishi’s Science of Creative Intelligence: An ideal system of education designed to develop enlightenment in every student
by Global Good News staff writer
4 June 2008

In this talk, which is published in a special pocket-sized book Maharishi Speaks to Educators: Mastery over Natural Law, Maharishi began by saying, ‘Young people are becoming increasingly aware that the potential of human consciousness is much greater than that which has been experienced until now. Maharishi University of Management is one university in the world where a student can develop the unbounded potential of consciousness—enlightenment.’

Maharishi formulated a systematic, scientific procedure to develop this full potential of human consciousness. The Science of Creative Intelligence and its practical aspect, the Transcendental Meditation Programme, combine ancient Vedic wisdom with the principles of modern science. These principles and practice of the Science of Creative Intelligence form the basis of the educational system at Maharishi University of Management and all Maharishi schools, colleges, and universities around the world.

This programme for the development of higher states of consciousness is systematic. The first stage is the experience of silence within the Self, pure consciousness, through Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation Technique.

Through the regular practice of Transcendental Meditation, the nervous system becomes increasingly pure, and pure consciousness is experienced more and more clearly. On the basis of this growing experience of pure consciousness, when the student begins the practice of Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation Sidhi Programme, the wholeness of consciousness becomes active within itself.

Maharishi said, ‘Through the Transcendental Meditation Sidhi Programme the student begins to experience and understand that the level of unmanifest activity exists within the Self. When the student functions from this level, all his desires are fulfilled by mere intention.

‘The final stage in the growth of higher states of consciousness is to experience that activity and silence are one. This is Unity Consciousness, the highest level of enlightenment, in which all values of life are unified as a single wholeness in one’s awareness.’

In addition to this full development of consciousness, students at Maharishi University of Management enjoy the highest standard of education in the traditional academic disciplines. The science of consciousness, Maharishi’s Science of Creative Intelligence is the focal point of all the streams of knowledge.

‘By studying all disciplines in the light of the Science of Creative Intelligence, the student sees that his experience of the development of consciousness is based on the same principles of Creative Intelligence that are expressed in the different disciplines,’ Maharishi said. ‘The Science of Creative Intelligence thus provides a unifying basis for all the traditional academic disciplines.’

The ideal education structured at Maharishi University of Management can easily be applied to the educational system of any country in the world. This will create an ideal society and perpetuate the Age of Enlightenment.

Maharishi concluded, ‘Higher education should be for higher consciousness. Graduates of Maharishi University of Management are enlightened individuals who enjoy the support of all the Laws of Nature for everything they wish to accomplish.

‘The leaders of society are those who best express the potential of their time. As the importance of enlightenment grows in the awareness of the world, the leaders in society will be those enlightened individuals who are established in unbounded awareness and are at home with every field of knowledge. Maharishi University of Management is creating the leaders of the Age of Enlightenment.’
