‘A groundbreaking new prep school—a boarding school for 400 boys—is planned to open Fall, 2008 to train a new generation of enlightened leaders for the world.’
This is the announcement on the website for a new Consciousness-Based Education school, Maharishi Academy of Total Knowledge—High School for Leadership, which opens its doors to students at the start of the next academic year, one year from now.
A unique feature of this school is the architecture of the buildings. Built according to Vastu Vidya, the principles of Maharishi Sthapatya Veda—the world’s most ancient and complete system of architecture and planning, —Vedic architecture takes into account the influences on the individuals living in the building of the sun, moon, stars, and planets with reference to north and south poles and the equator
“Because the individual is cosmic, everything about individual life should be in full harmony with Cosmic Life. Maharishi Sthapatya Veda 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
Vedic Architecture utilizes an ancient knowledge that establishes everything in the most orderly way so that everything is nourished by everything else. This architecture takes advantage of the most fundamental laws of Nature that promote perfect health, happiness, and prosperity. It uses precise mathematical formulas, equations, and proportions to design homes and offices in perfect harmony with Natural Law.
People who live and work in these buildings report that they think more clearly, make better decisions, feel happier and healthier, feel more alert and refreshed throughout the day, have more restful and refreshing sleep, have more energy, less stress, and greater peace of mind. Thus this architecture is an ideal environment for the orderly thinking and creativity of the students, so that their learning process is effortless, efficient, and enjoyable.
Maharishi Sthapatya Veda design is the only science that has the precise knowledge and time-tested formulas used for site selection, proper orientation, positioning, and placement of rooms according to their purpose.
According to Maharishi Sthapatya Veda design, health and good fortune, as well as the development of higher states of consciousness, are profoundly influenced by the Vastu, which includes the orientation of the building, the position on the building site, the slope of the land, the direction of entrances, placement of rooms, and the orientation of the approaching and surrounding roads.
The Maharishi Academy Campus will be one of the first campuses in the USA to have these special buildings, located on 450 acres in Antrim, NH.
