Ideal Education through Maharishi’s Science of Creative Intelligence

The following are main points from a lecture Maharishi gave in Switzerland in 1978, on the role of education in making the national invincible.

Maharishi said that the ground for success of all activity in society is coherence in collective consciousness. This coherence in consciousness is brought about by the individual through his daily practice of Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation.

'Higher consciousness should be the goal of higher education, and success in every undertaking should be the achievement of every educated man,' Maharishi said.

The Transcendental Meditation Programme creates enlightened individuals whose thought and action arise from the level of Transcendental Consciousness, the field of all possibilities. Action from this level is evolutionary, fulfilling, and successful.

'Suffering has been a part of life because consciousness was not a field of study in education,' Maharishi continued. 'The knower was not realized and therefore knowledge remained baseless and unfulfilling.

'Providing knowledge of the knower expands the student's learning ability. When the student's mental potential is fully unfolded, his thought will be most powerful and will be in accordance with Natural Law,' said Maharishi. 'All his thought and action will automatically produce a positive influence in the environment.'

Maharishi's gift to the world is a more coherent level of world consciousness today. Any country that imbibes this system of education, [Consciousness-Based Education] into its educational system will enjoy an ideal society free from problems, with invincibility for the nation.

'Generations of educators have been longing for a perfect system of education,' Maharishi said, 'a system through which every educated individual would be intelligent, successful, and a glory to his environment. It needed a scientific age to provide a systematic procedure to accomplish this highest ideal of educators.'

Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation and Transcendental Meditation Sidhi Programme is this systematic procedure to create an ideal man. This programme is based on the nature of life itself, which is growth and evolution motivated by Natural Law.

'Educators everywhere have always been progressive and eager to adopt anything that will enrich education,' Maharishi said.

By introducing Consciousness-Based Education into every level of education around the world, educators will realize their highest aspiration to bring education to fulfilment.
