Transcendental Meditation

The Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique is a simple, natural and effortless mental technique. It is practiced by millions of people worldwide of all ages, vocations and social conditions. TM is not a religion and is practiced by people of many religions. Decades of research verify its benefits for mental and physical health and even its effectiveness at developing the qualities identified with self-actualization, fulfillment and peak performance. See TM-Women.org and TM.org for more information.

 

The TM technique comes from an ancient tradition of knowledge of human potential called the Vedic Tradition. Often considered a spiritual tradition, a more complete analysis reveals that it is a holistic scientific tradition that has led to fundamental concepts in physics, mathematics, medicine, the social sciences, and architecture. The Vedic tradition utilizes various mental and physical techniques to develop human potential including Yoga, Ayurveda and the TM technique.

Mother Divine Program

The Mother Divine Program is administered by independent non-profit, nonsectarian organizations based in the USA, Europe, Asia and New Zealand. It is comprised of an international community of women who practice the Transcendental Meditation® technique and its advanced programs.

 

Established in 1981, the focus of the Mother Divine Program is women’s self-development and inner peace as the foundation for peace in society. The name Mother Divine reflects the universal qualities inherent in women of all walks of life that touch the lives of their families, communities and society as a whole.

The Mother Divine Program offers educational opportunities for women—ranging from weekend retreats to year-long enrichment courses and academic degree programs—in a protected, nourishing environment. More than 2400 women and girls from 60 countries have participated in the Mother Divine Program as of 2019.

Currently courses are offered at small residential campuses on five continents including North America, South America, Europe, Asia (Thailand), and Australasia (New Zealand).
