| Transcendental Meditation |
| Transcendental Meditation was founded by Maharishi Mahesh in 1957. TM is a means of experiencing "pure awareness." It involves sitting comfortably, with eyes closed, for 15 to 20 minutes twice a day while one mentally repeats a mantra. In TM, a mantra purportedly is a "thought-sound" that has a known vibratory effect but does not have a designative meaning. The TM teacher chooses a mantra suitable for the initiate. |
