Transcendental Meditation: mechanics of experiencing finer levels of the mind

www.TM.org Transcendental Meditation: mechanics of experiencing finer levels of the mind
1. Dr. Hagelin: There are a number of questions. Some are pretty basic; I think some of the principals are relatively new to Maharishi's knowledge. The first has to do with how Maharishi's TM works. The question is: The claims for the results of Transcendental Meditation are numerous: improved test scores, improved emotional development, less stress, less violence, etc. It's all quite impressive, but to be honest, almost too good to be true. My question is: How does TM work? What happens during the practice? How can a student sit with his or her eyes closed for ten or fifteen minutes and receive so many benefits?
2. Teaching Transcendental Meditation, step by step, the mind is led on to the transcendental field. There are a few thousand teachers of Transcendental Meditation. More are being trained all the time.
3. Transcendental Meditation works in the same way for the mind as the slope of a mountain works for a stream of water. You put a bucket full water in the slope: it just trickles down, by its own nature.
4. Mind always flows to a field of greater happiness. Experience of the Transcendental field is bliss. And this bliss naturally makes the mind trickle down to finer experience, and trickle down to the transcendent.
5. It is the habit of the mind to be drawn to greater happiness; by this nature of the mind the mind trickles down to experience Transcendental Consciousness.
6. So from tiny fields of joy, one gets to the ocean of happiness, which is called bliss.
7. By Nature, the transcendental creeps into the field of the boundaries.
8. Without the experience of transcendental field, life will remain unsatisfactory, distorted.
9. There are different states of consciousness: waking, dreaming, sleeping. Transcendental Consciousness is also a state of consciousness, as sleeping, dreaming, waking is. Furthermore, Cosmic Consciousness, God Consciousness, and Unity Consciousness, are different states of consciousness. Parents should see that they send their children to that teaching institution where they'll be led on to develop all the seven states of consciousness.
10. Education should not be employment based.
11. It's for educators to decide if they want their children to be fully enlightened.

Your heart holds the key change the way you think about the things in your (sight) in the now not the yesterdays or the tomorrows.... treat them like they are a part of god giving you messages
just think of everything as a living from of conciousness and your heart will change (transcendental conciousness)
