Program areas at Maharishi Purusha Program

We averaged over 70 participants in the Purusha program in the USA focusing on the development of full human potential by enlivening the entire brain through the practice of the TM and TM-Sidhi Programs. The group experienced more and clearer experiences of higher states of consciousness through the practice of MVS. Located in our facility in WV, these participants contributed to National Super Radiance, thus adding to the coherence created both for the United States and the world. By enlivening collective consciousness the coherence creating group helped the unfoldment of world peace and harmony. MPP also donated $ 384,879 to the Global Capital of World Peace Inc. to help with the construction and operation of our home in West Virginia. This donation is listed above as part of the expenses. With over 70 participants located in West Virginia a strong influence of coherence will envelope the Nations Capital in Washington DC which is only two hours away. This influence of coherence will help our Nations Leaders make decisions more in tune with Natural Law. MPP held non-degree courses and educational programs in the Maharishi Vedic Science Programs, and educational programs in developing higher states of consciousness. These courses included World Peace Assemblies, Taste of Purusha and Next Generation Purusha courses, and Advanced Technique courses.
We were very pleased to be able to support the Maharishi European Research University and Stichting SSW, both non-profit organizations located in Vlodrop, Holland, which support the programs and procedures of Maharishi Vedic Science and Technology, including groups of European and International Purusha. These Purusha were located in Vlodrop, as well as in Uedem and Obisfelde, Germany. All of these participants practiced the TM and TM-Sidhi techniques to unfold their full human potential through the development of their entire brain. Many of these participants reported more advanced experiences of higher states of consciousness and a greater sense of Nature operating through them as they gained more and more intimacy with the Laws of Nature that guide all of Life. Many of these participants also helped prepare materials for the advancement of Maharishi Vedic Science around the world.
We averaged over 43 participants in the Purusha program in Uttar Kashi in the mountains of India. These participants focused on unfolding full human potential through the practice of MVS and enjoyed deeper and more frequent experiences of higher states of consciousness. Located in an ideal setting for focusing on the rapid development of consciousness, these participants dedicate themselves to becoming fully enlightened so they can inspire others to unfold full human potential and live totally stress free, blissful and productive lives, supported by all the Laws of Nature.
We averaged between 2 and 4 participants in the Purusha Program in Canada. The funds transferred also helped support other Canadian Purusha located in other parts of the world. All of these participants practiced the TM and TM-Sidhi techniques to unfold their full human potential through the development of their entire brain. These participants reported more advanced experiences of higher states of consciousness and a greater sense of Nature operating through them as they gained more and more intimacy with the Laws of Nature that guide all of life. These participants also helped prepare materials for the advancement of Maharishi Vedic Science around the world.
