Summary
The Mechanism of Transcendental Meditation
Highlights
The Theory of Thought Evolution
Thoughts originate at a deep source (level Z) and evolve into conscious awareness (level A). By consciously tracking these thoughts to their subtler stages, the mind can access deeper levels of awareness and increase its overall conscious capacity.
The Technique of Transcending
Transcendental Meditation trains the mind to experience thoughts at increasingly subtle stages, eventually reaching the source of creative intelligence. By transcending the subtlest level of thought, the mind achieves a state of pure consciousness or self-awareness.
The Appeal of Bliss
The practice is inherently attractive because the mind naturally seeks greater happiness. As the mind moves toward the bliss of absolute Being, it finds increasing charm at every step, making the process both simple and automatic for any individual.
Expanding Mental Potential
As the mind accesses deeper levels of thought, its conscious capacity expands significantly. This process maximizes mental potential, allowing the conscious mind to encompass more depth, effectively unlocking the full power of the intellect.
