M.I.M.’s Consciousness Based Education is completely unique in management education today. The basis of this approach is the use of Maharishi’s Vedic Science and Technology to develop the Consciousness of every student. As students become more alert and awake, they naturally gain a more complete appreciation of every field of study.
There are three aspects of knowledge: the knower (the consciousness of the participant), the known (the field of study), and the process of knowing (which connects the knower to the known). Modern education focuses only on the known, the field of study, and excludes the other two-thirds of knowledge, the knower and the process of knowing.
MIM’s Consciousness Based approach attends to all three values of knowledge. Through development of the participant’s consciousness, the knower and process of knowing become more and more lively and awake. Participants gain more complete appreciation of the known — the field of knowledge being studied.
M.I.M.’s Consciousness Based Education includes the Transcendental Meditation¨; and TM-Sidhi Programme; and the collective practice of Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi Programmetechnologies proven to develop all qualities necessary for perfection in personal and professional life. These programmes are practised twice daily (once before classes and then at the end of classes) by all students and faculty, thereby assuring the systematic unfoldment of the full potential of the individual. In addition, the complete understanding of the managing Intelligence of Nature is brought out in advanced courses. These courses have been specially designed to familiarise future managers with this most powerful level of Nature’s administration — and to train them to use it for themselves and their organisations.
Benefits of this unique Consciousness Based system of education include the development of:
Full Support of Nature
Training at M.I.M. makes use of the latest discoveries about how Natural Law administers all levels of creation. When the most fundamental level of Natural Law — the quantum level of functioning — is enlivened in the manager, management becomes self-sufficient, orderly, free from weakness and mistakes, supported by Natural Law and therefore invincible.
Full Creativity
Daily group practice of the Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi programme develops the full creativity of each student, thereby preparing them for maximum contributions in all areas of personal and professional life. Research findings show that through this practice individuals gain access to the hidden reserves of the brain, the total potential of Creative Intelligence, the holistic value of brain functioning.
Full Alertness
Through the regular practice of the Transcendental and TM-Sidhi programme, the full alertness of the student is developed. This natural state of full alertness — all-directional silent dynamism — is the basis for success in every endeavour. This added competence is explained by extensive scientific research demonstrating the development of ‘FIELD INDEPENDENCE’ in the manager’ awareness, which means the ability to maintain a balanced state of mind and broad comprehension along with the ability to focus sharply even in the midst of dynamic activity. As a result, expansion of one’s responsibility is a joy rather than a means of increasing stress.
