“When I sit with my students and meditate with them, I channel the kundalini directly into them. I bring them to plane after plane of consciousness. What they would do in 100 years of meditation, I can do in an hour with them.” YearsI CanCan DoHoursConsciousnessMeditationStudentsBuddhismPlanesRama Author:Frederick Lenz

“Like students going to school, the planes on their bombing missions fly over Beijing each morning. And each time I hear their engines attack the air I feel a certain slight tension, as if I were witnessing the invasion of Death, though this heightens my consciousness of the existence of Life.” IfsFeelsSchoolCertainExistenceConsciousnessMorningAirStudentsMissionsPlanesTensionEnginesExistentialInvasionBombingBeijingExistence Of Life Author:Lu Xun
“When I speak to students about the Civil Rights Movement, I say that it is impossible to stop a determined movement that is captivating the American consciousness. I think the candidacy of Sen.

“Consciousness-Based Education is education that is in most ways exactly like regular education, but with the added technique of Transcendental Meditation. Transcendental Meditation, or TM as it's often referred to, allows students to dive in and experience the unbounded ocean of consciousness within each of us, the big treasury, the field within each of us that is the base of all matter and all mind. It's been found that transcending and experiencing that unbounded, eternal level of life does wonders for education, and for human beings.” WayMindHumansDoeMatterBigsFoundHuman BeingsLevelsConsciousnessWonderMeditationFieldsStudentsOceanEternalTechniqueTreasuryTranscendentalTranscendingTranscendental MeditationLevels Of Life Author:David Lynch
“Tied to consciousness are all positive qualities, so that ocean within is an ocean of unbounded intelligence, unbounded creativity, unbounded happiness, unbounded love, unbounded energy, and unbounded peace. And when students start expanding consciousness in those positive qualities, their relationships improve, their grades go up, their happiness goes up, the fighting and bullying stops, and things get very, very, very good.” FightingEnergyConsciousnessQualityCreativityStudentsOceanVery GoodGradesBullyingTiedExpanding Author:David Lynch
“The side effect of expanding consciousness is that negativity starts to evaporate; it goes away like darkness when you turn on a light. Many students have so much torment, stress, depression, sorrow and hate in them these days, but then they get this technique and the negativity starts to go away. They start to feel good because the torment is leaving. Their health gets better and they get happier, their comprehension and their ability to focus grow, their grades go up and a joy for life grows; all of which comes from within.” FeelsLightJoyHateTurnsGrowsSidesAbilityConsciousnessDarknessFocusEffectsStudentsSorrowStressLeavingTechniqueFeel GoodThese DaysGet BetterGradesGoing AwayNegativityTormentExpandingTurn-onComprehensionSide Effects Author:David Lynch
“True renunciation can be attained by anyone - whether a millionaire, parent, student, politician, farmer or engineer. It's not what you have or don't have; it's your state of consciousness. In essence, it means that true peace that comes from true renunciation arrives when we understand that nothing is mine. Whatever intelligence I have, whatever abilities I have, whatever family members I have, whatever wealth or property I have, is the sacred property of God or the Divine.” MeanParentWealthAbilityConsciousnessStudentsDivinePoliticianPropertyFarmersMillionaireRenunciation Author:Radhanath Swami
