“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

“Master those books you have. Read them thoroughly. Bathe in them until they saturate you. Read and reread them…digest them. Let them go into your very self. Peruse a good book several times and make notes and analyses of it. A student will find that his mental constitution is more affected by one book thoroughly mastered than by twenty books he has merely skimmed. Little learning and much pride comes from hasty reading. Some men are disabled from thinking by their putting meditation away for the sake of much reading. In reading let your motto be ‘much not many.” ThinkingMenLittlesBookSelfReadingMeditationStudentsMastersPrideConstitutionTwentiesNotesSakeAnalysisAffectedMottoGood BookDisabledHasty Author:Charles Spurgeon
