Maharishi's Programmes

Ayur-Veda is the world's oldest, most perfect, and most comprehensive system of natural medicine. Ayur-Veda originated in the Vedic Civilization of ancient India and is officially recognized by the World Health Organization.

Maharishi Ayur-Veda, Maharishi's Vedic Approach to Health, and Maharishi Vedic Medicine represent the modern restoration by Maharishi of the complete and authentic practice of Ayur-Veda as recorded in the Vedic Texts.

'Vedic Law, Justice, and Rehabilitation must replace the prevailing system of law, justice, and rehabilitation in order to make law nourishing to all, justice equally satisfying to all, and rehabilitation effective for all.' —Maharishi
Ideal India—Lighthouse of Peace on Earth (536-page publication)

Maharishi's Programmes in the field of Law, Justice, and Rehabilitation are achieved through Vedic Education, Vedic Health Care, and Vedic Administration, which unfold the potential creativity of Veda—the total potential of Law—in the consciousness and physiology of everyone, so that the impulse of Cosmic Law, Total Law—Natural Law—becomes the guiding light of their own life.

Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation Programme has been proven to dramatically counteract the debilitating effects of chronic stress so prevalent in our society and school systems. Research has shown its ability to reduce violence in stress-ridden inner-city schools, reduce drug and alcohol dependence and criminal behaviour, and reduce recidivism among maximum-security inmates.

Maharishi's Vedic Approach to Rehabilitation has been practised in prisons and probation programmes around the world for over thirty years. Results have been remarkable, with offenders reporting a wide range of benefits.
