The TM Technique - A Skeptics Guide

Peter Russell's much acclaimed first book, now back in print.

The TM Technique, is a best selling guide to a technique now practised by millions of people throughout the world. Detailing TM's origins, and how it works, Peter Russell also analyses the wider benefits of advanced study: the development of consciousness and changing perceptions of the rest of the world.

First published in 1976, it is a complete understanding of the teachings of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Part One introduces Transcendental Meditation, its origins; how it works -producing a state of profound rest, exactly opposite to the accumulation of stress and tension; and its implications for health, clarity of mind and creativity.

The second part looks at the higher states of consciousness to which TM can lead.

Part Three considers the implication for society as a whole.

About the Author
Peter Russell studied mathematics and theoretical physics at Cambridge, later turning to psychology as he became fascinated by the subject of consciousness and the untapped potential of the human brain. He studied TM in India under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, trained there as a teacher of TM, and later spent three years researching into the subject at the University of Bristol.

He was one of the first people to introduce self-development seminars to business, and for twenty years consulted to major corporations on creativity, learning methods, stress management and sustainability. He now lectures around the world on consciousness and the future evolution of humanity.

His other books include "The Brain Book", "The Awakening Earth", "The Creative Manager", "The Global Brain Awakens", "Waking Up In Time", "The Consciousness Revolution", and "From Science to God".
