"First experience, then understanding, then application, then verification, then authenticity; then organize to perpetuate this holistic path of enlightenment through the tradition of teaching in the long corridor of time.

The tradition of teaching has its source in the flow of the eternal wholeness of knowledge.

Every teacher of this holistic science of life is a moving WHOLENESS." —Maharishi

Maharishi Speaks to Educators presents a wealth of knowledge for everyone. The 856-page, four-volume set provides detailed main points from lectures given by Maharishi from 1970 to 1986. Twenty themes of knowledge are presented, with four to ten lectures included in each theme.

All readers will receive an education in Maharishi Vedic Science simply by reading the lecture points on themes such as Maharishi’s Absolute Theory of Education; The Foundation of All Systems of Education—Ancient and Modern; Maharishi’s Ideal of Education; and ‘Fruit of All Knowledge’—Maharishi’s Gift to Every Student.

For example, two main points from a February 28, 1978 lecture summarize one recurring theme:

To gain more and more knowledge, to accomplish more and more, is the nature of life. To know more and create more it is necessary to expand the container of knowledge—consciousness.

The universal lack in education is that it does not prepare the learner for learning. Consciousness, which is the basis of learning, can be expanded to contain the entirety of life. The Science of Creative Intelligence is the direct way to unfold this infinite creativity in man.

In the Conclusion, Maharishi presents the vision of a fully educated student. "When a student realizes that the sequence of evolution begins within himself and covers the whole range of diverse creation, and when, through the vision of all modern disciplines, he realizes the common basis of all disciplines in his own pure intelligence, then he finds himself as the goal of all modern pursuits of knowledge.

"At this point the culture of a student’s mind is so profound that he is incapable of making mistakes. The student ceases to be a seeker of knowledge; he rises to be the embodiment of all knowledge. He has realized the goal of student life—mastery over Natural Law—and is prepared to enter professional life as an enlightened leader of society for the coming generations.

"This is the wisdom of life for every student; this is the beacon light of good fortune available to every student in the world."
