    What are the methods of transcendental meditation, I'm sure one must be truly enlightened to open that state.

    Transcendental Meditation (TM) is a proprietary meditation method taught by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and his teachers. It is a great technique, which is somehow related to the previous Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, or Northern India.


    One certainly cannot sum up meditations as being TM and 'Other." There are countless meditations. TM utilizes the principle that the more silent mind is more charming and blissful than normal thought, and so all one needs is a method of diving into that peaceful state, and that method is the TM mantra.


    It is well worth the money as TM is very simple and easy. However the technique costs like 2,000 bucks so people fiind themselves gravitating to cheaper methods.
