Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, founder of the TM program, talks about the ultimate goal of TM practice: life in a state of inner and outer fulfillment.
The basic changes brought about by TM practice produce underlying stability in life. Once we have exposed the system to this desired change, the change is not just in meditation but also in daily activity, outside of meditation. Meditators find that the experience of the transcendent is naturally fulfilling. Regular morning and evening meditation creates a growing experience of inner fulfillment, leading to a permanent state of physiology whereby that fullness becomes stabilized. This state is known as “Cosmic Consciousness.”
