Programs for Human and Social Development
The ancient cultures of Latin America, Africa, and Asia have a great potential for enjoying protection of their cultural integrity, enjoying economic growth, and higher quality of life. These ancient cultures are an intangible heritage to humanity to be preserved in their full highest dignity.
In addition to protecting the ancient cultural practices, the organization offers Maharishi Programs for Human and Social Development and Promotion while supporting the ancient cultures of Latin America, Africa, and Asia through Consciousness-Based Education and Consciousness-Based Vedic Education for cultural integrity and social development.
The organization is dedicated to the betterment of society through the worldwide promotion of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi programs for human and social development, and the preservation and promotion of ancient cultures.
We provide a comprehensive approach using a wide range of Maharishi’s proved programs, to open a door for more rapid progress in these areas. The range of these solutions includes Consciousness-Based education, with Transcendental Meditation and group practice of the TM Sidhi program, natural healthcare, environmental sound architecture, sustainable agriculture practices and Consciousness-Based Vedic education in those ancient cultures connected to Vedic traditions.
Our foundation’s social development programs includes the group practice of these time-tested Maharishi technologies of Consciousness, which offers an integrated support to the protection of the culture and the development of the full value of the people, preserving their cultural differences. We are thereby supporting the Mayan cultures in Mexico and Central America or the related Inca and indigenous cultures in Peru, the Aymara in Bolivia, or the Bantu of Southern Africa, or the indigenous tribes in Asia, or the Vedic families of India and Nepal.

Offering two proven methods to produce change from the inside out.
1. Create a powerful influence of peace from within for the citizens.
2. Bring increased security, positivity and progress for their city, state and nation.
There are two approaches to solving a social problem—from the outside in, and from the inside out. In the past, the most common approach has been to work from the outside in. This means analyzing and addressing the external effects of a problem, and then trying to decrease those negative effects on individuals, and for society as a whole.
The government might pass new laws to combat crime, begin to enforce existing laws more strictly, add more streetlights, or patrol high-crime areas more frequently. In some cases, these “outside in” approaches can bring an improvement in the quality of life for the people living in that area.
But there is another approach that is much more effective, working from the inside out. This means addressing the root cause of the problem at its source, and involves creating more orderly or coherent brain functioning for the people themselves.
Change
from the Inside Out
Proven Technology
​
Fortunately, there is a proven technology for solving problems from the inside out—including all of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s proven technologies for human and social development, which this foundation is sponsoring.
Change coming from the outside can create a negative feeling of “I have to.” Change coming from the inside creates a positive feeling of “I want to.” This is why inner change is more authentic, reliable, and lasting.
We feel good when we change from the inside out.
We organize projects and grants that are carefully thought through to accomplish a specific target and we plan a project implementation and evaluation to a specific group through the programs of Consciousness- Based education and other technologies for holistic human and social development, and community improvement.
