Avec le professeur de MT
Joignez-vous à nous chaque jour pour une puissante méditation de groupe en ligne dédiée à la Création de Cohérence pour le Canada — et au-delà.
En nous réunissant chaque jour à la même heure, nous amplifions notre conscience collective et rayonnons la paix et l’harmonie dans l’environnement. Comme l’a magnifiquement dit Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, « il n’y a qu’une unité, une totalité unifiée, une loi naturelle totale, dans la conscience unifiée transcendantale ».
Les participants ont exprimé leur gratitude et leur sentiment de solidarité, ce qui en fait une expérience véritablement unificatrice. Joignez-vous à nous pendant 20 minutes chaque jour, votre participation contribue à l’évolution pacifique de notre pays et du monde.
L’événement a lieu tous les jours à 14h00 ET / 11h00 PT.

Experience Circle — Exploring Ordinary Experiences of an Extraordinary Nature
2026-05-24 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With TM Teachers Anne-Mareike Chu, Mark McCooey, and Special Guest Jeff Bauder
Our monthly Experience Circle provides a platform for TM practitioners to share their journeys toward growth, inner peace, and higher states of consciousness. By learning from each other’s experiences, we can accelerate our progress and continue to evolve.
We begin our session by interviewing TM practitioners who have experiences in the direction of Higher States of Consciousness so that their words might trigger a resonance with our own experiences, which, at times, can seem too abstract to understand fully.
Our guest this Sunday the 24th will be Jeff Bauder, a long time meditator and siddha. Jeff was born into experiences of divinity and these experiences grew, first with his home religion of Roman Catholicism and then flourished with his TM-Sidhis practise. Join us for a very interesting session with Jeff as he tells us stories of this divine connection unfolding from childhood onwards.
After our chat with our guest, we will enjoy conversations with our Zoom participants about their experiences in a “circle format,” going from one person to another for a brief insight into their current experiences.
Through this shared experience, we can gain inspiration, insight, and motivation to continue on our journey toward higher states of consciousness.
What one of our zoom participants has said about the Experience Circle:
“What I like about the Experience Circle sessions is the simple, direct descriptions of Higher States from everyday people that I respect; and not theoretical descriptions that sometimes seem so far out of reach.”

Toronto TM Essentials: Discover Your Full Potential
2026-05-24 16:00 - 18:00 (America/Toronto) | Toronto TM Centre, 100 Front Street West (Retail floor - below main lobby, Toronto, On, M5J 1E3, Canada
There is more to life than waking, sleeping, and dreaming. As TM practitioners we have begun to experience a fourth state of consciousness known as transcendental consciousness or samadhi.
However, that’s not the end of the story. Maharishi has delineated the knowledge of the progression of enlightenment into seven states of consciousness.
In this session, Maharishi describes the hallmarks of these seven states of consciousness. He provides a concise explanation of how each state of consciousness has different qualitative changes in perception and sense of self.

Crossing Thresholds of Consciousness in Human Awareness
2026-05-26 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With Special Guest Dr. Mike Tompkins, hosted by John Cowhig.
All of us practicing Transcendental Meditation know directly what it means to cross a threshold of consciousness: when our awareness settles into that silent, unbounded field — we cross a threshold in awareness.
Dr. Mike Tompkins will show us how humanity has always sought out “crossing places” — both inner and outer: thresholds where the boundary between our daily world and a deeper reality becomes thin. From the ancient cave paintings of France to the sacred “tīrthas” (places of pilgrimage) of India and Ireland, our ancestors used myth and ritual to map a territory they knew was real.
They recognized that the “ford in the river” was more than geography; it was a metaphor for a transition in consciousness that we experience today as the “Gap”—the silent, unbounded field encountered in our meditation. The Gap is the interval between two thoughts…between two sounds…where one has ended in silence and the next has not yet emerged from silence.
This presentation will explore the remarkable continuum between these ancient maps and our practice of TM. We’ll look at how the epic heroes of myth, like Cú Chulainn and Achilles, provide us with “compressed models” of the same physiological coherence we measure in the brain today. What was once seen as a mysterious “warp-spasm” of the hero is revealed to be a systematic reorganization of the human nervous system toward its most efficient and powerful state, and often where the true nature of the hero is revealed for the first time.
Then he will discuss our role in what is becoming a “Second Axial Age.” By understanding the mechanics of the Gap, we see that we are not just meditating for personal peace but are acting as modern-day heroes. By creating coherence within ourselves, we contribute to a global “Phase Transition,” enlivening the fundamental field of Natural Law that supports and stabilizes our entire society.
Born into a lineage of writers and speakers, Mike was a National Merit Scholar and Presidential Scholar and graduated with honours from Harvard. His ancestors, John and John Quincy Adams, served as American presidents, and Daniel Tompkins was the sixth American vice president. In keeping with family tradition, Mike ran as the vice-presidential candidate of the US Natural Law Party in 1992 and 1996.
Mike stands out as one of our most talented and prolific writers and speakers. For decades he worked closely with Maharishi, who deeply appreciated how Mike could put his ideas into accessible language.
More recently, he led the editorial team for Dr. Tony Nader’s New York Times bestselling book, Consciousness is All There Is, and was both the writer and host of the videos in the Consciousness Advisor training course.
Please join us as we trace this 40,000-year legacy from the caves to the world stage.

Creating Coherence Meeting with Special Guest Dr. Cesar Molina
2026-06-02 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With TM Teacher John Cowhig and Special Guest Dr. Cesar Molina.
Cardiologist César Molina, M.D., F.A.C.C., explores the importance of keeping both mind and body in balance amidst the pressures of contemporary life. He also explains why it is so crucial for doctors, nurses, and other health care professionals themselves to stay grounded and centred if they want to give their patients the best possible care.
Dr. Molina is a highly sought-after, widely published, Silicon Valley physician and leader in community and corporate wellness programmes. As the Medical Director of the South Asian Heart Center at El Camino Hospital in Mountain View, California, he helps create health management programmes that address the twin epidemics of heart disease and diabetes.
He has appeared on the international edition of CNN, discussing how diet, exercise, and the Transcendental Meditation technique can support heart health and help with coronary artery disease. His research papers have been published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology and the American Journal of Physiology.
Dr. Molina received his medical training at Yale University and his advanced training in cardiology at Stanford University Medical School, where he later became a faculty member. He currently holds dual fellowships in cardiology and clinical pharmacology from Stanford University Medical Center.
In 1972, during his senior year of high school in Puerto Rico, Dr. Molina learned TM, and in 2023, he completed the TM Teacher Training Program. Now, alongside his medical practice, he enjoys teaching TM at the Palo Alto TM Center in California.
