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
2025-10-26 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With TM Teachers Mark McCooey & Anne-Mareike Chu.
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.
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.”
Click on the button below to join the session on Sunday, October 26th, at 2pm Eastern/ 11 am Pacific for the next instalment of our monthly series.
Begins with a 20-minute group

Dear friends of the Experience Circle,

We are excited to invite you to a new experiment in deepening our collective exploration of Higher States of Consciousness.

For three weeks in October, we will form a small group of 12 participants who will meet once a week via Zoom for 60–90 minutes. This format is designed to encourage open dialogue and meaningful connection.

Format
Each session will feature 4 participants sharing their experiences, guided by questions from course leaders Mark and Anne-Mareike. The format will be conversational and designed to support a natural, free-flowing exchange.

Each of the 4 participants will have approximately 15 minutes to share.
The final 30 minutes of each session will be devoted to group discussion and reflection on the points raised.

Over the 3-week cycle, everyone in the group will have a turn to share.
This small-group format is meant to foster:

A sense of peer connection—everyone in the session is sharing equally
A safe, supportive space to explore profound and personal experiences

Our past experience suggests that these small groups naturally develop a warm, collegial atmosphere where participants feel increasingly at ease with one another.
In the fourth week, all small groups will rejoin the larger Experience Circle for the monthly community gathering.

Interested in Joining?
If you’d like to participate, please send an email to experiencecircle@tm.org with:

Your interest in joining a small group
How many Experience Circle sessions you’ve previously attended
Your preferred month (October, November, or January)

If interest exceeds available spots for a given month, we may ask you to participate in a later group — thank you in advance for your understanding.

We hope this new format will bring even greater openness, insight, and support to the sharing of our precious experiences.

Toronto TM Essentials: Discover Your Full Potential

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.

Creating Coherence Meeting
2025-10-28 14:00 - 14:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With TM Teacher John Cowhig and Special Guest Natalie Miller
Natalie Miller, VSIE Principal, will show us how, for over 25 years, Consciousness-Based Education has created a truly exceptional learning environment for grades 1 to 8 — with few of the problems challenging most Canadian schools.
What started as a modest basement school with 11 students has blossomed into a thriving community of 80, with plans to soon establish a high school.
What Sets This School Apart?

VSIE students develop an integrated vision of life through the practice of Transcendental Meditation and the study of the Science of Creative Intelligence — the laws of nature that structure growth and progress in all of nature, including human life.
Students enjoy a rich nature education program with daily outdoor experiences, visiting local forests, mountains, and beaches. They learn about ecosystems, native plants, and how to restore lost habitat.
VSIE has small class sizes to ensure every student gets individualized attention. This personalized approach is key to helping each child thrive academically and emotionally.
Join us to hear about an ideal school for young students.

Different Types of Meditation Produce Different Results
2025-10-29 16:00 - 17:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With Dr. Guy-Paul Gagné
In this session, you’ll learn the key differences between meditation types. Researchers have classified meditation techniques into three categories:

Automatic Self-Transcending – Transcendental Meditation
Open Monitoring – Dispassionate observation (contemplation) and non-evaluative awareness of ongoing experience
Focused Attention – Concentration, sustained focus, and voluntary control of attention and cognitive processes

Dr. Gagné will help you understand the scientific basis for these meditation categories and examine how TM uniquely impacts the brain and body compared to other forms of meditation.
Take this opportunity to gain expert insights into the transformative effects of TM.

Because the session is designed for non-meditators, it will not include a 20-minute group TM.

Join TM Teacher Ashia Fredeen for a special Advanced Knowledge Meeting!
After a 20 min group meditation, we will enjoy a short audio recording of Maharishi talking about the topic of Love and Friendship.
« Friendship is most rewarding on the level of love. Love is unifying. It brings the two together in the waves of happiness. This is love. Friendship also is the same thing, brings the two together in appreciation, in happiness, in waves of love. » -Maharishi
Afterwards, we will dive into this topic and discuss how our TM Practice helps to soften the heart, increase our ability to love, and bring more fulfillment to our relationships.
We look forward to seeing you there!
