TM develops higher IQ – research findings:

Researchers carried out a study on students who regularly practiced Transcendental Meditation at Maharishi International University in Fairfield, Iowa, USA. The findings were clear that TM develops higher IQ. In point of fact what the researchers saw was the meditating students significantly increased intelligence over a 2-year period. This improvement was in contrast to the control subjects from another local university who failed to show any improved IQ.

This finding corroborates the results of two other studies showing increased IQ in Maharishi International University students.

Reference 2: Longitudinal effects of the Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi programme on cognitive ability and cognitive style, published in Perceptual and Motor Skills 62: 731-738, 1986.

But, in addition, every time you meditate you radiate blessings to your family, your community and your whole nation. This is because you are contributing to the amazing 1% effect. You see, TM isn’t just about improving health and developing higher IQ. Another major facet is that meditators also have a powerful influence on their local environment. In fact, the research shows that as little as 1% of the population meditating will reverse negative trends in society. (Read more about the 1% effect or Maharishi effect here.)

Later on, once you are well-established with your meditation, and if you want to take the technique further you are able to train up to become a TM-Sidha. At which point you may join one of the Super Radiance groups around the world dedicated to creating peace on earth.
