  • I was diagnosed with a personality disorder in my teens, and I started practicing meditation and it totally changed m life and allowed me to start seeing the world as it truly was without trauma and stress and anxiety.

    "It can be done in a car... If somebody else is driving." Bob Roth, this brought a smile to my face.
  • @sumitraghani
    He dropped his phone and was still calm about it. That's got me convinced it works!

    Was diagnosed with GAD about 6 months ago and instead of taking anti-depressants, I started practicing mindfulness and transcendental meditation daily. I feel like a completely different person from who I was 6 months ago. I have emotional stability and control. Trust me folks, this works.

    I dove in when I was 37, that's when my spirit finally woke up.

    TM along with guitar were my greatest friends when I got out of military and had to deal with PTSD and hopelessness. Its the divine gift that creator embodied in every one of us
  • @AaronRennaker
    When he says “gotta, gotta, gotta” OOF, that triggered an immediate awareness to my default programming. Thank you!
  • I have seen him when my father hosted him at Trincomalee, Sri Lanka. This was in the mid-1960s. I was happy to come across this video today 30.12.2023

    TM is the only meditation where I don’t fall asleep and don’t feel bored. It’s so powerful. Thank you Universe.
  • @bettinabarr9107
    Only two days into learning TM and it’s everything he says it is. What a fantastic thing to practice.
  • @tcalvibe25
    His voice alone calmed me down...I fell asleep.

    Learned how to do Transcendental Meditation back in the early 70's when I lived briefly in Colorado. Meditation (in various forms and technique) has remained a powerful tool in my life still today. Thank you for the video.

    Guys, if any of you have any doubts about TM, don't. It really works. I used to suffer from really debilitating anxiety and it really helped me. I'm completely independent.

    TM has changed my life 🌻 I’ve struggled with clinical depression and GAD my entire adult life and this is the only thing that has ever given me peace. I had tried so many things to help with this (drugs, other types of meditation, alcohol, yoga) nothing has impacted me as profoundly as TM. After my first time practicing the technique I felt like I had become a new person. It’s worth every penny. I’m current 24 years old and am so happy I found TM. Your thoughts are not your enemy. You don’t always have to numb yourself to escape. We just need to heal and TM is the only thing I’ve come across that helps you heal from within. If you’re watching this video wondering if you should try this, I highly encourage you attend an intro class close to you and get educated on how this practice can help you. Pure consciousness>

    I have been using TM for about 50 years.. TM "Transcends" the environment as well as the mind, and with practice, can be done anywhere, anytime, even standing in a subway car. When your mind becomes neutral, you are aware of what's going on but you are also more able to receive cosmic enlightenment.

    Here because of lady on Oprah in 2007 who was 70, but looked like she was 35
  • @kimberlyj4538
    Learned TM in a Quaker Meetinghouse in 1973 in Pennsylvania. My boyfriend fell asleep. LOL. I, on the other hand, found a technique that has stayed with me since then, through good times and bad. It has become imperative for me to practice. So much good comes from it. I apply it throughout the day when I am fighting what is rather than letting lufe flow through me. Truly liberating.
