Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Quotes

"Having the Kingdom of Heaven within you, you have no right to suffer in life, you only have to enjoy the grace of God.”

"Bliss becomes blissful with practice. In our own bliss the desire, desirer and process of desiring are united—they are one. Desire is fulfilled at its source.” Maharishi, July 2005

"When a man has risen to cosmic consciousness, then his state is like that of an ever-full and steady ocean. This state of absolute bliss is the goal of all desires in life.”
Maharishi, from ‘Thirty Years Around the World.’

"Adopt the standard of perfection, because it is a perfect universe. ” – Maharishi, 1989.

"The experience of happiness is a direct means of replenishing life energy and revitalizing the mind.”
– Maharishi, The Science of Being and Art of Living, 1963.

"Identification of the human mind with the field which is infinitely unified in itself—that is the formula for world peace.”

"Attend to your own inner health and happiness. Happiness radiates like the fragrance of a flower and draws all good things towards you. Allow your love to nourish yourself as well as others.

"The only sensible defence strategy today is to be so powerful that one has the natural ability to spontaneously stop the birth of an enemy.
'Maharishi's Invincible Theory of Defence', published 1996

"Hard labour to succeed in the world? Hard labour no, no, human constitution, human physiology, human intelligence is made of infinite creative potential of Natural Law and therefore no-one has to work hard for success. "

If we are able to meet these two requirements - regularity in meditation and leading a good life in society, day-to-day a good life - then nothing would be unattainable by us
. from 'Thirty years Around the World'.

"With this (the Global Maharishi Effect) the 2000 year old gospel of suffering is soon coming to an end, and new civilisation, Vedic Civilisation of enlightenment and fulfilment, is dawning."

"Guru Purnima is the day of infinite correlation.  It is the day of supreme knowledge; it is the day of Brahman; it is the day of Guru; Guru Purnima, the fullness of Guru Dev; the fullness of the element of Guru, the fullness of pure knowledge. 

Guru is the expression of Enlightenment, pure knowledge, the field of all possibilities, the field of infinite correlation.  In that supreme awakening, in that supreme awareness, in the state of supreme knowledge we have wholeness of life, absolute value of Being, pure infinity, pure eternity, pure immortality.  Guru Purnima day is structured in pure knowledge.  It comes year after year to bring the awakening of totality of life.  It unfolds the full potential of knowledge and brings to fulfilment the master-disciple relationship. It is the master-disciple relationship, and that expresses itself in its totality: full potential of all possibilities. It is a very special day, it's a very special day for us."

“We are not satisfied with peace alone. There has to be prosperity, there has to be affluence, there has to be fulfilment in life; not just peace.“
– Maharishi

“When the mind is attuned to the cosmic law, all the laws of nature are in perfect harmony with the aspirations of the mind.”
– Maharishi, ‘Science of Being and Art of Living’.

“That great, mighty current of evolution which is advancing the life of everything in creation is simply invincible—no one can resist it.”

“Nothing from outside can stop a man from enjoying lasting peace and permanent joy in life, for it is the essential nature of his own soul.”
– Maharishi, ’Thirty Years Around the World’

"Cosmic law functions from a level between the absolute and relative planes of life. It harmonises the unmanifested eternal Being and the manifested field of diverse relative existence. It is the power of cosmic law which maintains eternal Being in the absolute state and at the same time maintains the ever-changing phenomenal creation in relative states of life. The unity of life in absolute Being and the diversity of multiple creation are both maintained in their proper spheres. This is the mysterious and all-powerful nature of cosmic law which has its eternal status on the plane of Being."
– Maharishi, Science of Being and Art of Living, 1963.

"The world has witnessed the rise and fall of monarchy, the rise and fall of dictatorship, the rise and fall of feudalism, the rise and fall of communism, and the rise of democracy; and now we are witnessing the fall of democracy... the theme of the evolution of life continues, sweeping away with it all that does not blossom into perfection."
- Maharishi, on the evolutionary direction of Natural Law, 1998

“Let the standard of everybody’s mind be raised to the heights of his own inner glory and then man will feel for himself the greatness of the higher values of life and would be tempted to bring them down into practical life and live them.”

“We begin to engage the Vedic Pandits, and they begin to do the Yagyas…What we are doing is authentic, because it is the text of the Veda – the eternal script. The Veda is eternal script, and it is not humanly conceived. The Vedas are not written by human beings. They are Nature’s, the quality of Natural Law.”
Maharishi, Press Conference, 27 April 2005

“We are now beyond talking. We are engaged in producing the effect… We are engaged in this process of creating that long-awaited, long-desired goal of life in affluence, peace, happiness, harmony, and freedom from sickness and suffering.”
Maharishi, Press Conference 6 April 2005

“It is a beautiful profession that has fortunately, in a very natural way, come to us. We are bringing out a concrete system of invincible administration for every government in the world to bask in that sunshine of brilliance, fulfilment, all positivity. The press should watch, day after day. The process will be silent, but the results will be out in the open for everyone to observe.”
Maharishi, Press Conference 6 April 2005

Maharishi’s challenge to world leaders, March 2005

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 9 March 2005

“Rajas of the Global Country of World Peace are being trained … to create a Royal Union of Invincible Nations.  With this the world is going to be Heaven on Earth.”
Training Programme announcement, Maharishi Vedic University, Holland, March 2005

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 23 February 2005

“The Raja, when he sees somebody happy, when he sees somebody successful, he feels happy, he feels successful. If he feels that somebody is suffering, the swelling in his feelings is that of compassion. One part of himself has forgotten to be connected to the Self. That feeling of compassion is not just a feeling on the level of emotions… He feels in his being a sense of evenness and a sense of firm desire to create...the necessary conditions in order for such ignorance to be removed, so no one can violate Natural Law, no one can create harm for himself or for others.”
Raja Raam, 13 Feb 2005, Coronation of 14 Rajas

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 16 February 2005

"This life of the Raja on the level of Natural Law, this is what it means to be acting from a parental level of administration, like a parent who does not feel that his children are different from him. He feels they are a continuation of himself, and the Raja feels that the people he administers are himself, are a continuation of himself. His desire for them is to be happy, to be prosperous, to be healthy, to live in peace."
Raja Raam, 13 February 2005, Coronation of 14 Rajas

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 9 February 2005

“The Coronation of the Rajas of the Global Country of World Peace is to bring invincibility to every nation and permanent world peace for the whole family of nations, with dignity and honor to every nation. These celebrations have been derived from the ancient record of ruling dynasties of the most ideal system of administration of Raja Raam – administration through the Constitution of the Universe, which governs the infinite diversity of the ever-expanding galactic universe.”       
Press release from GCWP 7 Feb 2005

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 12 January 2005

“'Know thyself' through Transcendental Meditation-and with this knowledge you will have the power to know everything, be everything, and do everything. Like the hollow nothingness within the seed of a tree, which contains the potential of the entire tree, the experience of nothingness in the unmanifest field has within it the lively potential of everything in creation. From that level, you don't have to work hard to achieve anything. You only have to desire what you want and Natural Law will serve you. This is the knowledge we want all of our children to enjoy-now and for all future generations."                         
Maharishi, December 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 5 January 2005

‘I will fill the world with love and create Heaven on Earth’
Maharishi 1959, Los Angeles

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 22 December 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 15 December 2004

"Nature is favourable to our effort when human awareness is being established more and more in pure consciousness."

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 8 December 2004

" Just as a mountain of snow is nothing but water, so also the whole of the universe is nothing but ananda (bliss)."
Maharishi, from 'Thirty Years Around the World'

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 3 November 2004

"Listen carefully — each word is meaningful.  We have the knowledge to create a royal, divine administration. We have the knowledge to raise the administration of every nation to be on a par with the Constitution of the Universe — the light of God — which administers the universe with perfect order. And we are now using this knowledge to create Raam Raj — to create ideal, prevention-oriented administration and eliminate all problems and suffering in the world, just as the rising sun eliminates the darkness of the night."                 Maharishi, Global Press Conference, 27 October 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 27 October 2004

“Naturalness is the basis of effectiveness. If one poses to be something else, one loses the charm of naturalness. The result is that one accumulates stress. We do not think of life – we live it. We do not think of ourselves too much. We do not think of others too much.. We just behave in a natural way. Don’t make moods – wonder what anyone thinks of us. We do not live life on the remarks of others. What others think of us is not our concern – it is their concern. … It is important only that we radiate life. Every individual must be a joy to himself, to his family and to his society."
Maharishi , Kassen, September 1974.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 20 October 2004

“Let the impurities of the atmosphere find a refuge in the ocean of purity in your heart, in the unfathomable joy of your inner pure conscience. When you forgive all nature enjoys your brilliance and returns joy to you.”                                                                                          

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 4 August 2004

"The melodies of Gandharva Veda, with reference to the divisions of time during the day, are based on the movements of the Sun. Gandharva Veda is the music of Nature, which inspires and promotes evolution. Gandharva Veda produces the influence of harmony in one's environment that creates an harmonious influence in the field of consciousness, purifying and nourishing the environmental trends. Gandharva Veda resonates with the Laws of Nature that promote evolutionary trends in life. It neutralizes stress everywhere-inside and outside." Maharishi (23 May 2004)

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 14 July 2004

"Only a few enlightened individuals are needed in every city to establish the Peace Palace and secure the invincibility and sovereignty of the nation. The need is urgent - so do it immediately. There is no time to lose - every moment is important during these cloudy days of destruction and chaos." Maharishi 7 July 2004, Press Conference

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 7 July 2004


" Human concepts, no matter how grand they may appear, have limitations - they are not developed enough to be evolutionary for everyone. The Parliament of World Peace will bridge the gap between the limitations of human life and the unlimited dignity of cosmic life. It will bridge the gap between man made constitutions, with their human weaknesses and failings, and the Constitution of the Universe, which administers the infinite diversity of the ever-expanding galactic universe with perfect order ." Maharishi July 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 30 June 2004

"Whatever has been discovered has to be put to use-otherwise, what is the use of the discovery? Vedic education will give every student direct experience of the Unified Field through Vedic technologies of consciousness, including Transcendental Meditation and Yogic Flying.. Complete knowledge of the Unified Field is not available in books. However, it is easily available to everyone within the transcendental field of his own Self." Maharishi 23 June 2004 , Press Conference

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 23 June 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 17 June 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 10 June 2004

"This (Heaven on Earth) will be the gift of our generation to future generations." Maharishi 02 June 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 3 June 2004

"This is not the inert silence of a stone, but creative silence. We have to find it for ourselves. We decrease activity until silence becomes creative, and we sit in creative silence and close the gates of perception for insight into the content of life. In meditation we research the field without time and space and activity and yet produce a useful effect while conducting the research" Maharishi, 1964, quoted in 'Thirty Years Around the World'

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 26 May 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 19 May 2004

Maharishi, Global Press Broadcast, 28th April 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 28 Apr 2004

"Raja Raam is competent to radiate total knowledge near and far, like the rays of the sun, to brighten the destiny of mankind... [The administration of Raja Raam will be] a lighthouse of total knowledge that will leave no darkness in any corner of the world for any generation... This is what I have been looking forward to. Now, in every generation, there will be a lighted lamp to guide the people to enlightenment."
Maharishi, Akshaya Tritiya Day, 22nd April 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 2 Apr 2004

"A right sense of service trains the mind of the seeker to adjust itself to the status of the integrated mind of the enlightened man....By adjusting itself to the likes and dislikes of the enlightened cosmic mind of the master, the ignorant mind of the seeker gradually gains that same status."
Commentary on the Bhagavad Gita, Ch. 4 v.34.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 28 Mar 2004

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 21 Mar 2004

"The huge ever-expanding universe, with its countless suns, moons and stars, has been engineered by, and is eternally upheld by, total Natural Law - the Unified Field.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 27 Feb2004

The TM-Sidhi Programme enlivens fully the natural relationship existing between mind and body. As brain functioning becomes more and more integrated, consciousness - the mind - becomes more and more invincible, and then any dictate of the mind is immediately followed by the body."
Maharishi Speaks to Educators. Volume 1, 1997

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 28 Jan 2004

'"The Maharishi Principle of Reciprocity shows that there is an intimate relationship between individual and collective consciousness.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK 21 Jan 2004

'"The pursuit of knowledge has shifted under the care and guidance and administration of Raja Raam from only knowing to completely being.
