Disappointed by D. Carruthers (Colorado)  1 Stars
November 14, 2008
I was under the impression I would actually be reading about the techniques, breath work, mantra, etc. used in TM. I feel like I bought a book of advertising and contact lists. I wish I had read reviews on this before I purchased it!

I love this book! by Lin (Vedic City, IA USA)  5 Stars
July 20, 2008
I love this book about TM. It gave me the answers to the questions I had in mind about Transcendental Meditation. The book is easy to read and I think I found it particularily interesting reading about other peoples experiences of TM. For anyone thinking of learning meditation, I recommend them to read this book.

A remarkable example of marketing drivel by Egor O. Perov 1 Stars
June 02, 2008
Targeting excitable housewives and undereducated middle-managers, this entire book consists of a business case to enroll in one of Mahesh Yogi's schools.
I do not dispute merits of his technique - how could I, if there is not a single word about it in the book?! Thank Zeus I've got this book from the library - I've seen more exciting writing coming out of the Federal Government's accounting departments. One should be paid to read this.

Very Good Introduction by Shorescapes (New England) 5 Stars
January 25, 2008
This is a very thorough introduction to the Transcendental Meditation technique. It doesn't promise to teach you to meditate so I don't know what all the complaints about that are. If you want the benefits that come from the TM technique, you have to learn it properly, from a trained teacher in a series on meetings and personal instruction. Its impossible to learn the real TM technique from a book.
This book does save you the first step of going to learn TM, the Introductory lecture. You can go directly to step 2, the Preparatory Lecture. And then decide if you want the benefits and learn the technique.
If you don't want to buy the book, you can read it online at www.TM.org. But its nice to have around so you can read it anywhere and look clearly at the research. Meditation techniques are very different with very different results. The scientific research is clear that other techniques do not bring the wide range of benefits that come with the TM technique. So don't think that reading a book called "how to meditate" is going to give you the proven benefits of the TM program, shown by 600 scientific studies. It won't give you the free lifetime follow-up that comes with TM instruction either.
So if you want to learn some sort of "meditation" from a book, don't buy this book.
If you want a thorough introduction to the most effective and scientifically-proven stress reduction and self-development technique, you can't go wrong buying this book. Then go to the TM program center and take advantage of the free Preparatory Lecture. You'll have all you need to make a wise decision about whether or not you want to go ahead and learn.

This is not a book on technique. by Mitzi A. Cranmore (jackson, MI USA)  2 Stars
April 24, 2007
This is an easy read with lots and lots of testimonials, however; I did purchase TM with hopes that it would offer details into the technique. It does not. At the end of the book it states the practice is only taught by a TM master at the minimum cost of $2500. That little bit would have been helpful to me before I purchased the book.
