The Power of Transcendence

Book excerpt: How can a technique that is so simple to practice be so tremendously effective in its results? This is the question award-winning author Ann Purcell addresses in her new book, which examines the power of the Transcendental Meditation technique (TM) in bringing fulfillment to life. Through over fifty short articles, The Power of Transcendence explores a range of topics including health, education, the environment, women, creativity, relationships, and love, and shows how transcendence brings fulfillment to each area. Ms. Purcell also dives deeply into spiritual topics-yoga, enlightenment, silence, well-being, heaven, and God-as well as profound experiences of higher states of consciousness.
