  • Maharishi's Talk on Self-Realization

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this talk, Maharishi explains that the Self is never really lost. Only the sense of the Self is lost. The Self is the very basis of everything; it is omnipresent. But in order to experience it, we must transcend the field of experience and penetrate from the gross to the subtle to the subtlest level of experience. Then the Self reveals Itself to Itself.
