Main Points from Maharishis Lecture of 5 July 1977 Seelisberg, Switzerland ‘It is the flow of speech from the teacher to the student that cultures the student and instills knowledge in him. When the teacher is functioning from the level of infinite correlation, he possesses that skill of speech whereby his expressions convey the totality of his intention. ‘In education, the ‘principle of the highest first’ is to deliver unbounded awareness to the student to unfold in him the knowledge that his speech is rooted in the unboundedness of the whole cosmos, the field of Para*. ‘The Upanishad describes the Atma, the Self, as infinite silence, non-dual, pure potentiality, the field of unboundedness, Transcendental Consciousness. This field of Para*, the Self, is the foundation of all knowledge. ‘The theme of Vedic Education, stated in the Bhagavad-Gita is to open one’s awareness to the unbounded value of Para* in order to raise the suffering individual to the height of supreme happiness, the field of all possibilities. This is the means to put an end to all suffering, which results from a limited vision of life.’ —Maharishi Mahesh Yogi * Para is Transcendental Consciousness, the field of all possibilities, the Absolute, non-changing field of consciousness.
