“Good but unable to access library after hours of trying both app and trying to register on website.”

(Marin, CA) - Posted 2 years ago

“Although I’m happy to have learned the technique, I don’t believe I received $1000 worth of instruction listening to a PAINFULLY repetitive app for 3 days and doing 10 minute Zoom meditations with my teacher. I felt like everything could have been condensed to an hour or two max. of learning. The high price of the program and all the secrecy comes off as a bit cultish.”

“The technique is helpful, but it's not a good value. I thought the cost was exorbitant.”

“I'm doing it as instructed.”

(Tampa, FL) - Posted 3 years ago

“It's more than just the technique. The technique came packaged with an instructor, information and history.”

(Brentwood, MO) - Posted 3 years ago

“I couldn’t meditate as good as my friend has because the mantra assigned to me had a meaning in my native language so in general it wasn’t as good as expected. However in general I still recommend it.”

(San Fernando Valley, CA) - Posted 3 years ago

“The meditation timer has crashed on my app and will not reset, even after choosing yes to end meditation. It continually spins. Restarting my phone only sometimes fixes it.”

(Lansing, MI) - Posted 3 years ago

Hi Travis, We’re sorry the app timer has crashed on you! We suggest deleting the app and reinstalling. If that’s doesn’t fix the issue please contact the support team within the app itself.

“It doesn't seem to be working for me. I try and try but don't see the benefits yet. Many people talk about the quick benefits.”

(Summit, NJ) - Posted 3 years ago

Hi Joseph, We're sorry your TM practice isn’t living up to your expectations! The amount of time it takes to notice benefits can vary person to person, so we encourage you to continue practicing regularly, and perhaps schedule a free follow-up with your TM teacher to discuss your experience and fine-tune your practice, if needed. Your teacher will be happy to hear from you!

“Ambiguous and superficial teaching.”

(San Francisco, CA) - Posted 3 years ago

Hi Fernando, We're sorry to hear you're disappointed in your TM course! Every aspect of the course was designed intentionally by our founder Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, to ensure that anyone, no matter their learning style, can learn to practice correctly. It might feel repetitive to some but learning to practice the technique correctly is essential for getting the maximum benefits. With over 60 years of teaching the TM technique worldwide, we've seen time and time again how important a follow-up session can be. We encourage you to seek a free, personal follow-up session with your TM teacher to discuss your experience and clarify any lingering questions you may have, especially if you aren't enjoying your practice or seeing any benefits.

“I've been meditating for just short of two weeks. I feel it's not as easy as was described. It's hard for me to sit down in the afternoon and relax. I'm committed to continuing the practice as stress reduction and higher consciousness is my goal. So far its still a struggle.”

(Bellevue, WA) - Posted 3 years ago

Hi Tresa, We're sorry you're not enjoying your TM practice fully! A reminder that having completed the TM course you can schedule free, personal follow-ups with your TM teacher any time, to discuss your experience and fine-tune your practice (if needed) so that your mediations are effortless, enjoyable and you are gaining the maximum benefits :)

“The teaching and practice were great, but I don't understand why we weren't allowed to take pictures or notes of the white board for later reference. Also, I asked why we should avoid hallucinogenic drugs before TM and was told that it's because cannabis clouds the brain. Cannabis is not a hallucinogenic. I also feel that the income based pricing is not proportionate to the income brackets. People who make the most money are paying way less compared to their income than people who make less money. I do understand the value in the practice, and would pay what I paid again knowing what I know now, but it still seems that pricing is not really based on income in a set way.”

(Fairfax, VA) - Posted 3 years ago

Hi Zack, We're happy to hear you are enjoying your TM practice! Regarding the course materials, it's important those are kept private to avoid people mistaking certain aspects of the practice for the technique as a whole. We invite you to schedule a free follow-up call with your TM teacher who will be happy to discuss your concerns around cannabis and our sliding-scale course fees in more detail than we have space to here :)

“generic info, most of it can be found on the web”

(Silicon Valley, CA) - Posted 3 years ago

Hi Ann, As you know having taken the TM course, the TM technique is very simple and easy to practice. However, it's also very nuanced, which is why this specific meditation is taught in person by certified TM teachers (not online or in books). Our founder, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, carefully designed the TM course to be an interactive experience to ensure each student is practicing correctly. It might feel overly simple and repetitive to some but is essential in practicing the technique correctly and gaining maximum benefits :)

“The technique is definitely superior to other techniques I have tried and I am very happy to have learned it, however the cost of the course is disproportionate to the instruction received. I feel strongly that I overpaid. Furthermore, the fact that the training is stretched out over 4 days is absurd. This course could be completed in a 3-hour classroom session with 1 follow up phone call.”

(Austin, TX) - Posted 4 years ago

Hi Judson, We appreciate the feedback about your TM course, and are happy to hear you're enjoying your practice :) We also wanted to remind you that the TM course fee not only includes instruction in the TM technique, it also includes free, personal follow-ups, group meditations and meetings with any TM teacher in the US on an unlimited basis for life!

“I am still learning.”

(Jackson Hole, WY) - Posted 4 years ago

“Although the technique is basic, it has an advantage over the other meditations by allowing your own personal experience. I was looking for an answer to my issues and discovered this is not the quick fix I expected, that is on me. I'm sure with time I will discover the pros to this system. The rating is not a judgement on the system, but on the difficulty I am having trying to "make it work".”

(Phoenix, AZ) - Posted 4 years ago

Hi Michael, We're sorry to hear your TM practice hasn't been what you expected! We wanted to remind you that the TM technique is suppose to an entirely effortless and enjoyable process. Also, having completed the TM course you're able to schedule a free, personal follow-up with your TM teacher to discuss your experience, and fine-tune your practice if it's found that is needed :)

“The teacher was great, the information useful, but at an extraordinary expense. My practice continues. Why make it an exclusive club? You either have to have a lot of money or you have to know someone who will give you a break on the fee. As an organization, I would think you would want to make the practice accessible to everyone, not just the few who can afford the time and expanse. Ouch”

(Minneapolis St. Paul, MN) - Posted 4 years ago

We are glad to hear you are happy with your TM course and practice, and appreciate your concerns! We make every effort to keep the TM course fee as affordable as possible, while still allowing our non-profit organization's small administrative team and professionally trained TM teachers to earn very modest livings. Over the past several years we have steadily reduced our course fees from $2500 to $960, and recently implemented sliding-scale course fees starting at $380, despite rising costs. We also offer grant support when available for those who need it, as well as reduced rates for students and children, as it's our goal that anyone who wishes to learn the TM technique be able to.

“I don’t feel I have been practicing TM long enough to feel the benefits yet ( help falling asleep at night).I will continue to practice with hope for a more restful sleep experience.”

(Providence, RI) - Posted 4 years ago

“I feel it's too early to see any true results of the practice, however, I'm hopeful and it seems like it will have future benefits. I found the extra sessions talking with the group and asking questions beneficial, all be it, at times extremely repetitive. All in all, I'm looking forward to my TM practice.”

(Berkeley, CA) - Posted 4 years ago

Hi Leah, We wanted to remind you that having completed the TM course you are able to schedule a free, personal follow-up with your TM teacher any time for a tune-up if you ever feel you need it, as well as attend group meditations and meetings :)
