The Transcendental Meditation technique (abbreviated as TM) is the technique associated with the practice of Transcendental Meditation developed by the Indian spiritual figure Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The practice involves the use of a private mantra, and is practised for 20 minutes twice per day while sitting comfortably with one's eyes closed. Unlike some other approaches to meditation, TM instruction encourages students not to be alarmed by random thoughts which may arise, but to easily return to the mantra when one becomes aware of this.

dbo:abstract
  • La técnica de Meditación Trascendental o TM es una forma de meditación silenciosa con mantra, desarrollada por Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.​ La práctica de esta meditación implica el uso de un mantra y debe practicarse durante 20 minutos, dos veces al día, mientras se permanece sentando con los ojos cerrados.​​ Es una de las técnicas más ampliamente practicadas, y de las más investigadas, con más de 340 estudios publicados mediante la técnica de revisión por pares.​​​​​​ desde principios de 1965, la técnica de Meditación Trascendental ha sido incorporada a escuelas, universidades, empresas y programas de prisión en los Estados Unidos, Latinoamérica, Europa, e India. En 1977, un tribunal de distrito federal de EE. UU. dictaminó que un currículum en TM y en Ciencia de Inteligencia Creativa (SCI), que era enseñado en algunos escuelas de New Jersey era religiosas por naturaleza y vulneraban la Primera Enmienda.​ Aun así, la técnica ha sido incluida desde entonces en numerosos programas educativos y sociales en todo el mundo.​ La técnica ha sido descrita como religiosa y no-religiosa; una especie de movimiento religioso nuevo, arraigado en el Hinduismo, y una práctica no religiosa para el desarrollo personal.​​​​​ Durante sus 50 años, la técnica ha tenido visibilidad en los medios de comunicación de masas y una propagación global eficaz, y se ha usado como herramienta de marketing. En 1970, la Ciencia de la Inteligencia Creativa, descrita como una combinación de "ciencia moderna con antigua ciencia védica", se convertía en la base teórica para la técnica de Meditación Trascendental.​​ Sin embargo, la Ciencia de la Inteligencia Creativa es contemplada de forma general como una pseudociencia.​ (es)
  • The Transcendental Meditation technique (abbreviated as TM) is the technique associated with the practice of Transcendental Meditation developed by the Indian spiritual figure Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The practice involves the use of a private mantra, and is practised for 20 minutes twice per day while sitting comfortably with one's eyes closed. Unlike some other approaches to meditation, TM instruction encourages students not to be alarmed by random thoughts which may arise, but to easily return to the mantra when one becomes aware of this. Advocates of TM claim that the technique promotes a state of relaxed awareness, stress-relief, creativity, and efficiency, as well as physiological benefits such as reducing the risk of heart disease and high blood pressure. The technique is purported to allow practitioners to experience higher states of consciousness. Advanced courses supplement the TM technique with the TM-Sidhi program. The methodological quality of scientific research on the therapeutic benefits of meditation in general is poor, because of the varying theoretical approaches and frequent confirmation bias in individual studies. A 2012 meta-analysis published in Psychological Bulletin, which reviewed 163 individual studies, found that Transcendental Meditation produced superior results in "reducing negative emotions, trait anxiety, and neuroticism" as well as improving "learning and memory" by comparison with other meditation approaches. The same study found that these analyses were "mostly conducted by members of the Maharishi International University". A 2014 Cochrane review of four trials found that it was impossible to draw any conclusions about whether TM is effective in preventing cardiovascular disease, as the scientific literature on TM was limited and at "serious risk of bias". However, a 2015 systematic review and meta-analysis of 12 studies found that TM may effectively reduce blood pressure compared to control groups. (en)
