MERU Academy

MERU Academy Looking for a place to truly rest and experience the Self? Many find the clarity and rest stay with them long after they leave.

At MERU in Vlodrop, the Netherlands, we offer courses, retreats, and events based on Maharishi Technologies of Consciousness. In April of 1975, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi founded Maharishi European Research University (MERU) in Switzerland – a university promoting research into consciousness as a field of all possibilities. In 1984, MERU purchased a campus in a national forest near Vlodrop, the Netherl

ands. It was here where Maharishi spent the last 18 years of his life. Over the last four decades, MERU International has played many roles in the international Transcendental Meditation (TM) organisations. We’re the headquarters for the TM organisations’ administration worldwide, a health centre and organising partner for conferences on health care, and a host for courses and retreats for the global and local TM communities. But above all, MERU is a centre for knowledge – a place for understanding Maharishi’s profound framework of life. Helping the global TM community grow in the understanding and experience of consciousness, MERU continues the mission Maharishi gave us: to promote a healthy, vibrant, and peaceful society for all.

Is it as simple as just saying “The calmer you are, the clearer you think.” ? Reaching that calm state is the tricky part, unless you know how to get there without forcing it.

That’s the beauty of the Transcendental Meditation technique. Unlike other types of meditation, there’s no concentration, no control of the mind, no contemplation, no monitoring of thoughts. It is effortless. 🌊

If you already practice TM, you know how good that silence feels and at MERU Academy, we’ve created the perfect space to dive even deeper into it. Our retreats offer the chance for extended group practices and profound knowledge that you just can’t get in a busy daily routine.

We want to make sure our upcoming calendar reflects what you’re looking for. Is there a specific course or retreat theme you’d love for us to host? Let’s chat in the comments! 👇

Let’s try a simple attention exercise to see where our focus goes while breathing. Dr Tony Nader ( ) points out a few specific things for us to look out for.

Did you notice yourself focusing on any of these? Maybe your jaw was a bit tight, or perhaps your shoulders felt a sense of relief as they relaxed.

Since these are so helpful to remember, save this post for the future. And if you know someone who needs this reminder, tag them or send it their way. 🤍
