****THIS COURSE IS CLOSED. IT WILL BE OFFERED AGAIN IN A FEW MONTHS.*****

FIrst class is free! This is an online course that took place March 28, 2017 - April 20, 2017 at Maharishi University of Management. It is also called "Mathematics and Consciousness". Part 2 began on July 31 and is available online.

This course consists of the first 8 lessons of a 14-lesson course taught by Dr. Tony Nader, MD, PhD in which he unfolds the details of his 65-page paper "Consciousness Is All There Is: A Mathematical Approach with Applications" which was inspired by Maharishi. This paper was published in the Journal of Mathematics and Consciousness and is breaking new ground in mathematics. Dr. Nader discusses how heretofore unsolved problems can be resolved with this new paradigm.

Each lesson includes a 45-minute video by Dr. Tony Nader with questions and answers and discussion led by Professor Cathy Gorini.

There are also workshop classes which were held on April 1, 8, and 15, 2017 from 1:30 to 3:30 which you can view and have an opportunity to do activities that Maharaja developed for this course.

No previous courses in mathematics are required to take this course.

The course fee is $95, (or $65 for full-time MUM or MSAE staff, faculty, and students, or full-time TM teachers, IAA grant recipients, and anyone who is retired and on a fixed income and cannot otherwise afford the course.)

Also, any MUM Alumni can use the promotional code MUMALUMNI and get a 10% discount off the full course fee.

Reviews

This is a remarkable, profound course that changes one's experience of reality. The knowledge is brilliantly presented. —SM

Consciousness really is all that there is. I understand and appreciate this much more fully than before. —anon

By lesson eight I felt like Maharaja was revealing the inner workings of the mind of God. —DF

Even though I helped edit Maharaja's paper, this course was very illuminating. Gaps were filled. —AD

It is an excellent introduction to ideas that are invaluable and quite different from the way reality is commonly understood. —TS

The idea that "consciousness is all there is" seems much more real, practical, and truthful now. —SM

Great course! —EB

Very well done. Well presented. —AR

Food for thought on a very refined level. —anon

Just listening to Maharaja talk about consciousness every week gave me an experience of witnessing my activity during the day on a new level. —JK

Thank you, Maharaja, for bringing out new reflections on Maharishi's knowledge. —EM
