At a Massachusetts Institute of Technology international symposium on the Science of Creative Intelligence in 1972, TM Founder Maharishi Mahesh Yogi described how the expansion of awareness that occurs during the practice of the TM technique produces broader comprehension, resulting in spontaneously right decision-making.
By 1972, Maharishi was world-renowned. His book the Science of Being and Art of Living was published in 1964, translated into 15 languages, and sold millions of copies. In 1967 Penguin published his Bhagavad-Gita: A New Translation and Commentary. Many scholars regard his interpretation of chapters 1–6 of the Indian text as one of the most influential in shaping spiritual thought and life.
In 1968 Maharishi began training thousands of teachers of the TM technique in order to make the program more widely available. He would train more than 40,000 TM teachers, who went on to establish TM Centers around the world and teach the technique to more than 10 million people.
From 1970 to 1973, some 10,000 people attended Maharishi’s symposia on the Science of Creative Intelligence, his modern interpretation of Vedic knowledge. During these university conferences, Maharishi spoke with the leading thinkers of the time, such as Hans Selye, Marshall McLuhan, and Jonas Salk.
