Mornington Meditation Retreat
Transcendental Meditation weekend courses are a great way to gain an even deeper level of rest, relaxation and rejuvenation. The Transcendental Meditation technique establishes a daily cycle of deep rest to support dynamic activity.
Weekend Residence Courses add a longer cycle of even deeper rest. Take a weekend to rejuvenate with meditation and the timeless knowledge of Natural Law - you’ll return home refreshed, full of energy, and ready to dive into activity.

Weekend Residence Courses
A Weekend Residence Course, (longer ones are held in Melbourne once a year, usually at the end of Dec) allows you to take extra time for deeper rest and clearer experiences of Transcendental Consciousness under the guidance of an experienced teacher of the Transcendental Meditation program.
The relaxing routine includes extended practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique, group discussions about experiences in meditation and activity, videotaped lectures by Maharishi on higher states of consciousness, and a chance to meet other meditators from your region.
Weekend Residence Courses are often held outside the city in a place of natural beauty and silence. We utilise a 5 star location nearby run by longterm meditators who can also provide delicious Ayurvedic meals. Plus a venue in Eltham in conjunction with other TM Centres. The course routine provides a profound rest for body and mind, which supports the release of accumulated stress and tension. Many meditators like to take time for a Residence Course, claiming that just one weekend of deep rest recharges their batteries and keeps them going strong for months.
They find such a meditation retreat improves their -life balance, improved relationships, increased vitality and enhanced their experience of personal development towards enlightenment.
"Just have simple awareness that Heaven is within. Develop that inner Awareness that is the root to create Heaven on Earth. Never cut your program. For every little section you take out of your program, you take an equal amount out of your happiness and success. It is bliss that will create Heaven On Earth. We have to be happy and thats all. No shrinking hearts. No shrinking of minds. Always fabulously open. Clear thinking and happy and pure heart give rise to good planning which nourishes any avenue of life and elimination of uncertainty. Just float in bliss and nature will take care of everything else. With Heaven on Earth, no one will be required to strain for living because life, its every step, will be lively in its full potential. Everyone will have more than enough of everything and will live 24 hours a day with full support of Natural Law." - Maharishi

It is a great delight to invite all the Meditators, Sidhas and Governors in Australia to come together, to be together and transcend together to create coherence for our own lives and for the world.
Maharishi visited Melbourne in March 1962 and as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations we would like to invite everyone to join us in honouring all those who have contributed to developing Australian National consciousness over the last 50 years. For example Athena who taught the first person TM in December 1961 and went on to teach 8500 people. We would like to hear from anyone who was there or has information about Maharishi's first visit.
The courses will be held in Vastu at Maharishi School in Melbourne with Accommodation at the University Mews apartments or Rygdes Hotel. All meeting/program rooms have air-conditioning. This year the Vedic experts will have time to provide all their programs including a TM-Sidhis refresher course/checking, Maharishi Vedic Vibration Technology and Advanced Techniques etc during the course. There may also be a possibility that a Maharishi Vaidya will be available during the course.

Here are some more comments from meditators about their experience on recent courses:
~~~~
The weekend residence course of almost three weeks ago seemed to come at exactly the right time for me. It has coincided with some pretty amazing, but challenging, opportunities coming up for me at work, for which a clear mind has been vital (it is hard to know whether the clear mind has brought the opportunities, or whether the opportunities were there and the clear mind has allowed me to make the most of them - I suspect it is a combination of both!). Thanks again for a great weekend.
~~~~
At the beginning of the weekend I was rushing to get there, and had a head full of thoughts about the week just passed. By the end of Sunday, I was feeling light, brilliant, simple, clear and irrepressibly joyful.
The accommodation was absolutely lovely. The hosts were also very obliging and sweet.
~~~~
I finished the weekend feeling calm, rested and ready to get back into things.
Going back to the real world and relatively high pressure job, I found that my ability to communicate and articulate clearly, confidently and calmly to clients and prospects increase dramatically,.. I end up with improved efficiency in everything I do, it feels great.
~~~~~
What is also great is that even though there is a relative structure to the way the course is run, each one is totally different. Its the mix of people and questions that dictate the flow of conversations and knowledge discussed. I have found over the last two courses totally different areas covered all of which have been very insightful and helpful towards gaining a deeper understanding on TM.
~~~~
I'm really looking forward to the next one. I had a wonderful weekend.
~~~~
I didn't really have any idea what to expect at my first residence weekend. The yoga and meditation nurtured body and soul, I found the group, dynamic and interesting, the talks enlightening and the venue spectacular. But best of all was getting a spring back in my step - it was literally like recharging my battery. Today I'm told my skin is glowing and of course I attribute that to a weekend of deep rest and relaxation.
~~~~
I really enjoyed the knowledge provided by the facilitators which gave me a deeper understanding of TM. After my second weekend course I had an "ahaa.." moment. TM and it's effect on me and others took on a new meaning.
The weekends leave me feeling profoundly rested, centred and grounded. There is a crispness and sharpness to my thoughts and I experience a greater perspective on life. Better rest than any holiday could ever give me.
The accommodation is relaxed and comfortable and the food is absolutely delicious!
~~~~~
The course was brilliant, thank you!

So, all the questions that people keep carrying in their minds, in their hearts - What is this? What is that? - These questions get sorted out even when one goes for a time, even a weekend course or a four day course. It's very, very vital."
