TM is a scientific technique which brings the mind to its most subtle level. It allows the mind to transcend faster and helps us understand Buddhist teachings from a deeper level.Atmane Kouider, PhD, Practicing Muslim, Algiers, Algeria I come from a Muslim family and four generations in our home have been practicing the TM technique along with doing our Muslim rituals every day. I would like to say that not only does TM not conflict with our beliefs but, in fact, we found it to strengthen our faith.Among all the people to whom I taught the TM technique, I have never heard of anyone who gave up Islamic practice after learning TM; but, I have heard of many individuals, born Muslim, who adopted Islamic practice after learning the TM program.God states in His Holy Qur%u2019an: %u201cVerily never will Allah change the condition of a people until they change that which is in their own self.%u201d Here, in TM, is a scientifically validated program for changing our inner condition to harmony and all good. Let us adopt it to improve that which is in our own self and deserve God%u2019s Mercy and Grace for ourselves and every living being.
