...Samiti Samani: the assembly in union together.

This is how the Veda ends. The Veda describes the link between the individual and universal levels of life. "Samiti samani" explains that living in the enlightened assembly produces a quality of life that is even greater than that of individual enlightenment.

This is the joy of our family life. There are a lot of details: learning to play the piano, to play the guitar, to sing, to ride bicycles and pogo sticks. Successes at math, English, Science, tennis, baseball, Destination Imagination. New discoveries on the walk home. Each member adds another layer of fullness to our family life together.

It's all quite incredible. This link will take you to the K-12 school that our children attend. (It takes you out of this web site. You'll need to use your back button to return to here). It's quite a story of personal, academic, and athletic acheivement based on self-development through practice of the TM technique and integration of Vedic principles into education.
