New Palestinian TM Centre ready for action!
I would like to start this update by letting you know how grateful I am for everyone’s generous support! We received donations of more than $10,500, and in the pictures below you can see the wonderful transformation into a brand-new TM Centre! I really feel fortunate that I was able to get this premium space at 40% lower rent and in a new building and with the first 6 months rent-free.
Please click to donate and help create an island of peace in a historically sensitive area of the world. Below: The building where the new TM centre is located.

Participate in helping Palestine renovate a locale for their new TM Centre!
A suitable place has been found at 40% lower rent and in a new building. However, the space requires finishing of the rough interior before moving in. The estimated cost is $12,800.
The building has a North and East entrance and luckily, we have 2 meditating architects helping with the floor plan and overseeing the renovation. We feel so fortunate for their volunteer support. This initial investment of $12,800 also includes 6 months free rent.
We are very excited about this possibility—but need your help. Please click to donate and help create an island of peace in a historically sensitive area of the world. Below: The building where the new TM centre will be and a shot of the large interior space which needs renovating. On the right a group of TM Friends celebrating.

TM activities and International Yoga Day in the countryside
We are continuing with our TM programme: teaching, advanced knowledge meetings, super-radiance time, as well as participating in the Consciousness Advisor Course.
Today we celebrated International Yoga Day by practicing our TM program in a nearby mountain area close to Ramallah. It was a great experience in nature, and everyone enjoyed it.

June 2022
Report from Basma Abu Sway – National Director of Palestine and ARO Ambassador
Large group meditation online: During the present time of turbulence in Palestine I invited all those practicing TM in Palestine for a large group meditation online in an effort to give some peace for ourselves and our country.
Interview: I announced in an interview with Palestinian media, a 50% grant to teach TM to Palestinian journalists who are traumatised by the death of their colleague, Shireen Abu Amleh and who are facing a lot of pressures, especially for the importance and scientifically proven influence of this technique in treating post-traumatic stress disorder.
We continue with initiations and are joining Dr. Tony Nader’s Consciousness Advisor Course. Mr. Roochnik, a US Governor, has been visiting us for a month and is one of our constant and loyal friends and supporters. He is here to give support teaching and checking and we are planning an upcoming residence course together.
World Peace Assembly: In April I had the chance to join the peace-creating group in Mamaia, Romania for almost 2 weeks. It was a joy to celebrate my birthday there. This was a much needed rich, inspiring, and empowering experience! Being and rounding with such a coherent and enlightened group from around the world was very special. I experienced a warm feeling of really living the “World is my family” as Maharishi said, feeling love, gratitude, and enjoying being in a safe, caring environment among loving people. This course provided me with the chance to exchange thoughts and learn from the experiences of other Governors, generating many inspiring ideas.
While there, I felt the urgent need to have peace-creating groups for the Middle East region, and I would like to call for a WPA for our region.
A powerful reminder: Back home after that empowering experience, I was inspired to re-connect with my contacts here in Palestine and remind them that life can be lived in happiness and peace. I contacted public and civil society organisations, such as the Bank of Palestine and Cairo Amman Bank, Palestinian Ministry of Social Development, private sector businesses, youth organisations, the Palestine Olympic committee, Expertise Forum, and finally the media. I invited all of them to a TM Intro. lecture and also to meet many of our TM Meditators who are enjoying TM’s many benefits in their personal life and at work.
Below we can see Basma and Mr. Roochnik and participants in TM activities in our center.
April-May 2022
Report from Basma Abu Sway – National Director of Palestine and ARO Ambassador
The Palestine TM programme with the support of the international TM organisation is committed to building a better future for Palestinian women, men, youth, and children.
We strive to create coherence and bring enlightenment hoping to promote justice and peace for all. Yet we are challenged every day to fulfil our commitment amid the ongoing situation.
We are hoping that with like-minded people and great hearts and souls, we can raise world consciousness so the world is a better place for everyone, always, but not selective as everyone in this world deserves to live in peace and to have balance and justice.
Together we aim for Maharishi’s Dawn of Enlightenment for the whole world!
CONNECTING ALL WORLD PEACE ASSEMBLIES FROM HEART TO HEART
MESSAGE FROM ROMANIA IN EASTERN EUROPE
Cornelia (from Germany) and Basma (from Palestine) and Mouin (from Lebanon) are at the WPA in Romania and say > Please remember Middle East!
LET’S ALL CONNECT: Message for compassionate coherence
Cornelia (ARO) and Basma would like to relay a special message to you.
“Every day we hear about the circumstances in Ukraine, but please let’s not forget that we are constantly facing such sad situations in many countries of the Middle East region.”
A brilliant circle of coherence
“Participating in this glorious WPA, we feel the warm-hearted atmosphere of our togetherness. This is because of the effects we create together during our programme. So please let us focus on how we can establish and connect with such a group in the Middle East soon to create a circle of coherence from eastern Europe to the neighbours within the Middle East – and back again to the whole world!
Yoga and Yagya – Vijayante Taram!”

Strategic planning and WPA’s
Basma Abu Sway – National Director for Palestine
- We organized a one-day strategic planning and brainstorming session in February to expand our program and to reach more people. Fourteen beautiful Meditators and Sidhas with very rich professional experiences and backgrounds participated actively with much devotion and interest to support the development and sustainability of our program. The idea was the importance of utilizing our extensive network of meditators and their resources. This session was facilitated by a meditator who works as a strategic planning freelance consultant. There were wonderful discussions on the constraints we face and opportunities, and at the end we developed recommendations for the coming two years with the aim of being more established and reaching our goal of an enlightened and invincible Palestine.
- We organized a two-day residence course with visiting TM teachers Shirley O’leary and Kevin Blair from Ireland. Ten Meditators and one Sidha attended. It was held in a very beautiful newly renovated hostel of the old city quarters of Dahrieh, south of the West Bank area, which gave a special atmosphere. It was a very blissful and satisfying experience for all the participants.
Testimonials
This is what Shirley wrote: “Our residence course in Ad-Dhahiriya was absolutely wonderful. The course participants were very happy. The meditations were deep and profound. That was the best part of the course. Also, Basma did a marvelous job doing asanas with the students every programme. They will have no problem continuing asanas at home should they wish. And I was really impressed to find that pranayama is always part of their home programme.
The location was unforgettable for all of us. Our accommodation, meeting rooms etc. were in the old city. You will see from the photos how beautiful, how ancient it is. We felt privileged to have such a special course venue that gave a sense of Palestine and the long history of its people. The Palestinian course participants loved being there and were delighted to share their heritage with us.
Last, but not least, the food was delicious. My strongest impression is of the meditators we met. They are so welcoming, so genuine. You feel part of a family. They have an innocence and huge appreciation of TM and the knowledge that comes with it. They are really loveable, bright, intelligent, creative, and very well educated.
I can only wish with all my heart for peace, harmony and enlightenment for these lovely people and their country. A big thank you to Basma for making it all happen! Jai Guru Dev.” – Shirley
Another testimony by Aisha Odeh, Meditator: “These were two beautiful days, full of sweet energy, something like a pure water in the bottom of a mountain. I personally feel as if this fountain is permanent. I will continue to drink from its pure and sweet water. How do we get these things? I don’t know! Still, I touch it consciously as I touch the fixed things around me. I feel with everyone here in the course as my own family that I belong to. Let this waterfall of light always flowing in our hearts.”
Another participant, Huda, wrote: “Thanks for giving me the chance to join and to experience such a blissful time, this was one of the most fabulous and comforting trips in a long time. You all gave me a positive and beautiful energy that I will keep for the rest of the year in my residence abroad away from the warmth of my homeland. Much Love to all of you.”
3. I joined the Global Women’s Organization for Transcendental Meditation for a special one-day course for Arabic-speaking women on the 19th of March 2022.
The theme was “The Joy of Maharishi Vedic Astrology” with Dr. Ann Crowell as the special honored guest. In addition, we are continuing with our other activities such as the weekly book club readings and discussion, weekly introductory lectures, frequent personal and group checking, reaching out to different organizations such as banks, youth organizations, community centers etc.
“My wish is that Palestine can soon have a beautiful Maharishi Peace Palace for everyone to come and learn TM.” —Basma

August 2021
Basma Abu Sway – National Director for Palestine
After a long absence due to injuries, I have returned to our TM centre, resuming what I like and enjoy the most: teaching TM and group meditations.
SOME LOVELY EXPERIENCES
Dr. Hanan, an educator, (2 years meditating) said: “I am grateful to this technique very much, it saved my life and helped me to get to know myself and appreciate it. Before learning TM, I rarely slept more than 2 hours a night for many years, and 72 hours after learning, I was able to sleep at least 6 hours a night. I believe that I am in my way to enlightenment. A lot of transformation is taking place in my life, and I am a much happier and satisfied person. I talk about my experience with TM to everyone, my friends and colleagues and encourage them to come to the centre and learn”.
Aysheh, a well-known and respected writer, with several international awards, learned TM about 5 years ago. “From the first moment that I leaned TM, I felt transformation and change to a great degree. Before that I was living a very difficult situation, almost “tragic”, and the moment I learned and started practicing, I left that almost depressive situation, and moved on to a new status. I can say that I am now active, writing again, doing creative work and enjoying a social life. I could say that all my life, since I was a child, I always searched for self-empowerment, internal peace and happiness”.
Amal learned TM about 4 years ago. She is very much into knowledge, has taken SCI and Total Knowledge courses and is joining the weekly Bhagavad-Gita course: “TM is a turning point in my life, I just enjoy my program and look forward to it. During meditation and afterwards I feel the flow of loving energy between and among those around me. I also enjoy the knowledge and find myself more and more into it. I look forward to the TM-Sidhi course. Hopefully we can have one soon in Palestine or the region”.
Noor, a young meditator who learned TM a year ago, has amazing and happy experiences: “I would like to say, as I always say to my friends, how much I am benefiting from TM, how beautiful it is. It brings much happiness to my life. I feel grace and the responsibility to tell everyone about it and to encourage them to learn. I really wish that everyone learns TM, it is a precious and blissful gift. I am a naturally happy person, and TM helps balancing my moods. It gives me a feeling of lightness as if I am flying”.
Ahmad, a young meditator who learned TM a year ago, said: “All I want to say is that I am grateful to you and to TM in every moment and in every meditation. I am very regular in my program and lately TM helped me a lot, as I feel that I might helped it (TM)”.
PLANS AND ACTIVITIES
Gaza Strip: There is interest in TM from the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip, but unfortunately due to travel restrictions they cannot attend our courses. We hope that in the future there will be possibilities to do so.
Referrals: Referrals continue to be the number one source of inspiration for people to start learning TM. Soon I will be teaching 5 people, all of them referred by meditating friends.
WPA with Mother Divine: By invitation from Mother Divine, through our dearest RR Nancy, and in coordination with Susan Hamza MoD, and Nada Haidar, Sidhi Administrator, we are organizing a WPA on the 6 & 7 of August for women from Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Arab Emirates, and other countries. Maharaja Dr. Tony Nader will be our special honoured guest speaker and will address the WPA in Arabic.
Courses and group meditation: We are enjoying presential and online group meditations, TM knowledge courses as organized by ICO, and weekly international knowledge meetings hosted by the Lebanese TM organization.
Guru Purnima And finally, we have enjoyed the Guru Purnima celebrations and have watched the International Symposium on the role of Consciousness in solving the World’s problems: Making life work for everyone.

Coherence amidst adversity
Dr. Basma Abu Sway – Ambassador and National Director of Palestine reports on TM activities
Taste of Utopia 2.0 stabilizes and sets the direction
Our TM group here joined the TOU event, although it came in the middle of an exceedingly difficult time, which made it a little challenging, transforming change into the path of enlightenment. We believe we are much closer than ever before in our recent history to achieving our full integrity as a society and nation.
Its effect will be different from 1.0 as it will contribute to a shift in awareness on a global level, and this will bring change and peace around the world.
Some testimonials:
Amal – a lady who learned TM around 4 years ago wrote:
‘I felt that the energy flowing through the meditation sessions had an impact on the collective consciousness, meaning that we would soon feel the change on a personal level. During and after meditation, I notice a flow of loving energy between those around me, and an energy of activity.’
‘Despite the current events in the Palestinian arena and the world, I have noticed a change in how we deal with events, even by our people in Gaza and Jerusalem, as they deal with these events as an approach to change and influence in the world instead of presenting themselves as victims. This in itself is a path of changing individual awareness.’
Hiba and Fairous, relatively new meditators working in the same organization said:
‘We have been going through a very difficult situation in our office in addition to the general situation in Palestine. So, I and my colleagues agreed to start practicing our TM program together in the office first thing in the morning. This was a very uplifting experience. Work after that seemed much easier.’

March 2020 Bob Roth in Ramallah
Two weeks ago, on the 5th of February, we had the honour of welcoming Bob Roth in Ramallah to give a talk to about 45 different audiences, many of them professionals. It was a great success! Dr Roth made the promise that he will help raise the funds for teaching TM to 1000 persons in Palestine.
January 2020
TM-initiations continuously increasing in Palestine. Read a report from National Director Basma Abu Sway
- First time teaching 20 persons who are employees at an IT company, between the age 23 to 40 and who are mostly young computer science Engineers, in addition to other administrative jobs. We hope more employees will join the training in 2020, as they are asking about it.
- New doors are opening in front of us, such as UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Work Agency). Some of the managers attended an earlier seminar with Raja Kingsley and Leslie, this stimulated the following:
- I gave an introductory talk to 25 social workers and mental health workers in Dec 2019. All of them signed up for the course. Now we wait for the training Unit at UNRWA to decide to contribute to the the training cost, if not we will offer special scholarships for those who are keen.
- We join the online group meditation twice daily since it started with Lebanon and other ME countries, in addition to joining the monthly ME Coherence days.
- Thanks dear Lenanon for your support
This picture shows Basma teaching in Palestine.
November 2019 A report from National Director Basma Abusway
- I gave an introductory lecture to around 400 high school students in one of the largest and most prestigious private school in Ramallah. I was invited to talk in the school weekly “knowledge meeting” as they call it. We are waiting for the school administration to discuss it further among themselves and to see the possibility of adopting TM into their school.
- Palestine is participating in the daily (twice a day) online group meditation with Lebanon.
- For the first time I had the chance to give the “Word of Wisdom” technique to 5 kids. This was much fun.
- Gaza Strip:
We participated in the international conference on “mental health without borders” which was held in Gaza strip. Mr. Kevin Blair represented Palestine in the conference by giving a presentation on TM in general in addition to presenting a study on TM for veterans with PTSD.
October 2018 Basma Abusway, National Director and TM teacher from Palestine, continues to teach ladies at Al Jalazoun refugee camp including some of the social workers. Many of the mothers had lost their children in the Middle East conflict. It was rewarding for Basma to see the mothers finally experience some relief, relaxation, and better rest at night.
