“The whole of life in its multitudinous diversity is nothing but the fullness of love, bliss and contentment, eternal and absolute.”

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

Who We Are

Founded in 2008, the Maharishi Foundation for World Peace Cambodia (MFWPC) is a non-governmental, non-religious, and non-profit educational foundation dedicated to uplifting the life of every citizen of Cambodia. Our mission is to promote peace, health, prosperity, and the awakening of higher consciousness throughout the nation.

MFWPC is inspired by the vision and teachings of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, whose lifelong work demonstrated that true peace can only be established on the firm foundation of consciousness. By introducing scientifically validated programs such as Transcendental Meditation (TM) and Consciousness-Based Education, the Foundation addresses the root causes of stress, conflict, and suffering—while fostering individual well-being, creativity, and resilience.

Building on the successful legacy of Maharishi Vedic University (1993–2008), where hundreds of students practiced TM and the TM-Sidhi program daily, MFWPC continues to advance initiatives that combine ancient Vedic knowledge with modern science. Our programs have been shown to improve academic performance, reduce crime and violence, strengthen national coherence, and promote harmony at every level of society.

Today, MFWPC partners with ministries, schools, universities, and community organizations across Cambodia. Together, we are working to create a future where every individual can unfold their full potential—and where Cambodia stands as a shining example of peace, prosperity, and invincibility in the heart of Asia.

Our Vision

We envision a Cambodia where every individual has the opportunity to experience the full blossoming of their inner potential, living in harmony with themselves and with society. When consciousness is nurtured at its deepest level, people naturally grow in peace, creativity, resilience, and wisdom. A nation where individuals thrive in this way becomes a nation that is peaceful, prosperous, and enlightened. This is the guiding vision of the Maharishi Foundation for World Peace Cambodia.

By 2030, MFWPC is committed to extending its reach into every province, every school, and every community across Cambodia. Our goal is to ensure that children, students, teachers, professionals, and families everywhere can benefit from the life-transforming programs of Consciousness-Based Education and Transcendental Meditation. In this way, the rising coherence and harmony in individual lives will ripple outward, uplifting society as a whole.

  • Maharishi’s Vedic Science
    At the foundation of these initiatives lies Maharishi’s Vedic Science, a complete body of knowledge that reveals the principles governing life in harmony with natural law. By bringing thought and action into alignment with natural law, this knowledge fosters error-free living and promotes progress in all areas of life—personal, social, and national. When individuals act in tune with natural law, society naturally flourishes, and a culture of peace, health, and invincibility arises.

Our Mission

The Application of the Technology

Consciousness-Based Education
MFWPC integrates the discoveries of modern science with the timeless wisdom of Vedic knowledge to create an educational system that develops the whole person. This approach cultivates both sharp intelligence and a compassionate heart, preparing students for a balanced, innovative, and purposeful future. By systematically unfolding the full potential of the mind, it helps young people become leaders of character, creativity, and vision—equipped to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

Personal and Collective Benefits
Through the sustained practice of these technologies of consciousness, individuals experience greater happiness, inner calm, vitality, and resilience. Scientific research has consistently shown that regular practice of TM and its advanced techniques not only reduces stress and anxiety but also enhances cognitive functioning and emotional balance. On the collective level, society itself benefits from the growth of coherence and positivity in collective consciousness, creating the conditions for peace, cooperation, and prosperity.

Our Impact

MFWPC’s initiatives are rooted in scientific research and in a proven track record within Cambodia.

  • Scientific Validation Worldwide: More than 45 peer-reviewed studies demonstrate that when large groups practice meditation together, measurable reductions occur in crime, conflict, and social stress. At the same time, over 650 scientific studies confirm the personal benefits of Transcendental Meditation for improved health, higher academic performance, reduced anxiety and depression, and greater overall well-being.
  • A Proven History in Cambodia: From 1993 to 2008, Maharishi Vedic University hosted over 550 students who practiced TM and the TM-Sidhi program twice daily. Research during this period documented significant social benefits, including reductions in violence and greater national harmony. Building on this foundation, MFWPC continues to collaborate with ministries, schools, and universities to bring these programs to a new generation.
  • Expanding Partnerships: Today, MFWPC is deepening collaborations with ministries, educational institutions, and community organizations across the Kingdom. These partnerships allow us to integrate Consciousness-Based Education into classrooms, provide stress-reduction programs in the workplace, and establish coherence-creating groups to strengthen peace and unity nationwide.

MFWPC is the only official organisation authorised to offer these programmes in Cambodia.
The Foundation seeks to raise awareness of the profound benefits of its programmes across Cambodian society, making them widely available to students, educators, healthcare professionals, government agencies, and the general public.

Fundraising, through appeals for donations and partnerships, is undertaken by the Foundation to enable the wider implementation of Maharishi’s programmes, especially in areas of greatest social need. The Foundation also seeks to provide scholarships and support for individuals of low income to ensure inclusivity and equal opportunity.
