Welcome | From our team at MGAC
Welcome to the Maharshi Global Archives & Collections.
Here, the history, teachings, and global legacy of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi are carefully preserved and
thoughtfully shared. Whether you are discovering Maharishi for the first time or returning to explore more deeply, we invite you to begin your journey here.                     Jai Guru Dev ~Your friends at Archives

Suppose you were to ask...

Where are Maharishi’s handwritten notes from his commentary on the Brahma Sutra?

Where can I find the original Torch Divine pamphlet?

Is there a copy of Maharishi’s 1965 letter to the saints of the Himalayas?

Saints of the Himalayas in English
Saints of the Himalayas in Devanagari

There is a rich history of Maharishi’s work around the world, but it’s almost impossible to find answers to questions like the ones above. We have created Maharishi Global Archives & Collections (MGAC) to have the answers be easy and enjoyable to find.

Our goal is to both preserve the original hard copies of Maharishi’s work and to create a straightforward and elegant digital archive for everyone to use. We already have

  • over 100,000 documents and manuscripts;

  • 2000 hours of audio and video recordings of Maharishi;

  • 12000 audio and video recordings from the TM Movement's events and courses;

  • donations of the private collections from Jerry and Debby Jarvis, Larry Domash, and others around the world.
     

Our team is hard at work to add our collections to the digital archive​
