About wcsc

The W.C.S.C. is the vehicle to teach the psychic and physical practices synthesized by Vethathiri Maharishi to achieve realization through introspection, purification and meditation. More detailed explanation of these is in the ensuing sections of this booklet. Anyone who dedicates his will and sets aside some time on a daily basis can maintain good health, happiness, prosperity and peace to the maximum possible extent. The individual’s peace brings harmony within the family, among relatives, friends and in the workplace. One can live a virtuous life of morality, duty and charity, without conflicts. This will lead to peace in society and even the whole world.

The human being is a wonderful species, evolved through millions of forms and intrinsically endowed with tremendous qualities and potentials. The physical body is fantastically sophisticated, with the capability of a vast spectrum of though and action. But at the same time, within each of us the characters of the past violent deeds done by animals are also accumulated and preserved intact. Every one of us has developed undue attachments to material wealth, fame, power and desire.

The practice and teachings of the WCSC are made so as to combine and integrate these three aims.

• For sensory enjoyments; proper training alone can curb the animalistic tendencies of aggression and selfishness.

• The WCSC is the vehicle to teach the psychic and physical practices synthesized by Vethathiri Maharishi to achieve realization through introspection, purification and meditation.
