A CENTER OF PEACE ON EARTH LIKE AN OASIS IN THE DESERT
The Global Women’s Center for Peace and Enlightenment is being built in Livingston Manor, New York, to offer women and girls all the knowledge and experience of enlightenment in one comfortable, easily accessible place.
At the heart of the Center is the Mother Divine Program℠, a group of women who practice Transcendental Meditation® and its advanced programs as their full-time profession, radiating a powerful effect of peace and enlightenment, and assuring that Mother will always be at home in our world.
The third stage* of creating the Global Women’s Center will be the building of a new residence that will allow 48 Mother Divine to live and meditate under one roof. The existing beautiful Peace Palaces on the property will, for now, continue to house about 15 Mother Divine. Additional new, Maharishi Vastu housing will be built as soon as possible for our retreats, courses for women, and educational programs. Read More

A profound influence of peace for the world
The first time that I came to a course with Mother Divine, as soon as I stepped out of my car, I could feel in every cell of my body a very palpable, sublime sweetness that was in the air. I had never felt anything like that before. That weekend, and every weekend course since, has been filled with peace and nourishment that no other environment has given me.—S.H., New York
THE WHOLE DESERT IS GOING TO BE TRANSFORMED

As time goes on, our efforts will be more and more fruitful to have larger numbers of Mother Divine. They will be the centers of peace on earth, like oases in the desert. Then the whole desert is going to be transformed into very fertile, very fruitful land.—Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, 31 August 2003
