Maharishi Light Therapy with Gems® is a modality of Maharishi AyurVeda that functions at the junction where consciousness expresses itself as matter. It bathes specific areas of the body with soft, coherent light that passes through high-quality gemstones. The unique crystalline molecular structure, characteristic colour, and emitted light of each precious gemstone produce specific balancing and nourishing effects for the mind, body, and emotions.
Precious gems have long been used for their therapeutic qualities. The earliest and most systematic use of gemstones for health originated in Ayurveda, the traditional healthcare system of India. The Ayurvedic physician Charaka prescribed gems for prolonging lifespan and promoting happiness, fulfilment of desires, ideal health, and the development of higher states of consciousness.
The word Ayurveda means “science of life”. Although Ayurveda is the oldest continuously-practiced tradition of healthcare in the world, only fragments of the original knowledge survived the long passage of time.
During the 1980s, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, founder of the Transcendental Meditation technique, worked with traditional Ayurvedic physicians to restore the science of Ayurveda to its completeness, with consciousness as its foundation. He called this revival of knowledge Maharishi AyurVeda.
Today Maharishi Light Therapy with Gems (MLG) is an important modality of Maharishi AyurVeda. It is highly regarded for its ability to enliven the body’s inner intelligence and healing mechanisms to restore balance from within.
