Leaders of the Global Mother Divine Organization* (GMDO) continued their recent series of inspiring reports** from countries around the world, highlighting the past year's achievements in Africa as well as plans and resolutions for the coming year.

GMDO has had the joy of establishing the organization in countries where the Transcendental Meditation Programme has not been offered in the past, including several countries in Africa.

In the West African country of Burkina Faso, the Global Mother Divine Organization organized the first introductory lecture on the Transcendental Meditation Programme ever held in the country. This resulted in 20 people learning the Transcendental Meditation Technique increasing the meditating population by nearly 800 per cent.

In April, two practitioners of Transcendental Meditation from Senegal and Burkina Faso were sponsored by GMDO to attend a 5-day conference on Consciousness-Based Education in Lome, Togo. The conference was organized by Raja Graham de Freitas, and Mother of the Domain Leanne de Freitas, in conjunction with West African Governors. The ladies are the first in their countries to apply for TTC.

The GMDO National Director in Ghana—the first lady Transcendental Meditation Teacher there—taught the technique to all the ladies in a factory in Accra, as well as to all the ladies and girls in an after-school programme. (read more)
