The 9th International Ayurveda Congress will bring experts from all over the world to present the latest knowledge that has led to the resurgence of Ayurveda and its acceptance in modern Integrative Medicine.

The Congress will be organised and hosted by Maharishi International University (MIU), Fairfield, Iowa, USA, and co-organised by the All-India Ayurvedic Congress, New Delhi, India; the International Academy of Ayurved, Pune, India; and the International Maharishi AyurVeda Foundation, The Netherlands.

The founder of MIU, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, was the most influential custodian of the Vedic tradition in modern times popularizing both Transcendental Meditation and Ayurveda in the West and integrating them into the modern scientific approach.

MIU is the largest provider of university accredited Ayurveda degree programs in the US and offers the only ABOIM approved Integrative Medicine Fellowship for Medical Doctors that contains a special emphasis on Ayurveda.

We invite you to join us for a transforming experience at MIU – a university founded on the consciousness-based principles that:

• Knowledge is structured in consciousness.
• Education is fulfilled when the consciousness of the student is expanded.
• The fundamental of healthcare is to enliven the inner intelligence at the basis of the healing response.
