The Maharishi Technology of the Unified Field is different from subjective approaches in the past, and must therefore be considered on separate grounds. It provides an effective, reliable method of opening the mind to an invariant and universal level of nature which is everywhere, and yet not ordinarily open to experience because the mind functions on more active levels. The Science of Creative Intelligence gives a new account of how complete knowledge is possible. When the mind becomes completely settled and still, according to this account, it gains the ability to perceive on the most refined levels of nature's functioning the all-pervading unified field where all laws reside in a collective totality. On this level of knowledge, there is no separation of knower from the known.
Nothing lies outside the range of the knower.
All laws of nature and everything in the universe can be known as intimately as one's own Self. Mind and body cease to be seen as separate realities. The unified field is a self-referral state of awareness that knows itself, and in knowing itself is the knower and the known, both together. On this account, there is no distinction between the knower and the reality that it knows. Since it is the Self that knows itself, there is nothing ultimately outside the consciousness of the knower, and there are therefore no limits on what can be known.
