The private Maharishi School specializes in “consciousness-based education” for kindergarten through 12th grade.
Director Richard Beall said on school’s website that Winfrey spoke with students about her spiritual journey. He said the school will host a discussion Monday night about the visit.
Winfrey also visited a pizza shop, a cafe and a campus of Vedic scholars.A message left Saturday for Winfrey’s production company wasn’t immediately returned. (source)
