AVERILL PARK, N.Y., Nov. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The American Meditation Institute's 4th Annual National Conscience Month Essay Contest will award a $2,000 scholarship for the best essay that clearly explains how the author used (or ignored) the wisdom of their brilliant Conscience in a decision-making process. This annual contest is open to all high school seniors throughout the United States, and the award is to be applied toward the student's higher education costs.
Students face remarkable pressure every day that is aggravated by the relentless onslaught of information from mobile devices, cable news, emails, texts, and social media feeds. As a result, they move and react at a faster pace than ever before, while their capacity to make discriminating choices remains elusive.
According to Leonard Perlmutter (Ram Lev), originator of National Conscience Month and author of the new book, YOUR CONSCIENCE, "At present there is no educational curriculum focused on teaching students exactly how the mind makes decisions, and how to use the Conscience as a practical resource in this process. This national essay contest for teenagers at a critical moment in their personal development, will establish an awareness of the positive value of regularly experimenting with using their Conscience as a trusted guide to know how to choose their thoughts, words, and actions."
High school seniors can enter the scholarship contest now, and submissions will be accepted through January 29, 2023. The contest winner will be announced the first week in February, 2023.
The mission of National Conscience Month is to foster a national conversation that inspires individuals of all ages and political affiliations, governments, school systems, faith leaders, non-profits, community organizations, corporations, believers, atheists, and agnostics across the world to experiment with using their Conscience in choosing their thoughts, words, and deeds. This month-long observance is the perfect time to clarify our individual and collective vision by using the Conscience as an inspired and trustworthy guide to making better decisions that can resolve all of life's challenges.
