WHAT IS WORLD MEDITATION LEAGUE?
MEDITATE, TRANSFORM, THRIVE
Quantified Meditation
The World Meditation League (WML) was created with the purpose of identifying impactful meditation practices with tools of Quantified Meditation and developing scientifically established benchmarks.
Measuring and Tracking Meditation Performance
To empower individuals on their meditation journey, the World Meditation League equips them with tools of advanced brain imaging technology, brain-computer-interfaces to measure, track and visualize performance in real-time.
Uniting Meditators and Scientific Researchers
Bring together meditators and leading researchers from around the world onto one platform of collaboration to advance the Science of Meditation.
Winning Without Moving™
Winning Without Moving™ is the WML’s signature framework – pioneering a new era where meditation becomes a mainstream professional pursuit. It will be transforming meditation into a high-performance discipline, setting the momentum for creation of a rare sport of mind, and paving the way to professionalise meditation as a mainstream occupation, thereby beginning the new era of meditation as a quantifiable and scientifically observable practice. The first of its kind, it elevates the global meditating community into a prominent and financially viable eco-system, transforming meditation into a lucrative profession centered around the practice. Through championship events that offer a global platform for meditators, we showcase the benefits of meditation to wide public audiences. Awards and recognitions, coupled with financial rewards, celebrate the most valuable of human experiences. This is just the beginning of WML.
Developing the Future of Human Experience
Create an all new and highly valuable asset class and thriving economy around meditation, self-cognitive training and establishing these practices as universally embraced lifelong pillars of human development.
Celebrating the Essence of Being Human
Popularize and practice deep self-immersion to reach and unleash the inner power, as the most precious asset of future generations.

FOUNDER'S
NOTE
On World Meditation League launching a Professional Meditation Movement
January 2024
Erkin Bek,
Founder & President,
World Meditation League
Dear Friends, Let’s take a moment to reflect on the wonderful journey that brings us here today. Have you ever sensed an invaluable treasure within, surpassing the significance of work or productivity? As we step into this new year, I’m delighted to share a revelation - the untapped richness within us. Imagine a moment in nature, where the beauty of existence surrounds you. I had many such moments of meditating in beautiful nature’s surroundings, and often times at some point I would have to contemplate on the prospect of going to an office for productivity-driven, machine-like tasks. Yet, I recognized that the forest moment and deep self-immersion were the most valuable to me as a human being. It became clear to me that these moments, often distracted or overshadowed by the mundane demands of daily life, should define our existence. This realization struck me that diving into our inner world should evolve into a valuable human profession, a pursuit of utmost significance. Fortunately, our ancestors left us a marvelous gift - meditation, a practice enabling a profound exploration of ourselves. Our meditation organization All Here has launched a unique collaboration with S-VYASA in Bengaluru and Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne into meditation research, which has led us on a quest to detect and benchmark some of the incredible benefits of the practice. This exploration led to the creation of the World Meditation League (WML), a pioneering movement aimed at transforming meditation into a mainstream and professional sport-like occupation. WML aspires to: 1. Identify the most effective meditation styles. 2. Unite meditators and scientists. 3. Popularize the wide-ranging benefits globally. 4. Establish a lucrative profession centered around the practice. 5. Celebrate the essence of what it means to be human. I envision the evolution of WML into a futuristic platform where meditation becomes a rare sport of minds — an exchange of subtle human experiences deeply connected with science. Our vision is to begin a new era of professional meditation where meditation becomes mainstream, a cornerstone of our daily lives. I extend an invitation to each of you to join us in this transformative journey - a journey not only of self-discovery, but also of shaping the future of human experience. Together, we can elevate the essence of being human to new heights.
