We Will Create A Peaceful World
Within A Few Months
Groups of peace-creating Yogic Flyers
will promote coherent world consciousness
and end the destruction of life on earth
“The press will
soon report a new mood of peace
and freedom from fear throughout the world”
(May 3, 2004) His Holiness
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi proclaimed during an historic news conference last
week that large groups of peace-creating Yogic Flyers, now being
established throughout the world, will create peace on earth within a
few months. Maharishi said the Yogic Flyers will promote coherence in
world consciousness and change the trends of life from destruction to
peace.
“The world must change—it
cannot continue for long under the threat of fear and destruction,”
Maharishi said during his April 28 global news conference. “So remember
today’s date. Within a few months, the press will report a new mood of
peace and freedom from fear throughout the world as the coherence rises
in world consciousness.”
Maharishi’s news conference was
broadcast live to the press on all continents via global satellite and
Internet webcast from the Capital of the Global Country of World Peace
in Meru, Holland. Maharishi will hold his next news conferences on May 5
and 6 (see page 3 for details).
Maharishi’s proclamation came
only one week after he declared it was “now or never” to save the world.
Immediately following Maharishi’s call for action, leaders of his Global
Country of World Peace began assembling groups of Yogic Flyers to create
coherence and order in the disorderly atmosphere of the world.
Maharishi emphasized that the
global transformation will be peaceful: “We are not waging a war against
darkness—we are peacefully bringing the light. Then all the difficulties
created by darkness will simply vanish.”
Yogic Flyers will
create peace from the Unified Field
Maharishi explained that the
peace-creating groups will promote a coherent influence from the most
basic level of life. “The Yogic Flyers will enliven the Unified
Field—the self-referral field of consciousness within everyone,”
Maharishi said. “This is the field of total Natural Law—the light of
God—which promotes the evolution of the universe as a whole while
simultaneously promoting the evolution of everyone and everything in the
universe, from point to infinity.”

Governments invited
to create coherent national consciousness
Maharishi said that every
government is invited to utilize the knowledge and programs of the
Global Country of World Peace to create coherent national consciousness
and rise to invincibility, self-sufficiency, and affluence.
However, Maharishi emphasized,
the time to talk about peace is over—now is the time to take action and
create peace within a few months. For this, the Global Country of
World Peace is quickly establishing large groups of Yogic Flyers
throughout the world. The Global Country of World Peace is also
establishing Peace Palaces and Vedic universities, colleges, and schools
in every major city to offer the total knowledge of Natural Law and
raise the whole population to enlightenment. In India, the group of
Yogic Flyers will also be expert in the recitation of Vedic sounds—the
sounds of the transcendental field of total Natural Law within the Self
of everyone. “Both Yogic Flying and Vedic recitations will create
coherence and harmony in world consciousness,” Maharishi said.
Global Country of
World Peace will fulfil the goal of globalization
Maharishi also said that the
Global Country of World Peace will fulfil the goal of globalization.
“Now is the time when the spirit of globalization is rising in the
world—along with the hope that there will be one global administration
that can harmonize the differences that dominate relationships between
nations,” Maharishi said. “The world is fortunate to have the Global
Country of World Peace to fulfill this desire. The Global Country of
World Peace will administer society from the level of the Unified
Field—the field of consciousness—where differences are not important.”
It won’t take long
to create a peaceful world
Maharishi concluded by again
emphasizing it won’t take long to create a peaceful world. “Through the
total knowledge of Natural Law, we are going to enlighten the world in
the same way as one little candle light is enough to eliminate the
darkness. Then all the hardships of darkness will simply disappear. It
won’t take much time—just a few months,” Maharishi said. |

Global Country of World Peace
will fulfil the spirit of globalization
Every country will
enjoy the strength,
affluence, and intelligence of all other nations
“The power of
Natural Law is far greater
than the power of missiles to destroy”
(May 8, 2004) His Holiness
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi declared that his Global Country of World Peace
will bring fulfilment to the spirit of globalization that is rising in
the world by providing global administration from the level of the
Unified Field, which administers the infinite diversity of the universe
with perfect order. As a result, Maharishi said, the world will grow in
coherence, and every nation will enjoy the strength, affluence, and
intelligence of all other nations.
At the same time, Maharishi
issued a strong rebuke of U.S. President George W. Bush as a madman
whose brain has been spoiled by drugs, and who is bringing shame to
America. Maharishi urged the President to immediately stop his
destructive policies—and called on the President’s friends to save him
from the path of his own destruction. “There is a limit to which Natural
Law can bear the cruelty of anyone or any nation,” Maharishi said.
“America is a cruel nation; England is a cruel nation. As a friend, I am
advising these countries to save themselves from destruction.”
Maharishi’s message to the
world press came during his global news conference on May 5, which was
broadcast live via global satellite and Internet webcast from the
Capital of the Global Country of World Peace in Meru, Holland.
His Majesty Raja
Nader Raam is going to materialize
the globalization of all nations
Maharishi
said that the worldwide move towards globalization, highlighted by the
recent expansion of the European Union, is the expression of the light
of total Natural Law—the light of God—which promotes the evolution of
everyone and everything, from point to infinity, in the ever-expanding
universe. “This is the government of the universe—the field of
consciousness within the Self of everyone—and it is from this level that
His Majesty Raja Nader Raam, the First Ruler of the Global Country of
World Peace, is going to materialize the globalization of all nations,”
Maharishi said.
Maharishi said His Majesty Raja
Raam’s scientific discovery, which revealed that the entire physical
universe is just the expression of consciousness, is the basis for ideal
administration. “Consciousness is the one uniform level of intelligence
which creates and nourishes all diversity in a unified manner. Only
administration from this unified field is worthy of an enlightened
society,” Maharishi said.

Yogic Flying and
Yagyas to create coherent world consciousness
Maharishi explained that the
Global Country of World Peace will fulfil the ideal of globalization
through Vedic performances by establishing large groups of Yogic Flyers
around the globe who will create coherent world consciousness—the basis
of permanent peace on earth. And in India, Maharishi said, the Yogic
Flyers will also utilize Yagyas—Vedic performances of Vedic
sounds that will bring the support of Natural Law to fulfil a particular
resolution. “We have resolved to create coherent world consciousness—and
we have the procedures and programs to fulfil our resolution and raise
the world to the peak of globalization, where every country will enjoy
the strength, affluence, and intelligence of all other countries,”
Maharishi said.
Leaders should know
that the power of Yagyas
is greater than the power of missiles
In response to a press
question, Maharishi issued a stern warning to government leaders who
possess weapons of destruction. “I am warning these mischiefmongers: The
power of their missiles is limited, but the power of total Natural Law
is omnipresent, omniscient, and almighty,” Maharishi said. “We are
raising the positive power of total Natural Law to create coherent world
consciousness.” Maharishi then repeated his warning to the leaders:
“Remember, the power of Yagyas is greater than the power of
missiles. This warning should be enough for the leaders to amend their
ways.”
Realizing the dream
of all ages—peace
Maharishi concluded with a
vision of a peaceful world coming soon. “The days of barbarism are
over,” Maharishi said. “Fortunately, with the blessings of the Vedic
tradition of masters, we have the science and technology of
consciousness to realize the dream of all ages—peace. It is just a
matter of gathering a few groups of a few thousand Yogic Flyers, and
soon we will have a peaceful world and a bright future for all mankind
for all generations to come.” |

Peace-creating experts from India
will promote a harmonious world
Today’s problem-ridden governments
are “a shame to human life”
(May 18, 2004) His Holiness
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi announced that large groups of peace-creating
experts from India are coming forward to create world peace—and within a
few months the first signs of peace will dawn on earth.
“Soon, everyone will see global
trends begin to change from murder and destruction to peace and the
blossoming of all good in life,” Maharishi said.
Maharish’s announcement came
during his address to the press attending a National Conference on Ideal
Education through Transcendental Meditation that was held in Washington,
D.C., on May 12. Nearly 300 top education, government, and health
leaders attended the conference. Maharishi spoke live via satellite and
Internet webcast from the Capital of the Global Country of World Peace
in Meru, Holland. Maharishi’s next global news conferences will be held
on May 19 and 20.
Creating peace without
waiting for support from governments or the rich
Maharishi announced that he is
creating a peaceful world without waiting for help from governments,
which he dismissed as a “shame to human life” because they pay and feed
young people to fight and die in another country while the leaders
remain at home. “It is a cruelty against the nation,” Maharishi said.
Maharishi also said he has
launched action to create peace without waiting for the support of
America’s rich. Following the attacks of September 11, 2001, Maharishi
had implored the rich to establish a $1 billion endowment to fund a
permanent peace-creating group in India. Instead, the rich chose to keep
their money in the bank. “Peace-creating experts from the poor Vedic
families of India are coming forward to create peace for the rich
Americans who have become fond of destruction,” Maharishi said.
“Fortunately, within a few months there will be a discernible effect of
peace in the world that both rich and poor will enjoy.”
The peace-creating experts will
practice Vedic technologies of consciousness, including Transcendental
Meditation and Yogic Flying, to quietly promote world peace. Extensive
scientific research has found that group practice of these technologies
creates coherence in collective consciousness, reducing negative trends,
such as crime, violence and conflict, while promoting positive social
and economic tendencies throughout society. In addition, the experts
will create coherent world consciousness through the recitation of Vedic
sounds—the sounds of the Unified Field, which administers the infinite
diversity of the universe with perfect order.

Proper education is the basis of permanent world peace
In response to a press question, Maharishi said
that proper education is the basis of permanent world peace. “All
problems, all diseases, and all failures in life have their basis in
inadequate education—in a lack of total knowledge,” Maharishi said.
“Today’s education is so isolated—either you study physics or
engineering or something else—but such isolated study will never bring
satisfaction. Only the experience and understanding of total
knowledge—the Unified Field—will satisfy you. Unless everyone has the
experience of total knowledge within his own Self, stress and strain and
problems and sickness in the individual and society will always
continue.”
Establishing Peace
Palaces with Vedic universities,
colleges, and schools in every major city
To deliver total knowledge to the whole
population, Maharishi said that his Peace Governments in every country
are establishing Peace Palaces with Vedic universities, colleges, and
schools in every major city throughout the world. Students will learn
Transcendental Meditation to gain direct experience of total Natural Law
within their own self-referral consciousness and will also gain the
intellectual understanding of this field of totality. “Education from
the level of total knowledge will create an ideal society and a peaceful
world—because everything is possible through proper education,”
Maharishi said.
The dark ages are over—
the reign of light is being established
Maharishi concluded by saying that with large
groups of peace-creating experts being established in India and around
the globe, and with Vedic education soon to be offered to students in
every country, the dark ages of a cruel world are over. “From the dark
ages of an indecent civilization, we are establishing the reign of the
light—the reign of the light of total Natural Law, the light of God—so
that everyone will live fulfillment in life, generation after
generation,” Maharishi said.

Vedic education will
create a utopian civilization
Vedic universities, colleges, and schools are
being established in every country to create
enlightened people who won’t make mistakes
Today’s
education destroys the cosmic genius
within every student
(May 25, 2004) His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh
Yogi proclaimed that mankind’s dream of a utopian civilization can now
be fulfilled through Vedic education, which develops the full creative
potential of every individual for a peaceful, prosperous world. To
realize this age-old ideal, Maharishi said, Vedic universities,
colleges, and schools are now being established in every major city in
the world to offer total knowledge of Natural Law to all people. Then,
everyone will rise to enlightenment, no one will make mistakes, and
everyone will enjoy increasing intelligence, energy, and success in
life.
“In today’s world of ignorance,
fulfilling this utopian dream sounds impossible,” Maharishi said. “But
the knowledge is now available to achieve it. This is what we have been
telling the world week after week, year after year: It is simple to
create a beautiful new civilization.”
Book knowledge
will never bring satisfaction to anyone
Maharishi declared that while all
parents want to give their children the best possible education, such
education has not been available for anyone—until now. “Knowledge only
came from books,” Maharishi said. “If someone has a Ph.D., M.A., or
B.A., you can see that he is an intelligent man—but he is only
intelligent in his restricted field of knowledge. There are innumerable
fields of life that he doesn’t know anything about. That is why book
learning will never bring satisfaction to anyone. It is time for
knowledge to be complete—it is time for education to be complete.”
Total knowledge
is available to every human being
Maharishi said that complete
knowledge is now available through Vedic education. “Total knowledge of
Natural Law, which administers the universe with perfect order, is
available to every human being on the level of his own self-referral
consciousness,” Maharishi said. “Vedic education provides the direct
experience and intellectual understanding of this infinite, eternal,
unbounded, transcendental field of life. Only total knowledge of this
field will bring satisfaction to the people.”

Great interest
from government and education leaders
in Maharishi’s approach to education
During the news conference, His
Excellency Dr. Bevan Morris, Minister of Enlightenment of the Global
Country of World Peace and President of Maharishi University of
Management in Fairfield, Iowa, reported great interest among government
and education leaders in Maharishi’s approach to education. Dr. Morris
said that 250 educators recently attended a national conference in
Washington, D.C., on the use of Transcendental Meditation to promote
ideal education—and more than 60 schools and youth organizations in the
Washington area alone have expressed a desire to offer Maharishi’s
approach to their students.
In response, Maharishi offered to
hold a special training course in total knowledge for all teachers—and
he called on university and school administrators to send as many
teachers as possible as soon as possible to the course.
Total knowledge
is gained through analysis and synthesis
Maharishi explained to the
educators that total knowledge will be gained through two processes:
analysis and synthesis. “First, you
give the student the unity of total knowledge, and then through analysis
this unity is elaborated and unfolded until all fields of knowledge are
brought to the student’s awareness,” Maharishi said. “Once total
knowledge is fully expanded, it is made unified and holistic again
through the process of synthesis. In this way, every student will gain
knowledge of the ultimate reality. He will
enjoy the support of total
Natural Law so that his life is always evolutionary—always lived with
more intelligence, more energy, and greater success in life.”
Maharishi emphasized that such
training in total knowledge is a requirement for every
educational institution. “Harvard, Yale, and all other universities
simply do not know where total knowledge is located—nor do they know how
to awaken it within each student’s awareness. These universities must
learn something new—they must learn something that they do not know
today in order to lead the young to maturity tomorrow,” Maharishi said.
The gift of
total knowledge from the tradition of Vedic masters
Maharishi concluded by saying
that total knowledge should not be thought of in terms of any particular
country, such as India, America, England, Australia, etc. Rather, total
knowledge should be thought of in terms of the unlimited potential of
human life. “The possibilities for human life are cosmic,” Maharishi
said. “Fortunately, with this gift of total knowledge from the tradition
of Vedic masters, we are opening Vedic universities, colleges, and
schools to take human life out of chaos and problems. We are training
people of all ages—students, working adults, and retired people—to
become guiding lights of enlightenment for all people in every country,
generation after generation.” |

There is no need to suffer in life
the ocean of bliss is within everyone
Vedic education will unfold the infinite
creative potential within every individual
to create a peaceful, prosperous world
The world will take a definite turn
towards peace within a few months
(June 1, 2004) His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh
Yogi proclaimed to a world gripped by chaos and fear that an ocean of
bliss and peace lies within every individual born on earth, and that
through the Vedic approach
to education
everyone can unfold his own inner infinite
creative potential to end suffering, rise to enlightenment, and promote
a peaceful, prosperous world.
Maharishi also repeated his declaration that
the world will take a definite turn towards peace within a few months
due to the coherent influence of his peace-creating groups, which are
now being established in India and around the globe. “Forget about the
past,” Maharishi said. “The dark ages of continuous warfare are coming
to an end. It doesn’t matter how long a hall has been in darkness
because with one little candle light the darkness will disappear.”
Maharishi’s proclamation is
based on 50 years of experience
and extensive scientific research
Maharishi emphasized that his proclamation of a
better world is not based on empty hopes but rather on 50 years of
experience in bringing enlightenment to millions of people worldwide
through his Vedic technologies of consciousness, including
Transcendental Meditation—and on the results of more than 600 scientific
studies conducted on these technologies in 210 independent universities
and research institutions in 33 countries over the past 35 years.

Establishing
Vedic universities, colleges, and schools in every city
to deliver total knowledge to the whole population
Maharishi announced that “a great
gift of enlightenment and peace” awaits mankind through the total
knowledge of Natural Law, which administers the universe with perfect
order. That is why, Maharishi said, Vedic universities, colleges, and
schools are being established in every major city throughout the world.
Maharishi said these educational institutions will deliver total
knowledge to all the people—students, working adults, and retired
people—to unfold the tremendous capabilities within everyone’s own inner
Being.
In this way, Maharishi said, the
Vedic universities will fulfill the ideal of a true university by
providing students with unified knowledge and not just the isolated
knowledge of physics, chemistry, mathematics, etc., offered by all other
universities. “A true ‘uni-versity’ should provide a unified basis to
the diversity of knowledge,” Maharishi said. “But no educational
organization today is worthy of that name. Instead, universities pride
themselves on their big libraries and their ability to offer all
knowledge in one campus. But who wrote those books? Illiterates—people
half educated in the total knowledge of Natural Law.”
In contrast, Maharishi said,
Vedic universities will provide all knowledge in one brain. In
this way, “Vedic education will raise the whole population to the
supreme level of human development—Unity consciousness—and create
prevention-oriented, problem-free administration in every nation and
permanent peace in the world,” Maharishi said.
Occupation-based education is slave-based education
Maharishi also dismissed today’s
education as “occupation based” because it trains people to work at a
job eight hours a day to make a living—but fails to develop their inner
infinite creative potential. “Eight hours a day of work is for slaves,”
Maharishi said. “Be a master of your own destiny through Vedic
education. Practice Transcendental Meditation and Yogic Flying several
hours in the morning and evening to befriend Natural Law. Then you will
be soaked in the infinite energy and intelligence of the Unified
Field—and then you will be able to achieve all that you want to achieve
in life.”
“Through the
blessings of the Vedic tradition of masters,
all mankind will enjoy enlightenment and peace”
Maharishi concluded by
emphasizing that every individual must take responsibility for creating
permanent world peace by rising to enlightenment. “Every individual has
to decide what he will do to create peace. But he should not to look to
the skies for answers—he should become enlightened,” Maharishi said.
“Fortunately, enlightenment is going to become the fashion of the coming
times; the barbarism in today’s world is not going to last much longer.
Through the blessings of the Vedic tradition of masters, all mankind
will enjoy enlightenment and peace in the light of Vedic wisdom—now and
for all generations to come.” |
