His
Vedic Science and Technology, which unfolds the full potential of Natural
Law in human consciousness as the basis of improving all areas of life, is
regarded as the most effective programme of human resource development.
Maharishi's
Transcendental Meditation, which is the subjective technology of
Maharishi's Vedic Science of Consciousness, is the most widely practised
and extensively researched programme of self-development in the world.
His
technique of Transcendental Meditation is the most widely practised and
extensively researched programme of self-development in the world.
More
than 600 scientific research studies conducted during the past fifty-one
years at over 250 independent universities and research institutes in 33
countries have validated the profound benefits of Maharishi’s
Transcendental Meditation Programme for the individual and for every area
of society, including health, education, business, industry,
rehabilitation, defence, agriculture, and government.
Nearly five million people in all parts of the
world and from all walks of life practise Maharishi’s Transcendental
Meditation. 40,000 teachers of the Transcendental Meditation Programme
have been trained so far, and more are continuing to be trained.
In
addition, more than 100,000 people have learnt Maharishi’s Transcendental
Meditation Sidhi Programme and are daily practising Yogic Flying, an
advanced programme of Transcendental Meditation, which dramatically
enhances all the benefits brought about by Transcendental Meditation for
the individual, and creates a highly purifying influence in world
consciousness.
Maharishi has held hundreds of World Peace
Assemblies on all continents during the past fifty-one years with many
thousands of people coming together to create coherence in world
consciousness through the group practice of the Transcendental Meditation
and Transcendental Meditation Sidhi Programme (Yogic Flying
Programme).
In
1986, on the basis of the rising Maharishi Effect—coherence in world
consciousness resulting from his World Peace Assemblies—Maharishi
inaugurated his programme to create world peace by establishing a
permanent group of 7,000 Vedic Scientists in Maharishi Ved Vigyan Vishwa
Vidya Peetham, Maharishi Nagar, India, to create coherence in collective
consciousness on a permanent basis through the group practice of the
Transcendental Meditation and Transcendental Meditation Sidhi
Programme.
As a
result of the rising Maharishi Effect in world consciousness produced by
millions of people practising Transcendental Meditation throughout the
world, and through Maharishi’s World Peace and Invincibility Assemblies in
all parts of the world, world peace is rising to be a permanent
reality.
Over
the past fifty-one years Maharishi has established a worldwide
organization with more than 1,200 centres in 108 countries.
Hundreds of books have been published about
Maharishi’s teachings. These have been translated into many languages and
have been distributed globally.
Maharishi is
one of the most videotaped personalities in history. There are more than
15,000 hours of video and audio tape recordings of lectures in Maharishi’s
international film and tape library.
Maharishi has
completely restored the thousands-of-years-old scattered Vedic Literature
for the total significance of its theory and practice, and has organized
it in the form of a complete science of consciousness.
Transcendental
Meditation is the subjective technology of Maharishi’s Vedic Science of
Consciousness.
Maharishi’s
Vedic Science and Technology is a complete science and technology of
consciousness; it is the complete science and technology of life, capable
of raising all aspects of life to perfection.
The
practicality of creating the supreme quality of life on earth—Heaven on
Earth—through Maharishi’s Vedic Science and Technology has been amply
verified during the past fifty-one years by scientific research, which
documents the benefits in every aspect of life—physiology, psychology,
sociology, and ecology. It has also been substantially verified by
personal experience, and by the authenticity of the ancient, traditional
Vedic Literature.
The global
achievements of these fifty-one years, on the ground of tested knowledge,
prompted Maharishi to launch a global programme to create Heaven on
Earth—life according to Natural Law.
The Global
Reconstruction Programme for Permanent World Peace (http://www.globalreconstruction.org/)
calls for the reconstruction of the whole world, inner and outer, and has
been established to create life in accord with total Natural Law—Heaven on
Earth.
Maharishi’s knowledge, Maharishi’s Vedic Science and
Technology, Maharishi’s eternal Constitution of the Universe which is
present everywhere, and Maharishi’s simple approach for everyone to enjoy
life according to Natural Law are the foundation of Maharishi’s global
action to create Heaven on Earth and perpetuate it for all generations to
come.
The revival of Vedic Wisdom through Maharishi’s Vedic
Science and Technology and the establishment of Maharishi Vedic
University, Maharishi Vedic Medical University, and Maharishi University
of Management in many countries provide that perfect knowledge of Natural
Law which will forever continue guiding mankind on the path to
perfection—daily life in full accordance with Natural Law.
A review of all the scientific research on the
Transcendental Meditation and Transcendental Meditation Sidhi Programme
reveals that the sequential unfoldment of pure knowledge and its infinite
organizing power has brought about the experience of pure consciousness,
has given rise to higher states of consciousness in the individual, and
has purified world consciousness, as evidenced by the rising waves of
achievement of Maharishi’s Movement throughout the world over the past
fifty-one years.
Maharishi’s call to the governments of the world and his
offer of a practical formula for every government to come in alliance*
with Nature’s Government, to gain the support° of Nature’s Government, and
gain the ability to nourish everyone and satisfy everyone is so unique and
unprecedented in the thousands of years of struggling history of
governments that probably the political leadership of the world, working
under stress and strain, could not believe that the support of Nature
could be gained in a systematic, scientific manner by all.
Having realized that it is possible to free governments
from problems and develop in them the ability to prevent problems,
Maharishi decided to establish a Global Government‡ of Natural Law with
its seat in every country.
The effect of the Government of Natural Law will be to
raise the administration of existing governments through national law to
the dignity of Global Administration through Natural Law.
In the context of the Absolute Theory of Government it is
enough to mention the ideal‡‡ of government
available in the Global Government of Natural Law. However, it is
necessary to mention that the relationship‡‡‡ of
the government of every country with Maharishi’s Global Government of
Natural Law will be so elevating and nourishing to every government in the
world that every Head of State will enjoy the full support of Natural Law,
and his government will enjoy the ability to prevent problems and will
substantiate the new definition of government provided by Maharishi’s
Absolute Theory of Government.
Maharishi’s practical programme is to quietly‡‡‡‡ establish life according to Natural Law without
requiring change in any area of the existing administration, which is
based on the national constitution of the country.
This global initiative to irrevocably change the course of
time in favour of peace and happiness for all mankind places Maharishi on
a most supremely exalted level of rulership, which far surpasses the
wisdom or administrative skill of any sovereign ruler in the world that
history has ever recorded.
The establishment of Maharishi’s Global
Administration‡‡‡‡‡‡ through Natural Law, and
subsequently the Maharishi's establishment of the Global Country of World
Peace‡‡‡‡‡‡‡ on 7 October 2000, will lead the
administrative quality of every government in the direction of perfection
so that every government functions on a par with the absolute
administration of the universe, the Government of Nature, which is
universally nourishing to all life.
Rk Veda places this supreme skill of leadership in the
hands of Brahm, the Ultimate Reality:
Yatinam Brahma bhavati
sarathih (Rk Veda, 1.158.6)
Brahma, the total potential of
pure knowledge and its infinite organizing power—the lively Constitution
of the Universe, Natural Law—becomes the charioteer of all
activity.
Rk Veda assigns supreme rulership to that self-referral
quality of consciousness, the total potential of Natural
Law—Brahm.
The total potential of Natural Law conducts the activity
of those who have identified their in telligence with the infinite
organizing power of pure intelligence at the level of self-referral
consciousness.
Every custodian of Maharishi’s Absolute Theory of
Government will have access to this enormous intelligence and power in his
own self- referral consciousness—in his own Transcendental
Consciousness—in his own physiology.
Rk Veda, the Constitution of the Universe, will be
enlivened in the heart of everyone, and, through a group of Yogic Flyers,
an indomitable influence of harmony and peace will be generated in
national consciousness which will influence the whole collective
consciousness of the world. Indomitable Maharishi
Effect—positivity and harmony—will be maintained in world
consciousness, generation after generation.
One wonders whether there could be a greater ruling
intelligence than the one that is available in the world today in the form
of Maharishi, who is making life on earth heavenly, and who is making
Heaven on Earth a reality.
Maharishi attributes his achievements to Shri Guru Dev,
His Divinity Brahmanand Saraswati Maharaj, Jagatguru Bhagavan
Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, Badrikashram, Himalayas—most illustrious
embodiment of Vedic Wisdom in the eternal tradition of Vedic Masters.
During the past fifty-one years the purity of world
consciousness has been steadily rising; the light of pure knowledge has
been steadily rising; life according to Natural Law has been steadily
rising.
It is satisfying that with the blossoming of this Absolute
Theory of Government, the world is witnessing the signs of a new awakening
in every field in the direction of fulfilment.
Now is the time for the world to witness the full glory of
life according to Natural Law—to experience the full dignity of life in
peace, prosperity, and happiness, with enlightenment and fulfilment in
daily life.
This is Maharishi in the world today, a quiet guardian of
all nations. Through his brilliance in the field of knowledge and
administration, every government now has the opportunity to actualize the
supreme purpose of government.

‡ In 1976
Maharishi inaugurated the World Government of the Age of the
Enlightenment. Maharishi’s Administration through Natural Law—Global
Raam Raj—celebrated on 12 January 1993, developed its organizational
structure in 1996, on Guru Purnima Day, when Maharishi established
Global Administration through Natural Law, materializing the concept
of Maharishi’s World Government of the Age of Enlightenment.
‡‡ This is
the ideal of the Natural Law Party in sixty countries.
‡‡‡ Every
national flag will fly with the cosmic flag of Maharishi’s Global
Government of Natural Law.
‡‡‡‡ Maharishi
realized the intensity of ignorance prevailing in the political
leadership of the world. In his desperate mood to save the world
from suffering, he finally decided to produce the effect
irrespective of governments. He decided that governments,
functioning according to man-made constitutions, completely ignorant
of the eternal Constitution of Natural Law, are not able to
understand the proposals, plans, and programmes to create perfect
administration through the support of Natural Law. He decided to
take a self-sufficient path that would not in any way depend on
governments.
Maharishi decided to create a Global
Government of Natural Law to render all governments as really
sovereign governments in their own countries and to quietly raise
the efficiency of every government on a par with the Government of
Nature and thereby substantiate the purpose of government in every
country.
A global awakening of the failure of
governments everywhere, and a global demand from the world press for
something new in the field of politics, attracted Maharishi to the
field of politics.
Maharishi was moved by the logic that the
democratic system prevailing in the world invites anyone to enter
into government and serve the nation through his knowledge and
ability.
The discovery of the Constitution of the
Universe within the human physiology has given a very solid
foundation and strength to Maharishi’s global political programme to
transform the field of politics and establish the rule of Natural
Law in all parts of the world.
Every responsible politician in any
country should now turn to the royal road of Administration through
Natural Law (which is already quietly administering the activity of
all systems and structures of the body), and this will mean that the
national government will quietly receive the full support of Natural
Law, and positivity and harmony will prevail in national
consciousness. There will be conflict-free politics and a
problem-free government. National energy will not be wasted in
oppositions of political parties, and all the national intelligence
will be used for progress.
‡‡‡‡‡Maharishi formally established the
organizational structure of ‘Maharishi’s Global Administration
through Natural Law’ on Guru Purnima Day, 30 July 1996:
'It
is a very, very great delight for me that I have a chance now,
after Puja to Guru Dev, to express to you all, for the world of
all times, the establishment of this global organization which has
now been established with the blessings of Guru Dev, as the Prasad
of Guru Puja.
'This
global organization will establish administration through Vedic
Knowledge in the centre of every country, and this will enliven
the organizing power of Natural Law for the government and give
invincibility to the government, peace and happiness to the
people, and will give nourishing sovereignty to every sovereign
nation.
'Now,
through this global organization, I am inviting all governments
who have been living under the influence of other nations to enjoy
real freedom—no free country in my world should be dependent on
any other country: “Get into this knowledge of Natural Law,
enliven Natural Law in your people, enliven Natural Law in the
collective consciousness of your nation, and you will be the
custodian of Natural Law.”
'This
I am saying to every government: “You will hold the balance of
power in the world even if you are a small country. As long as you
are a free country; as long as you have power to make laws; as
long as you have a currency, establish this centre of total
knowledge—Brahma-Sthan—in the centre of your country, and as
knowledge has organizing power, with the bliss of total
knowledge—Brahmananda—lively in your country, the infinite
organizing power of Natural Law will be at your command—you will
command authority
in the family of nations—you will hold the
balance of power in the world."
'My
global organization that is being set today is to give
sovereignty, real invincibility—unrestricted total authority of
sovereignty—to every government.’ —Maharishi

Publication, 1999.
‡‡‡‡‡‡‡ The Global Country of World Peace will establish Global
Administration through Natural Law by enlivening the nourishing
evolutionary power of Natural Law in the life of every individual
and in the collective consciousness of the whole world. The Global
Country of World Peace has sovereignty in the domain of
consciousness, authority in the invincible power of Natural Law, and
a parental role in the family of nations.
From 12 October to 16 October 2000,
during a five-day coronation ceremony (Rajyabhishek), Professor Tony
Nader, MD, PhD, was crowned the First Sovereign Ruler of the Global
Country of World Peace. On 17 October 2000, Professor Nader—whom
Maharishi has honoured with the title 'Maharaja Adhiraj Raja Raam'
in keeping with the tradition of the Royal Rulership of Raam, the
Rule of Natural Law—graciously accepted his new role and announced
the Ministries of the Global Country of World Peace, each upheld by
the total Constitution of the Universe. (For further information on
