The horrors of war being witnessed in Yugoslavia have created fear in the hearts of every one everywhere. And this fear is completely justified. Maharishi says: "Those who destroy will be destroyed. It is inevitable—it is just a Law of Nature." Maharishi recently remarked to Dr. John Hagelin that for the United States it is not a question of this war or that war. The issue is the trend of the U.S. to deal with conflicts through destruction —if someone doesn’t agree with you, then you send them to heaven.

The National Security Council of the United States has become the National Destruction Council. Its capability to give security to America is nil—it is a fraud. It may be a personal security council to give security to President Clinton and his cabinet, but offers no security to the nation—in fact it endangers the nation. Maharishi has warned that if this destructive trend continues, in the next generation there will be no United States.

This trend of foreign policy through violent attack has to be urgently protected against and transformed to a better way. NATO should be negated, and only the Americans of today can do it. And how to do it?

Persuasion does not create peace— the UN has proven that. Violence does not create peace—NATO has proven that. In fact the whole human history has proven that neither of these approaches works, and that there is nothing that has created peace up until now. So our choices are to accept war throughout the world as inevitable, or to do something new that really has been demonstrated to create indomitable world peace.

Maharishi has told us for more than 20 years that the only way to create peace is to take recourse to Natural Law—to take recourse to the higher intelligence which is the administrator of the universe and is at the basis of our own physiology. He asked us to practice Yogic Flying in large groups, and create a group of 7,000 Yogic Flyers, if we wanted to secure peace on earth, and safety for the nation. But we didn’t do it.

Maharishi is again telling us that only through group Yogic Flying can disaster be averted. And he has offered help—groups of young Vedic Pandits can be sent from India to practice Yogic Flying and recite the Vedic Literature in the United States.

Maharishi’s proposal is that at least 1,000 Yogic Flying Vedic Pandits come to each of the four Time Zone Capitals of Maharishi Global Administration through Natural Law which have their seat in the United States.

In addition, the Maharishi Global Development Fund has established an Endowment Fund for Perpetual World Peace. We should inspire every wealthy person for their own sake to donate funds for an endowment to permanently support the Vedic Pandit Flyers.

Maharishi has repeatedly inspired the Time Zone Administrators to focus day and night on organizing for the Pandits to come to the U.S., and on making everyone aware how truly fearful the situation is that we all face.

A German physicist, Albert Einstein, in 1939 proposed to President Roosevelt a weapon of mass destruction, which was used to destroy Hiroshima.

Now a German scientist of this generation, Dr. Volker Schanbacher, is proposing a weapon of Natural Law which is nourishing and peace creating— a technology of peace which the United States can use to become a Country of World Peace, and erase the memory of Hiroshima, and the present disaster of NATO.

The choice now for our generation is whether to go for destruction, or rise above destructive power and go for the nourishment of all life on earth through Maharishi’s technologies of Natural Law.

Can you imagine if bombs began to fall on Washington, D.C. and to destroy the high-rises of the money markets of New York? Will NATO be able to prevent this? When our house is in uncontrollable flames, it is too late to dig a well to get the water. Better to prevent the house from catching fire in the first place. Maharishi’s approach to creating peace and preventing all future wars must be fully applied with greatest urgency. The alternative is unthinkable.
