Maharishi’s Vedic Peace Performance—Group Practice of the Transcendental
Meditation Program and Yogic Flying, and Ati Rudrabhishek Maha
Yagya The last time that there were 7000 flying together and three Ati Rudrabhisheks were performed daily (at Maharishi Nagar near Delhi in the late 1980s and into 1990), the Cold War came to an end, the Warsaw Pact and the Soviet Union dissolved, and there was a massive reduction in armaments. Then the group was dramatically reduced when the donors supporting the group were unable to continue. The momentum for peace on earth lessened.
The Progress of Maharishi’s Project for Perpetual World Peace from Veda
Bhumi Bharat—India, the Land of the Veda On the basis of the generosity of a number of donors in the United States, 3000 acres of land were purchased in Western India, and massive construction was begun there and at the Brahmasthan (central point) of India. So far, space for 9000 Vedic Pandits is 75 percent complete in Western India, and these buildings can be finished for $5.9 million. At the Brahmastah n of India, accommodations for 5000 Vedic Pandits are nearly complete, and can be finished for $3.5 million. The intention is to build for 3000 more there immediately, which will cost an extra $3 million. When these facilities are completed (and they can be finished in three months), we will have Vastu buildings for two groups of 8000 Pandits. Simultaneously, Dr. Varma-ji will start work on a third campus for 8000 (at a cost of $10 million). There are three places where we have land available for this campus. There are already 3000 Yogic Flying Vedic Pandits at the Brahmasthan of India, and on Mahashivaratri, February 23rd, they began to perform Ati Rudrabhishek morning and evening. Many thousand more Vedic Pandits trained in Rudrabhishek from all over India are available to come to these three Vastu locations. When all three groups are set, then we will have at least 18 Ati Rudrabhishek Maha Yagyas performed daily —something unprecedented in thousands of years.
Scholarship Costs Adding the total construction costs of $22.4 million and the living expenses for the first two years, the grand total we will need to gather is $47.6 million. But even with part of that amount raised right away, we will be well on the way to an era of perpetual peace—a New World Order of Affluence and Peace for the whole human race. Already in the first days there is a wave of support to bring the Vedic Pandit World Peace project to fulfillment. $3.75 million has been pledged, plus $500,000 in loans, for a total of $4.25 million ($3 million of which has been received). So we are well on the way, allowing Dr. Varma-ji to at least start the necessary construction and begin assembling the additional Vedic Pandits required.
The Time for Prevention The Russians have responded by test firing their missiles to show they are still a nuclear power. Many governments in the Middle East are deeply angered by the United States’ bombings. Wars break out and spread with lightning speed, often without any apparent logic. So the call of time is Heyam Duhkham Anagatam —Avert the danger that has not yet come (Yoga Sutra 2.16). It could be said we should have done this long ago. But past is past— now we have to take care of our future, and make a world of Unity Consciousness, a Global Country of World Peace.
Our Fortune: To Have Maharishi’s Vedic Technologies of Peace One important point is that when the enlightened of the United States give their support to the big groups of Vedic Pandits in India, this act becomes also a massive national yagya for the United States itself—to improve the nation’s fortune, reverse the bombing tendencies of the government, and counteract some of the negative consequences of past mistakes by the government. Of course, Group Yogic Flying by Purusha, Mother Divine, the Golden Domes and at all Maharishi Vedic Centers is also essential for this. But support for India and its Ati Rudrabhishek Maha Yagyas and Global Maharishi Effect Group Flying will powerfully rebound to the benefit of the United States and all its citizens, as well as the whole world. So this is a precious opportunity for us all to write our names in golden letters in the history of the world as creators of perpetual peace. Our generation of the enlightened can make our world a unified world, enjoying unity in diversity and bliss, harmony and prosperity, a world of Brahmi Chetina —Unity Consciousness. This is our chance to show ourselves to be the true Citizens of the Global Country of World Peace, living our lives according to the Vedic principle Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam —The World Is My Family. |
