The horrors of war and terrorism that are continually being witnessed in the world have created fear and anguish in every generation. Our worlds long and tragic history of war presents a challenge now to the most fortunate and prosperous citizens of every nation to finally create a lasting peace on earth.
War and acts of terrorism can affect anyone at any time in any place, without warning. The leaders of the world would be wise therefore to take action to end war in the worldto save their own lives and financial security, and to protect the lives of their families, the people of their nation, and their world family.
His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who introduced Transcendental Meditation to the world forty years ago and opened the gateway of enlightenment to millions of people, has now established the Endowment Fund for Permanent World Peace to achieve this goal in a practical way.
The Endowment Fund for Permanent World Peace is a permanent fund whose principal will never be touched. The income generated by the Funds investments will be used only for the purpose of maintaining peace on earth.
Specifically, the income from the Endowment Fund will be used to support 40,000 professionals in the Vedic Technologies of Peace, located on several university campuses in India, whose practices will secure world peace now and for all future generations.
Maharishi has brought to light the Vedic Technologies of Peace from Indias ancient Vedic tradition of complete knowledge of Natural Law. Scientific research confirms that large groups of experts in Transcendental Meditation and Yogic Flying generate a measurable influence of order and harmony in world consciousness (called the Maharishi Effect), dramatically reducing violence and warfare.
The proven effectiveness of these Vedic Technologies of Peace, confirmed through decades of research and experience worldwide, reveals that finally there is a concrete, practical way to create lasting peace on earth, with every nation sovereign and invincible and a friend to every other nation. These groups of experts, which are already forming in India, will forever free our world family from the fear of terrorism, war, and destruction
On October 7, 2000, Maharishi founded the Global Country of World Peace, a country without borders, which welcomes the peace-loving citizens of all nations. His Majesty Raja Nader Raam, the first sovereign ruler of the Global Country of World Peace, along with the 40 members of his Cabinet, is ready to help organize these groups of coherence-creating experts in the Vedic Technologies of Peace, so that every country may enjoy increasing prosperity and harmony, rise to invincibility, and the world as a whole will usher in the dawn of a new era of affluence and perpetual peace.
