Vedic Science: Practical Applications for Our Modern World
Vedic education, or Consciousness-Based education, is education for enlightenment-the full unfoldment of human potential. Its foundation is Yoga, the direct and systematic experience of transcendence through the Transcendental Meditation technique.
This experience of transcendence, or Samadhi, produces global EEG coherence in the brain-a holistic, integrated style of brain functioning categorically different from that of other meditative techniques. Global EEG coherence is directly correlated with increased creativity, IQ, grade point average, moral reasoning, field independence, and holistic improvements in intellectual performance, as scientific research has confirmed.
However, Consciousness-Based education is more than brain development. Since transcending gives direct experience of the unified field, and since all of creation is the display of the unified field, the experience of transcendence serves as an interdisciplinary foundation to understand and appreciate all fields of knowledge in terms of one’s own Self. “Know Thyself” means “Know That, knowing which everything else is known.”
To demonstrate the basis of Consciousness-Based education in Vedic knowledge, all theories of modern science have been correlated and organized according to one verse from the Rk Veda (1:164:39). Modern science and technology have thereby discovered their source in Maharishi’s science and technology of consciousness.
Extensive research has demonstrated the profound benefits of the TM technique and Consciousness-Based education in restoring balanced brain functioning, alleviating symptoms of ADHD, and improving academic performance and reducing suspensions in public schools.
Vedic defense is based on the creation of a powerful, coherent national consciousness that prevents the birth of an enemy (Heyam dukham anagatam, Yoga Sutra 2:16).
This peace-creating effect is produced by large groups of TM and TM-Sidhi practitioners collectively transcending in one place, thereby creating a “field effect of consciousness”-a spillover of coherence and harmony into the surrounding population that neutralizes the societal stress fueling conflict and war.
During the last 25 years, this powerful, innovative approach to peace has been extensively field tested-in the Middle East and throughout the world. The consistent result has been dramatic reductions in crime, terrorism, war, and other social violence.
Even a relatively small group of peace-creating experts-only the square root of 1% of a given population-can defuse societal stress for tens of millions of people and create a measurable, statistically significant positive impact.More than 50 replications and 23 published scientific studies provide compelling support for this Vedic approach to defense and peace. No other approach has a comparable track record of success.
This Vedic technology of defense has already been implemented in several U.S. military programs and in the military regimen of several countries, where the goal is to train 3,500 active-duty personnel in this approach to peace-as well as 9,000 Vedic Pandits performing Yoga and Yagya in the Brahmasthan (center) of India.
In addition to its societal impact-reduction of crime and social unrest, improved relations with neighbors, and improved national health and prosperity-this Vedic technology of defense also improves health and resilience among participating soldiers. TM practice has been particularly effective in relieving the debilitating symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in veterans and active-duty military personnel, as research has shown.
Vedic rehabilitation introduces the experience of transcendence through TM and TM-Sidhi practice among prison populations, with striking reductions in anxiety, substance abuse, aggression, hostility, and recidivism.
In October 2000, inspired by these findings, Maharishi founded the Global Country of World Peace, a country without borders for peace-loving people everywhere, as the basis for reestablishing Vedic civilization-an enlightened world of Brahmi-Chetana in which the scientific truth of unity is a living reality-Raam Raj.
