Maharishi Mahesh Yogi this week invited the world’s billionaires to make their nations invincible by employing 500 to 1000 people in the country to practice Transcendental Meditation and its more advanced Yogic Flying technique, and thereby create coherence in collective consciousness—the basis of true freedom, sovereignty, and invincibility for the nation.

“Here is a beautiful invitation for any billionaire to transform the nation from problems and suffering to affluence and peace through the science and technology of total Natural Law. Here is an invitation for any billionaire to be crowned as the true ruler of his country,” Maharishi said.

Extensive scientific research published in the world’s leading journals has found that group practice of Yogic Flying by a small number of people in the country (as few as the square root of one percent of the population) is enough to reduce negative trends, including crime and violence, and promote positive economic and social tendencies throughout society.

The cost to train and employ the group of Yogic Flyers in the country will be a tiny fraction of what any government spends on its military in a single day.

Maharishi’s approach to invincibility is in sharp contrast with the conventional military approach. “Our approach does not require the government to sacrifice the youth for the sake of the nation—because when the youth are killed in war, then for whom is the nation?” Maharishi said.

Maharishi emphasized that even if no billionaires immediately accept the invitation, there are two additional viable approaches to make the nation invincible:

1. Five hundred to a thousand ordinary citizens in a country can be trained in Yogic Flying.  They can then lease a hall and practice Yogic Flying together every day to raise their nation to invincibility.
2. Parents with children who are having difficulties with conventional learning can have their children trained in Yogic Flying, and through their group practice of the technique, the children will create integrated, invincible national consciousness.

“Now the wealthy citizens or the ordinary citizens or the children who do not enjoy learning can raise their country to invincibility,” Maharishi said.

Groups of Yogic Flyers are already engaged in creating coherent national consciousness in 15 nations, including Holland and America, where both countries are enjoying a dramatic and sustained upsurge in positive economic and social trends. Similar invincibility groups will soon be under way in 40 more countries.

“The time has come for every country to crown one person—or a group of people—who will assume the parental responsibility to raise the nation to invincibility,” Maharishi said.

The crowning ceremonies will be held on Thursday, September 7.

Maharishi will answer questions about his invitation to billionaires and his global program to raise every nation to invincibility during his next global news conferences on August 30 and 31.
