Peace and Invincibility for Every Nation
Our students help create invincibility for our nation and peace for our world, even as they go about their daily activity of being students.
How do they do this? Through their group meditation practice, twice each day.
Nowhere else can a person’s contribution to peace be so powerful.
Message from John Hagelin, Ph.D., Professor of Physics:
“Today, every nation is vulnerable. Even the mightiest nations are held hostage by small terrorist groups. Conventional military approaches are increasingly powerless to protect a nation against terrorist attack, against new destructive technologies, or against missiles with pinpoint accuracy.
“Diplomatic efforts seem equally powerless. In a world divided by deep-seated hostilities and regional tensions, negotiated settlements and ceasefires have brought temporary relief, at best. Paper treaties and discussions among representatives of warring nations are too fragile a basis for lasting peace.
“How, then, can we achieve lasting peace and protect the security, stability, and well-being of every nation?
The underlying cause of conflict
“According to recent research, traditional approaches to national security fail because they do not address the underlying cause of violence and conflict: they do not relieve the acute political, ethnic, and religious tensions that fuel terrorism and conflict. We need an effective means to eliminate these deep-seated tensions — a proven approach that can safeguard a nation against violence and promote peace and prosperity in the world.
“During the last 25 years, a powerful, innovative approach to peace has been extensively field tested throughout the world. The consistent result has been dramatic reductions in terrorism, war, and other social violence. These findings have been replicated, published in leading academic journals, and endorsed by independent scientists and scholars. The efficacy of this approach is now beyond question.
“These studies verify that the scientific knowledge and technologies are now available to end terrorism and conflict, to achieve indomitable national strength and security, and to create permanent world peace.”
