May it be allowed to question with all due respect, kowtow and hand kisses to my Lady of the Lake Jude your references. You mentioning as a source for Dr.Domash article your battleground where you fought so brave for purity and integrity...when there is the article as a whole available at mum. Oh my dear , let us consider with Lawrence Domash that " the degree of consciousness may be related to the degree of long-range spatial and temporal comprehension and awareness"and therefore related our degree of long-range spatial and temporal comprehension and awareness to the wholeness of the article and it in devotion so brilliantly described implication. , not forgetting the context,too. The introduction "Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and the Transcendental Meditation Program: A New Direction for Scientific Research" continues with:
"It would be shortsighted, however, to believe that Maharishi will be regarded in the future merely as the man who introduced to science a certain new or revived relaxation technique with a variety of measurable effects. Rather, it seems certain that he will properly come to be regarded as the man who changed the entire scope and direction of scientific research by compelling science to recognize in its own terms and by its own methods the existence and reality of a new state of consciousness. This is the real discovery, of which the Transcendental Meditation technique itself is actually a technological application, and it is surely a development of much more far-reaching importance for scientific knowledge than all of the other great scientific advances of this century combined. It is to this point that we would like to devote the remainder of this introduction." and continues with: "Implications of Research on the Transcendental Meditation Program" http://www.mum.edu/RelId/651822/ISvars/default/Maharishi-Mahesh-Yog.htm http://www.mum.edu/RelId/651822/ISvars/default/Maharishi-Mahesh-Yog.htm In editors note: – ..Also since that time, modern theoretical physics has further advanced a fundamental concept that Dr. Domash discusses in this essay, namely that there is a basic state of least excitation known as the ground state, or “vacuum state,” of any field, which Dr. Domash compares with the field of pure consciousness. Modern physics has now developed completely unified field theories, mathematical descriptions of a field of unity underlying all the diversity of the universe and uniting all the fundamental force and matter fields. At the time he wrote this essay, Dr. Domash was Chancellor of Maharishi European Research University, in Switzerland, and shortly thereafter became the second president of Maharishi International University (1977–1980)." Objection Your Honour. Could they not give our Superradiancer-now-Floor sweeper Lawrence Domash more credit than "ground state, or “vacuum state” formulation?
