To me it's more simple to think of it this way:
As Maharishi has been commenting recently:
That the Transcendent is like the zero point;
Then vibrationally anything coming in contact with the zero point is
effected by it;
In that the zero point flattens any vibration, which is not aligned
with it.
So, when you are drenched in the transcendent, then anything in your
awareness is effected by it.
So, there would be a feeling of calmness or tranquality there, that
effects all with which it contacts.
In samadhi, this has to do with the stillness of the breath.
Eckart Tolle calls it the effect of silence- he says the greatest
thing you can bring to any situation, is your silence.
So, vibrationally it's easy to see and feel, how in all the negative
situations in the world, from the extremes of war, and so on.
That the extreme, and disturbed vibrations of these places need to be
calmed;
And that is why the situation in Iraq is so perplexing to everyone-
Because the intensity of the negative forces, and vibrations are so
intense, and disturbing-
But, ultimately, what is needed there, is to calm these forces.
And from my point of view, to get a few of the soldiers over there,
to meditate, in the middle of all that chaos- would accomplish so
much more, than all the violent forces could ever accomplish.
