Maharishi has a comprehensive theory in which he re-defines what Invincibilty (for America or any nation) really entails. there is an entire website devoted to this understanding at: http://maharishi.invincibledefence.org/introduction.html "The real basis of defence is invincibility." "Invincible defence means that the need for defence should not arise and the nation smoothly continues to enjoy peace, freedom, and prosperity -- the natural dignity of a sovereign nation." "The need for defence will not arise if there is no enemy; no enemy will be born to a nation that has an invincible national consciousness and radiates an indomitable, soothing influence of peace." key slogans: "Victory Before War" - "Disallow the Birth of an Enemy" - "Destroy the Enmity in the Enemy"
