Transcendental Meditation positively impacts student graduation rates, new research shows 10.06.2013 A new study published in the June 2013 issue of the journal Education (Vol. 133, No. 4)* shows practice of the Transcendental Meditation® technique was associated with higher graduation rates, compared to controls. Higher graduation rates affect not only the academic and personal life of the individual students, but also society as a whole. Graduation (versus dropping out) from high school translates into higher earning potential, less crime and incarceration, and less dependence on government assistance programs. read more ... http://www.innovations-report.de/html/berichte/studien/transcendental_meditation_positively_impacts_student_215226.html

[FairfieldLife] Course on Organic Gardening in the light of Maharishi Vedic Science
Maharishi’s Global Family Chat May 28, 2013 ... Next course on Organic Gardening in the light of Maharishi Vedic Science starting at MUM on 8 June. Raja Luis reports on a continuing tsunami of achievements and upcoming projects ___ Dr Swan reported on the great success of recent courses on gardening and agriculture in light of Maharishi Vedic Science at the Peace Palace in Erfurt at the centre of Germany, and at the Brahmasthan of Italy. The courses were enjoyed for the knowledge, for the practical insights and methods, and for the inspiration, fun and laughter in the group. In Erfurt the group enjoyed hands-on experience making the garden of the Peace Palace. The centre point (Brahmasthan) of Italy is in Umbria, one of the most beautiful parts of Italy. All the course participants wanted practical knowledge of vegetable gardening, as in Italy everyone has an 'orto' (vegetable garden), and loves to produce fresh, delicious tomatoes, eggplants and herbs at home. One aspect of knowledge that everyone finds fascinating is ‘agreeing with the culturing intelligence’, Maharishi’s profound play on ‘agriculture’, or ‘agree-culture’. The culturing intelligence of natural law is expressed throughout nature, and Dr Swan gave compelling examples from modern research showing how the great majority of organisms work together in a grand cooperation that creates ever-increasing productivity. The next course will be held at Maharishi University of Management for the many people who were unable to join last year. The course schedule is structured to be convenient for faculty, students and Invincible America participants. The first lecture (overview of the course) is free for everyone. .^. Raja Luis reported, that as consciousness is rising, nations are responding with a continual tsunami of achievements and demands for upcoming projects. The city of Ciudad Juarez (in northern Mexico) has been known as the most violent city in the world for decades. Suddenly in the last few months it has become peaceful. Journalists are writing about it: no-one knows why there is peace, least of all the police and military. Raja Luis explained that a few months ago a large school in northern Mexico implemented Consciousness-Based Education, with many students practicing Yogic Flying and creating harmony in the collective consciousness. This week a further 3,000 Mexican students will be receiving the Yogic Flying technique – in addition to the 8,000 already practising. In Peru a presentation by the local Governors to 200 school directors became so full of bliss and filled with the joy of life, that the feeling became ‘viral’, and resulted in the directors requesting Consciousness-Based Education for another 300,000 students in their areas. Further large groups of students practicing Yogic Flying are coming up quickly, and it is now expected that four crucial countries will soon join the list of invincible countries of Latin America: Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Venezuela. In some of these countries the groups are coming up in the military schools. Raja Luis now has many approaches to maintain national coherence during school holidays with groups that do not disperse: orphanages, prisons, security forces, companies, and groups of traditional people. Another new angle is ‘People for Coherence’—groups practising together every day as a professional activity. © 2013 Global Country of World Peace

[FairfieldLife] Learning Transcendental Meditation 'best investment I will ever make'
UK: Learning Transcendental Meditation 'best investment I will ever make' Transcendental Meditation News - UK 2 April 2013 When John McHale learnt Transcendental Meditation a year ago, it was quite by chance. Being naturally a contented person, and with a successful career as the Project Manager for a commercial property development company in the UK, he was feeling more than satisfied with the way his life was going. ''Having always been a happy person, I wasn't particularly searching for something that would bring more to my enjoyment of life. In fact I found out about Transcendental Meditation by accident whilst watching some videos of Russell Brand stand up [comedy] on YouTube. I came across another video that mentioned his practice of Transcendental Meditation. Watching this video and subsequent ones led me to go for my 30 minute introductory talk in Cambridge.'' Despite considerable doubts, he decided to go ahead and learn. ''My teacher Jonathan Hinde was the perfect instructor for my sceptical mind. He answered my questions with a combination of experience, knowledge, and patience, and was not at all fazed by my probing into the benefits that all seemed too good to be true at the time.'' John also mentions that the course fee was initially a concern. ''Now I am in no doubt that it was the best investment I will ever make in terms of the health and life benefits. If a tablet could provide the same benefits I am sure that the cost over a lifetime would be hundreds or thousands of times more. In addition Jonathan's time, which he continues to give generously a year on, seems incredible value when compared with the charges made by others, such as life coaches or health professionals.'' Experiencing the good effects of the technique first-hand, John went on to inspire several of his family and friends to learn as well. ''Some of my family and close friends are now benefitting from the increased sense of well-being and happiness that meditating brings. The knowledge that my friends and family are getting these benefits is the greatest gift that Transcendental Meditation has given me.'' Global Good News will continue to feature this profile of John McHale, in which he goes on to describe how practising Transcendental Meditation has helped him become more healthy and more resistant to the stresses of a very demanding career.

[FairfieldLife] treating PTSD with TM
US: New York City event focuses on treating PTSD with Transcendental Meditation by Global Good News staff writer Global Good News 12 May 2013 An event at the New York Athletics Club in February aimed to raise awareness of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and its effective treatment with Transcendental Meditation. A newly released video features the event—'Overcoming PTSD and Preventing Suicides: An Evidence-based Approach through Meditation in the Military'—hosted by the David Lynch Foundation and Operation Warrior Wellness, which was designed to raise support for veterans and active-duty military personnel to get help dealing with PTSD. This issue has come to the forefront in recent years, with suicide among veterans and active-duty service members at an all-time high. According to Ed Schloeman, CMS (Ret.) NYANG (New York Air National Guard) and the National Co-Chair of Operation Warrior Wellness, PTSD is 'a subject that the leadership in our military and in our government have called an epidemic'. He added that there were a record number of suicides in 2011, but that number increased in 2012, surpassing combat deaths. Robert Cancro, MD, Professor and Chairman Emeritus of Psychiatry at New York University Langone Medical Center, added that Post-Traumatic Stress, though its cause is psychological, has far-reaching effects. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder 'is as real as a physical injury in terms of the neurological consequences', Dr Cancro said. Rear Admiral (Ret.) Richard W. Schneider, President of America's first private military college, Norwich University, agreed that PTSD deserves more scrutiny and dedication to finding effective treatments. He said, 'I think we should change the name of Post-Traumatic Stress ''Disorder'' to ''Injury'' because [patients] are injured.' Marguerite Meyer, EdD, Director of the Academic Achievement Center at Norwich University, thinks Transcendental Meditation might be the most effective treatment available and she says the research backs her up. Dr Meyer cited a study that found a quick increase in resilience amongst soldiers in the United States and Scandinavia who practise Transcendental Meditation. She pointed out that a higher score on the resiliency scale is known to predict the success of Army Special Ops. 'This is a really stunning example,' Dr Meyer said, 'of how TM after a brief amount of time has made a huge difference.' Copyright © 2013 Global Good News Service

[FairfieldLife] New papers on Transcendental Meditation (TM)
New papers onTranscendental Meditation (TM)for lowering hypertension and Post-Traumatic Stress symptoms Dear Colleagues, Here is a newly reported scientific statement from the American Heart Association recommending TM practice for hypertension, and a new paper reporting that the practice is effective in reducing post-traumatic stress symptoms in Congolese refugees. 1. TM recommended for hypertension by the American Heart Association. An estimated 29% of American adults suffer from hypertension and it is projected to affect >1.5 billion people by 2025. It accounts for 13.5% of all deaths and half of all strokes and ischemic heart disease. The global hypertension-related public health burden is enormous.1 The American Heart Association just published a scientific statement on alternative approaches to reducing blood pressure, which included a critical evaluation of research on meditation techniques, including the Transcendental Meditation technique (TM). 1 Here is what they said about the TM technique and other meditation practices: · “TM may be considered in clinical practice to lower BP. · Because of many negative studies or mixed results and a paucity of available trials, all other meditation techniques (including MBSR) received a Class III, no benefit, Level of Evidence C recommendation . · Thus, other meditation techniques are not recommended in clinical practice to lower BP at this time.” MBSR refers to Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. Here is a link to the full report. http://hyper.ahajournals.org/content/early/2013/04/22/HYP.0b013e318293645f.full.pdf+html?sid=0aea85a1-f240-4b68-8174-07ecc3e2cfec 2. TM reduces PTSD symptoms in Congolese refugees. The Second Congo War killed 5.4 million people and forced an estimated 80,000 refugees to flee. A new controlled study published in the Journal of Traumatic Stress of Congolese refugees in a camp near Kampala, Uganda found that TM practice markedly reduced post-traumatic stress symptoms from the severe level to the normal level at the one month and 4.5 month posttests.2 Abstract: This matched single-blind pilot study tested the effect of Transcendental Meditation R [1] (TM) practice on symptoms of posttraumatic stress (PTS) in Congolese refugees. Urban refugees (N = 102) staying around Kampala, Uganda attended introductory meetings. After initial random assignment to the TM group, 30 refugees who revealed that they were unable to attend all meetings were eliminated from the study. The remaining 21 TM group participants were then instructed in TM and matched with refugees in the control group on age, sex, and baseline scores on the Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist–Civilian (PCL-C). All participants completed the PCL-C measure of PTS symptoms at baseline, and 30-day and 135-day posttests. The PCL-C scores in the control group trended upward. In contrast, the PCL-C scores in the TM group went from 65 on average at baseline indicating severe PTS symptoms to below 30 on average after 30 days of TM practice, and remained low at 135 days. Effect size was high (d > 1.0). Compliance with TM practice was good; most reported regular practice throughout the study. There were no adverse events. All refugees who learned TM completed the study and were able to practice TM successfully, with subsequent substantial reduction in PTS symptoms. 1. Brook RD, Appel LJ, Rubenfire M, et al.

He offers Bridgewater employees free meditation training. * Rick Goings, chairman and CEO of Tupperware, says he learned transcendental meditation directly from the Maharishi, who died in 2008. “It’s a practice that not only burns off stress but gives me fresh eyes to clarify what’s really going on and what really matters,” says Goings (paywall). * Russell Simmons, co-founder of Def Jam, the hip-hop record label, says transcendental mediation “has changed my experiences in meditation and therefore my experiences in life.” * Vidal Sassoon, founder of Sassoon, who died last year, called transcendental meditation the “simple key” to self-awareness. http://qz.com/76717/rupert-murdoch-transcendental-meditation/ ...~ http://au.businessinsider.com/om-the-front-page-rupert-murdoch-is-learning-transcendental-meditation-2013-4

[FairfieldLife] MGF Chat 20 March 2013 - The Maharishi Vedic Pandit Programme
Maharishi’s Global Family Chat March 20, 2013 The Maharishi Vedic Pandit Programme: Bringing fulfillment to the goals of every religion and culture through the enlivenment of Total Natural Law. ~ In this Maharishi Global Family Chat, Dr. Chris Crowell, Minister of Religion and Culture for the Global Country of World Peace, presented the understanding of how the knowledge and application of Maharishi Yoga and Maharishi Yagya can systematically create a more heavenly time of peace and progress for all mankind. The presentation began with a short video clip of Maharishi beautifully describing the Vedic Pandits and their ability to transform the trends of life. He explained how these Vedic Experts experience and function from the Unified Field of Nature’s intelligence, utilizing the reverberations of Natural Law—the sounds of the Veda—to neutralize negative influences for individuals and nations. Using charts from modern science, and animation, Dr. Crowell then illustrated the mechanics of Vedic technologies that maintain the connection of the vast infinite range of diversity of life with that holistic value of Total Natural Law, harmonizing differences between religions and cultures. Yoga and Yagya: Maharishi Vedic Pandits, established in the Atma, the field of pure consciousness, are able to enliven the supreme governing intelligence of Natural Law so that a universal influence of peace is created for the people of every tradition in every land. Dr. Crowell explained that many cultures around the world have traditions of sound and ceremony to enliven Natural Law in specific ways. But it is only with Maharishi’s restoration of Vedic technologies to deepen the experience of the performance from a more fundamental level of life, to awaken individual and collective consciousness, that these ceremonies and recitations can regain their alliance with Natural Law and produce the desired results of abundance, progress and peace. * The presentation ended with a slide show of the history of the Maharishi Vedic Pandit programme from the first global Mahayagya performance in modern times, organized by Maharishi’s Guru Dev, Brahmananda Saraswati, Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, in February 1944, through the inauguration in June 1982 of the education wing of the Movement that specifically trains Maharishi Vedic Pandits, to the expansion of the first large groups of Yogic Flying Vedic Pandits in the mid to late 1980s, to finally, the present establishment of the Global Capital of Raam Raj in the Brahmasthan of India. A Historic Vision of the Maharishi Vedic Pandit Programme: Decade after decade, the world’s greatest peace-creating group has guided the trends of time. Dr. Crowell ended by thanking all those well-wishers throughout our world family, from every religion and culture, who have contributed to the preservation and expansion of the Maharishi Vedic Pandit Programme for World Peace. “One really feels the great purity of the life of the Maharishi Vedic Pandits who have been trained to safeguard the destiny of the world. Thank you very much to every single individual around the globe who is supporting this historic peace initiative.” ** Four Levels of Speech: In a short video, Dr. John Hagelin described the necessity for Vedic Pandits to perform from all four levels of speech—from the expressed sound, through mental and feeling levels to the transcendental level—must be engaged in order to enliven the total potential of Natural Law and produce the desired effect from any distance. _ ~~~ To Support the Maharishi Vedic Pandit Group in India, please visit: www.vedicpandits.org © 2013 Global Country of World Peace

[FairfieldLife] Transcendental Meditation – becoming popular again
@ http://kennethwestlee.com/2013/02/28/transcendental-meditation-becoming-popular-again/ By kennethwestlee on February 28, 2013 • ( 0 ) Sometime into my awakening I began looking into meditation. A great friend of mine and a mentor of mine both told me that they practice meditation routinely. I’ve heard of wild psychedelic meditations as well as spiritual atonement meditations. I tried following some basic meditation guidelines online but quickly became frustrated from not having a worldly meditative experience or spiritual hallucinations. Then I discovered TM (Transcendental Meditation). The first thing I learned was, The Beatles did it. Then I learned Jim Carey, Russell Brand, Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Russell Simmons, Clint Eastwood, Dr. Oz, and lots of CEO’s of Fortune 500 companies practice and advocate like mad for TM. What’s the big deal? Is it a placebo movement or is there real science to this meditation technique? Am I going to need to spend a month in a mountain cave learning this technique 24/7. Turns out, the answers were more incredible than I could ever hope for. TM is the most scientifically researched meditation technique to date. Why? Well because it is the most effective and immediate form of meditation ever considered, with mindfulness coming in second but far behind in the numbers. See the main scientific benefits and facts right here, click the most intriguing subjects and dive deeper for 30 seconds. I dove real deep, watched this 23 minute crash course on TM. Now I can preach it. So, TM works instantly. Great. What’s the secret to trying it out? The difficult thing to learn about TM is to not try at it, let it happen naturally. The ironic thing is that’s tougher than it sounds because we typically assume sitting down and meditating is making an effort towards meditation. Do you make a big effort to take a nap in the middle of the day when you really need one? The catch is, TM is something your body and mind have been wanting to do since you were born (like always needing a nap but never knowing a simple nap was the available solution). So if you can have someone show you how to use the mantra correctly (or really let the mantra use you), and teach you how to let it just happen naturally, your first time trying it you’re guaranteed to have a life changing experience. Have a quick 4 minutes to have your mind blown? Watch this video. This is the most impactful video I came across. The important thing is this: to be able, at any moment, to sacrifice what we are for what we can become. - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi *** @

The conference followed new reports that 22 veterans die from suicide every day. At the conference, combat veterans—P-51 fighter pilot Jerry Yellin, CMS (Ret.) Ed Schloeman and Afghanistan War veteran Luke Jensen—shared moving accounts of their personal battles with PTSD and, in Mr. Jensen’s case, close brushes with suicide. These men were able to triumph over terrible invisible wounds through twice daily practice of Transcendental Meditation. Norwich University President Richard W. Schneider presents on TM and resilience. WATCH THE VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS Compelling testimony from a panel of experts that included Rear Admiral (Ret.) Richard Schneider, President of Norwich University; Marguerite Meyer, Ed.D., Director of Norwich University's Academic Achievement Center; Robert Cancro, M.D., Chairman Emeritus of NYU Langone Medical Center; and Gary Kaplan, M.D., Ph.D., Associate Professor of Neurology at Hofstra University confirmed that the experiences of these courageous men are not unique. In fact, two studies performed on OEF/OIF and Vietnam War veterans found that PTSD symptoms dropped by nearly half in both populations. Further, preliminary results from ongoing research at Norwich University finds that TM increases constructive thinking, improves emotional health and develops greater resilience in future officers. The compelling data and moving accounts presented at the conference have inspired several national publications to help raise awareness about TM for veterans.

Somaly Mam was sold at a young age and endured years of exploitation and abuse in the brothels of Cambodia. But she escaped, and vowed never to forget those she left behind. Since 1996, Somaly has aided tens of thousands of victims in knowing their rights and having a voice in their lives, and her holistic shelters for recovery and skills training support hundreds of women and children each year in building new lives of emotional and economic strength. In 2007, two young Americans founded the Somaly Mam Foundation to support these shelters, empower survivors as agents of next-generation change, and engage governments, corporations, and individuals in the fight to end slavery. Over the past six months, the David Lynch Foundation has worked closely with the Somaly Mam Foundation to provide Transcendental Meditation to 200 residents, staff, and administrators in Somaly's three Cambodian shelters. Since learning the technique, the girls report significant reductions in stress, anxiety, and negative thoughts; increased calm, happiness, and peace of mind; and improved memory, clarity of thinking, and focus. Over the coming months, DLF will continue to provide TM instruction to more young women as they are rescued from the brothels and begin their new lives through the shelter’s support and care.

[FairfieldLife] Dr. Schneider begins Total Health World Tour 2013
Maharishi’s Global Family Chat January 28, 2013 Dr. Schneider begins Total Health World Tour Dr Robert Schneider, dean of Maharishi University of Management’s Maharishi College of Perfect Health, visited India, Nepal, and Greece in the first section of a world tour to spread the knowledge of Maharishi Vedic Medicine. The World Ayurveda Congress on public health in India, held in Bhopal, was attended by a number of Maharishi Ayurveda leaders, including Dr Oliver Werner, seen here addressing the congress. Dr Schneider presented on Maharishi Ayurveda, explaining the three areas of this approach to health: 1. the mind/body connection, 2. physiological approaches such as herbs, diet, purification procedures, and lifestyle, and 3. environmental approaches such as Maharishi Vedic architecture and Maharishi Vedic astrology. “The second area was the most familiar to the hundreds of Ayurvedic doctors in attendance,” Dr. Schneider said. “I think my presentation expanded their boundaries about what Ayurvedic medicine really is — beyond herbs to the inner and outer universes.” The group also visited the beautiful new Maharishi Vedic Health Centre including Panchakarma clinic while they were in Bhopal. In Delhi Dr Schneider presented a graduate and faculty seminar on the role of Maharishi Vedic Medicine and its verification by modern science at Apeejay University. The MAV group also attended the 25th anniversary celebration of Maharishi Ayurveda Products. Dr. Schneider then traveled to Nepal, where he spoke to several hundred students, faculty, and deans from the Ayurveda and the modern medicine colleges at Tribhuvan University. The presentation led to a discussion of partnering to create a college of integrative medicine and hospital in Nepal that would have an international student body and bring together the best of science-based natural medicine and modern medicine. The next stop was the University of Athens medical school, where he was a visiting professor for a graduate program in stress management. Again there was enthusiasm for developing an integrative medical school and health center for students worldwide. About his world tour, Dr. Schneider said, “It’s time to bring our University’s knowledge to the rest of the world.” He plans to continue the tour, targeting top-level decision-makers, such as academics, medical schools, and government agencies on every continent. He invites any National Directors who feel they could contribute, to contact him at rschnei...@maharishi.net. Dr Schneider can help locate the right people in each country, and he is also happy to address the Governors, Sidhas, and Meditators while he is in your country. This is a great opportunity to inform and delight your brightest meditators with Dr Schneider’s brilliant presentations on all aspects of health. **

[FairfieldLife] Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture expert's lecture
Understanding the basics of genetically modified organisms: Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture expert's lecture Global Good News 24 January 2013 What is genetic modification and how does it affect our lives? In a recent indepth lecture Dr Peter Swan, an expert in Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture, emphasized the importance of understanding this topic, as well as learning about other, healthier alternatives. He began by explaining what genetic modification is. Please see Part I of this article: Expert in Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture describes dangers of genetically modified food, presents solutions Dr Swan is the creator of an acclaimed course on Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture that he has taught in many countries: 'Maharishi Vedic Science in Agriculture and Environment: Key to Personal Enlightenment, Global Affluence, and Sustainability'. To understand genetic modification, Dr Swan said, we must first understand what a gene is and the role it plays in a plant's life. He described inspecting a leaf with a microscope and first seeing its tiny cells. Looking inside the cell one sees the nucleus; within the nucleus one sees chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), molecules encoded with genetic instructions that are used in the development and functioning of living organisms. A gene is a section, or piece, of the DNA that codes for a protein that produces ribonucleic acid (RNA)—and becomes a particular part of our body. >From this simple analysis we can see, Dr Swan said, the important role DNA >plays as basic building blocks for our body. Genetic modification, also called genetic engineering, is the process of extracting DNA from the cell of one organism and, using a 'gene gun', firing it into the DNA of another organism. According to researchers, one of the dangers of the genetic modification process is that it is not considered to be a precise science, and often combines different species that give rise to completely new organisms that have no evolutionary history.* Polls show that 90 per cent of Americans want GM foods to be labeled. Although they want transparency, a 'revolving door' phenomenon between the biotech industry and US governmental agencies responsible for food safety prevents this from developing. Senior people move back and forth working for the biotech industry and the federal government; former executives of Monsanto and other large chemical companies have been appointed to leadership positions in the very agencies that control the release of food safety studies and food policy. Although Monsanto, one of the largest biotech companies in the world, has extensively tested the safety of glyphosate, the main ingredient in their product Roundup, of the 180 different studies conducted over a period of time, results from 150 were never published or subjected to peer review. Monsanto and Dow Chemical base their claims of glyphosate's safety on selected industry research and assessments by some regulators taking into account only industry studies. Use of Monsanto's Roundup has led to the creation of over 350 'superweeds' covering millions of acres in the US, which are resistant even to very large applications of pesticides. Weeds treated with 16 times the normal concentration of Roundup could not be eliminated; yet although it has not proven useful, farmers continue to use the product. Chemical companies, including Dow, now offer farmers a new mixture of many different herbicides, including one (2,4-D) that was an ingredient in the defoliant Agent Orange in the Vietnam war. See recent related article from the Global Good News Positive Trends page: ∙ US: Dow's controversial new GMO corn delayed amid protests Global Good News will continue to feature Dr Swan's lecture, in which he went on to discuss research findings of detrimental side-effects of genetically modified organisms. * More information on many of the issues referred to by Dr Swan in his lecture, including analysis of scientific research conducted by both industry and independent researchers, as well as regulatory aspects, may be found on the website of the British science organization EarthOpenSource.org.

[FairfieldLife] Expert in Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture describes dangers of genetically modified food, and presents solutions
Expert in Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture describes dangers of genetically modified food, and presents solutions by Global Good News staff writer * Global Good News 18 January 2013 The creator of an acclaimed course on Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture that he has taught in many countries recently gave an indepth lecture on genetically modified food at MERU in Holland. Dr Peter Swan, an expert in the application of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's knowledge and technologies in agriculture, emphasized the importance of understanding what genetic modification is and how it affects our lives. Much of Dr Swan's lecture was devoted to systematically bringing out details of numerous studies showing the potential for seriously damaging effects of genetically modified (GM) food for human consumption. He detailed claims made by Monsanto and other large biotech companies about GM foods, including promises of their safety, higher crop yields, bigger profits, and improved nutrition—contrasting these with test results from an ever-widening body of research. In the talk Dr Swan showed a short clip from a recently released video, Genetic Roulette, that reports the practises of some biotech executives. It includes interviews, reports, research studies, and the 'monumental exposé' after a lawsuit forced the release by a US federal agency of over 40,000 secret memos on genetically modified organisms. Dr Swan cited reports from the United Nations (UN) and the World Health Organization (WHO) that straightforwardly acknowledge 'ecological agricultural methods' as the solution to the global food shortage problem. With this, the last one-third of Dr Swan's lecture shifted to a brighter picture, giving examples of traditional methods and solutions; although currently not favoured by conventional agriculture, they have been in operation around the world for centuries and are beginning to be implemented more widely again. He presents evidence that these methods of organic farming are far more efficient and cost-effective than those of conventional agriculture, as well as more supportive of the health and vitality of the soil, the plants, the farmer, and the general population. Dr Swan left his listeners on a positive note, taking the topic of solutions to the global problems plaguing agriculture to the deepest level of life, the unified field identified by modern quantum physics as the source of all natural law. >From the perspective of Maharishi Vedic Organic Agriculture, he explained, ultimately our food has its source in the fluctuations of sound within this field of pure intelligence which gives rise to every level of agriculture. This is Maharishi's gift to the field of agriculture, Dr Swan concluded—development of consciousness of the farmer and the consumer through Transcendental Meditation, and enlivenment of total natural law at every stage of growth of the crop. Further articles will feature more about the topics covered in Dr Swan's talk. Copyright © 2013 Global Good News Service
[FairfieldLife] IAEA shifts 47 Japanese reactors . . .
Historic move: IAEA shifts 47 Japanese reactors into 'long-term shutdown' category On 19 January 2013 World Nuclear Industry Status Report wrote : In an unprecedented move, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has shifted 47 Japanese nuclear reactors from the category 'In Operation' to the category 'Long-term Shutdown' (LTS) in its web-based Power Reactor Information System (PRIS). The number of nuclear reactors listed as 'In Operation' in the world thus drops from 437 on 15 January to 390 on 16 January, a level last seen in 1986 and a dramatic step of the IAEA's official statistics in recognizing industrial reality in Japan. This is without doubt a unique revision of world operational nuclear data.
