8,000 Maharishi Vedic Pandits at the Global Capital of World Peace in the Center of India:
We invite you to support this historic project to assemble 8,000 specially trained Vedic pandits in the geographic center of India to create global affluence and permanent world peace


 
If you would like to show your appreciation for all the work and dedication which has gone into this website, we invite you to click here or on any of the above pictures for information on how to make a financial contribution — through the Brahmananda Saraswati Foundation — to the historic project of assembling 8000 specially trained Vedic pandits in the geographic center of India to create global affluence and permanent world peace. Your contribution will help to quickly establish this group of 8000 Peace-Professional, Maharishi Vedic Pandits in the Brahmasthan of India. Through their daily performance of Transcendental Meditation, Yogic Flying and Vedic Yagya's, several thousand Maharishi Vedic Pandits at the Brahmasthan are already radiating an irreversible influence of peace, positivity and affluence to the whole world family. The Brahmananda Saraswati Foundation has the responsibility for funding the project and for creating an endowment that will ensure its perpetual support. This includes managing a worldwide fundraising program, receiving donations, and advising on the investment of the endowment fund.
If you would like more information on this historic project, please click here to view several videos on the project. The first video describes how: 1) two powerful technologies of consciousness from the ancient Vedic Tradition of knowledge — the scientific practices of Yogic Flying and Yagya — have been completely revived by His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi; and 2) how large groups of Vedic pandits, the world peace professionals of India, have been trained in and are using these technologies of consciousness to create a permanent state of World Peace. Modern science has established that a group of 8,000 expertly trained world peace professionals, using unified field based technologies of consciousness, can create permanent and lasting peace in the world. The second video uses principles of modern science to explain how the technologies of consciousness create peace for the entire world — from the level of the unified field of natural law and human consciousness — by creating coherence in the neurophysiology of the human brain and in the extended environment. The third video describes the progress in assembling a large group of world peace professionals — Maharishi Vedic Pandits — at the Brahmasthan of India. Tens of thousands of Vedic pandits from the traditional families of India are being trained and fully supported, so that they can be full-time world peace creating professionals. Working with many of the greatest Vedic scholars and teachers of India, His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi has restored the program for training Vedic Pandits to the highest standards of purity and effectiveness. The Vedic Pandits' routine of life is designed to develop the full potential (enlightenment) of the pandit and complete wisdom of life through the practice of the technologies of consciousness and the study of Ved and Vedic literature. The fourth video provides a report on the construction of the Global Capital of World Peace — a master planned city for 8,000 and eventually 16,000 world peace professionals — that is being built, according to the principles of Vedic architecture in the center or Brahmasthan of India. The Brahmasthan or geographic center point of India is the center of Natural Law for India and the world. Establishing the Global Capital of World Peace at this location will maximize the peace creating influence created by the Vedic pandits.
The two photos of the Brahmasthan shown above reveal only a small portion of the vast facility that has been constructed at this location in the heart of India, in a rural setting of great beauty, purity and profound silence. The atmosphere in this holy place is like no where else on Earth. It is a home for the Maharishi Vedic Pandits, who are specially trained experts in the Peace Technologies of the Unified Field. Their admirable profession is to create a powerful influence of peace and positivity for the whole world. For thousands of years the great Vedic Families of India have maintained a tradition of Vedic recitation to create balance, harmony and progress for all society.
Here are two short video slideshows of the Vedic Pandits at the Brahmasthan of India, which will give you a better idea of the vast size, scope, and historic nature of this project:
