Coherence rising in world consciousness: Summary of last week's positive trends
by US Peace Government Media Team Global Country of World Peace 26 August 2005 Just over four months ago, Maharishi launched the first stage of his global peace programme to purify world consciousness and prepare the way for Heaven on EarthSat Yuga. Maharishi announced that he had established growing numbers of Vedic Pandits in India, whose daily performance of Yogic Flying and Yagya would create coherence in the collective consciousness of India. With the rise of coherence, Maharishi said, there would be a corresponding rise of positivity and harmony within India, and, increasingly, throughout the region and the world. It is clear that Maharishi's programme has produced its intended peaceful effect, as there is an unmistakable trend towards reduced conflict and increasing friendliness and harmony throughout the worldin particular, in the former major hotspotsor nuclear flashpointsaround the globe. This week, in Asia, we continue to see the strongest influence of coherence created by the Vedic Pandits in India. India and Pakistan are continuing in their steady march towards peace, as are China and Taiwan. And what would have been unimaginable even a few months agothe crisis over North Korea's repeated threats to test and use nuclear weapons is abating as coherence rises in the Korean peninsula, and friendliness replaces 50 years of bitter rivalry. Reuters: Koreas; Warming ties between old foes Newsweek: Extraordinary relationship between the two Koreas 'This is an extraordinary moment in the relationship between the two Koreas. This week, for the first time since 1945, North and South Koreans jointly commemorated their liberation from Japanese colonizers at the end of World War II in Seoul. The North Korean delegation visited the South Korean Parliament, another first. The two countries also staged a joint cultural event where 50,000 spectators chanted, ''Unified Korea, Unified Korea''. The lovefest doesn't stop there. Trade is reaching new heights. And cooperation across the demilitarized zone is proceeding at dizzying speed.' Reuters: South, North Korea reach agreement in farm talks A publication from South Korea called Joongang Ilbo published an article with the headline: South Korea's opinion of North improves dramatically. The New York Times: N. Korea opening door to tourists The biggest stumbling block to a peaceful resolution to the North Korean nuclear standoff has been the North's stubborn determination to pursue the development of nuclear weapons against the wishes and pleas of the entire world community. Now, suddenly and unexpectedly, the North appears to be sending a message of accomodation: The Washington Post: N. Korea may be willing to drop nuke plan 'North Korea apparently is willing to abandon its nuclear weapons programs, with a breakthrough possible in the current round of international talks, South Korea's foreign minister said this week.' And finally, this headline in The Washington Post, utterly inconceivable just a few months ago, reads: Nations make good progress in N. Korea talks 'The drive for a six-nation agreement to end North Korea's nuclear weapons program is quite unexpectedly picking up speed.' The rise of coherence in the collective consciousness of the Asian region has brought an end to more than 30 years of bloody fighting between the Indonesian government and Aceh rebels. This week, for the first time, Aceh celebrated Indonesia's Independence Day. Islam Online covered the story with an article entitled: Aceh Celebrates Indonesia's Independence Day 'Two days after signing the peace agreement with the Indonesian government, Acehnese marked Indonesia's Independence Day with the Indonesian government with gala festivities and cultural celebrations. Indonesian flags were hoisted in front of Acehnese homes, marking the 60th anniversary of Indonesia's independence from former colonial power The Netherlands.' Malaysian National News Agency reported: Aceh peace deal has positive impact on Malaysia 'The signing of the Aceh peace accord in Helsinki on Monday not only puts an end to almost 30 years of bloodshed in the Indonesian special province but also has significant impacts on Malaysia, its closest neighbour. The cessation of the arms struggle by the separatist group, Free Aceh Movement or GAM, whose members are now about to rejoin the civil society, hopefully will bring lasting peace to Aceh and, more importantly, open up a whole new horizon in Malaysia-Indonesia bilateral relations.' The light of coherence radiating from India is continuing to create signs of dawning peace in the Middle East, where the evacuation of Israel from the Gaza, after 38 years of occupation, has proceeded with totally unexpected speed and peace. BBC: Positive signs in Gaza'The evacuation of settlements is going faster and more smoothly than the Israeli government dared to hope.' CNN: Gaza evacuations peaceful'Israel on Sunday evacuated three Gaza settlements without a single violent incident.' The Independent (UK): Last of the settlers leave without a fight Each week we see how the rise of world consciousness is bringing peace to war-torn areas. And each week we also see how the rise of coherence is bringing to an end outdated principles of administration. This week, we see the growing recognition of the failures of democracyhow it divides a nation against itself, how a democratic government can easily be bought off by special economic interests, and how it fails to deliver on its promise to bring a better quality of life to the people. The false allure of democracy, once tantalizing to developing nations, is fading fast. The Wall Street Journal: Arab world grows indifferent to democracy Finance 24: Democracy a disaster for South Africa poor 'South Africa's transition to democracy over the last decade has been a disaster for the country's poor,' Cosatu Western Cape secretary Tony Ehrenreich said this week. 'Economically, our democratic government has overseen a disaster40% of our people are unemployed, and the inequalities between the rich and the poor have grown rapidly...' The National Post, a Canadian publication: Latin Americans losing faith in democracy. The world's waking up to the hazards of democracy is a sudden and unexpected development in world consciousness. Over the past four months of Maharishi's global peace programme, one can only shake one's head in utter amazement at how dramatically the world has changed since Maharishi launched his global peace programme just a short time ago. Consider for a moment that: - Nearly 60 years of hostilities between India and Pakistanhostilities that instigated 3 wars and brought the world to the brink of nuclear warare suddenly and unexpectedly being resolved, - Nearly 60 years of hostilities between China and Taiwan that also fuelled threats of nuclear war are suddenly and unexpectedly being resolved, - Over 50 years of tensions between North and South Korea that also threatened to break out into a nuclear war are suddenly and unexpectedly being resolved, And where tensions still remain, we are seeing a sudden and unexpected progress towards peace. - After 38 years of occupation, which fuelled countless terrorist acts, the Israeli government has peacefully left the Gaza without a major violent actsuddenly and unexpectedly giving rise to hopes of a real peace in this embattled, war-torn area of the world. All of these sudden and unexpected developments have taken place at the same time, during the same four-month windowand for the same reasonthe rise of coherence in world consciousness brought about by Maharishi's Vedic Pandits in India who are enlivening Total Natural Lawthe Constitution of the Universe, the Vedain world consciousness and thereby bringing the life of every individual and every nation spontaneously into harmony with Natural Law. What we are seeing today in the news is just the beginning. From today onward, week after week, and month after month, the world press will be fortunate to continue to report on the rise of coherence in world consciousnessand with that the life of every individual will rise in enlightenment, the life of every nation will rise in invincibility, and the whole world family will rise to enjoy Heaven on EarthSat Yuga.
