Good point. Therefore, to generate a higher world consciousness, you must gather (pay) 10,000 Western secularists trained in yogic flying, which is what I have always thought was the way to go, even though maybe too impractical. I think group yogic flying is more powerful than pundits and yagyas or sthaptyavedic peace palaces. OffWorld OffWorld
