Infinite variety of Creation comes from nothingness - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

1. (Dr. Hagelin:) Thank you very much, Maharishi; that answer was very clear, irrefutable, and compelling. There are some questions, Maharishi, on these deep principles of how human awareness can access and utilize total Natural Law. This is a question on a comment of Maharishi's from last week: Last week, Maharishi said that Rajas were being trained to "utilize the energy and intelligence of the Unified Field in their every thought, speech, and action." My question is this: How can a mere impulse of human thought utilize the inconceivable energy and intelligence of the Unified Field that creates billions of suns, moons, and planets in the universe? And how could the physical structure of the tiny human brain sustain such a cosmic experience?

2. Maharishi: It's a very genuine question; how can the nothingness of the sap express itself in the huge variety of leaves and flowers and fruits of the tree? Innumerable laws of nature governing all the different aspects of the expression of the tree are all centered in one hollowness of the seed, which is abstract, nothingness. All variety and multiplicity sprouts from the nothingness of the seed.

3. There is an abstract unmanifest field, called the Unified Field at the basis of creation. This field has been located by physics, chemistry, physiology and mathematics. Mathematics shows that the number systems come from zero.

4. Like the thought of mango gives rise to the huge activity of going out and searching for a good mango at shop after shop, activity has its basis in memory.

5. From one source, everything begins. Solar systems, galaxies, and so many millions and billions of suns begin from this one little source. Here is the secret of rising to mastery of total Natural Law: This little brain is the central point from where awareness can be infinitely expanded to control, command, and make use of the infinite creative intelligence of total Natural Law commanding everything in the universe.

6. One little hole in the center of the lens and you see the whole panorama on the other side. Like that, one can be the commander of infinite creative intelligence of natural law.

7. Vedic education has been forgotten, and now with the grace of Guru Dev, the seed is there. It has to be nourished, recovered, and made use of.

8. Presidents and prime ministers are ignorant of the duties and responsibilities of their profession. They can have total knowledge. If they do not take advantage of this knowledge they will be hooted out of office.

9. 8000 professional peace makers should be employed. They will be creators of a new world. It's a delight to offer invincibility to every government.

10. Democracy with its competing parties is a very bad system of administration.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi started teaching Transcendental Meditation in 1957.
