Posted by Ignore the doomsayers, things are getting better
Doomsaying seems to be rather popular at the moment with one commentator after another lining up to predict the end of Britain. To take just one example, prominent journalist and best-selling author Peter Hitchins, thinks Britain is finished. He sees the UK suffering an omni-crisis of intractable problems. Not least of which are the extent of government borrowing, a ruined industrial capacity and trashed education system preventing recovery, and a politicised police force and judicial system.
Many commentators, from both right and left, would add to his inventory of horrors: Ruinously high energy prices, oppressive taxation, failing public services, growing inequalities, excess mortality rates, uncontrolled mass immigration, an unsustainable welfare budget, looming ecological catastrophe and on and on.
Admittedly, it could seem rather depressing. So why do I think things are getting better?
We are not in a doom loop things are getting better
Despite all the signs that we are in some sort of eternal doom loop, believe it or not we can ignore the doomsayers, things are getting better. You see, ironically a lot of the symptoms of decline, are simply signs of the old order collapsing. Meanwhile, something new and remarkable is gearing up to replace it. In fact I would add that the process of recovery is already well underway.
Behind the scenes of apparent decline and degeneration a momentous spiritual revival is in motion. You may not be aware of it. But that is because the revival is meticulously, if unwittingly, hidden from view. Our leaders, media and academia simply can’t see the truth and so can’t show it to us. But if you know what to look for, you can see that this revival has already gained sufficient momentum that it is probably unstoppable.
Mass implementation of proven spiritual technologies
What I am talking about is the mass implementation of certain proven spiritual technologies. These are quietly helping to raise the ‘collective consciousness’ of entire nations. And the effect is already percolating into the global social system.
I fully accept, that a social and economic recovery through a spiritual technology might seem completely out of this world. But, I would argue that a large part of that initial feeling of disbelief, is really due to the whole idea being so unfamiliar. Also, a concept like this conflicts directly with our inherited belief system. Hence confirmation bias kicks in and, even if presented with the proof, we can’t see it.
But perhaps it is fair to add that your unfamiliarity is also due to the evidence of a spiritual revival being suppressed. For the last fifty years, unwittingly or otherwise, the establishment authorities, academia and the media have misunderstood, distorted, ignored or ridiculed the idea of a spiritual revival as a powerful social driver. So the idea rarely gets an airing.
Also of course, what is driving the revival, is for the most part unseen and hidden away from view anyway. What I mean by this is that the technology I am referring to is a restoration of deep meditation from the ancient Vedic culture. Specifically, a few large groups of expert meditators are forming, mostly in India, but also in Mexico and parts of South America. Their primary objective is to create a social phase transition and usher in an age of world peace and enlightenment. Due to their enormous size, these groups are already having a quiet impact on world consciousness.
Amazing to think that this is all achieved simply by people sitting in a room with their eyes shut.
The quantum mechanics of change
How does this work?
Unlike previous spiritual revivals, this one is based on some very old and also some very new science.
In essence we have known for a while that certain types of deep meditation reduce stress. Significantly, it is also understood that whilst reducing stress, these techniques create highly coherent human brain functioning for the individual meditator. Primarily, I am referring to the technique of Transcendental Meditation (TM).
Researchers have documented the effects of TM extensively elsewhere so I don’t wish to take up space on this aspect. But you can check out the link to the What is Transcendental Meditation page and read some of the fascinating research. However in this context, the significance of less stress and more coherent brain functioning is that in this rather sublime brain state, TM practitioners improve access to their higher human faculties. I am not just referring to qualities such as compassion, empathy, intuition and patience. Meditators also tend to benefit from improved rational thinking, balanced left and right brain hemispheres, field independence, and creativity.
As a result of this fairly comprehensive improved brain functioning, meditators live more orderly, productive, and emotionally satisfying lives.
OK, so as I said researchers have recognised these benefits for a while now. However, another astounding finding has also emerged. And that is that such meditators somehow broadcast their brain wave coherence onto other human brains as well. This transmission happens spontaneously and without verbal or other physical contact. The effect can occur across large distances and without the beneficiaries even knowing it is happening to them.
This may be startling news to you, so I will try a brief explanation.
Consciousness is the root of all creation
During the practice of Transcendental Meditation we transcend our thoughts and senses. The theory is that whilst transcending we access an underlying field of intelligence. This is known by quantum field theorists as the Unified Field of All the Laws of Nature.
In other words the physicists see this as the basis of the whole material universe. As such they also understand this to be a field of pure consciousness, and similarly as a field of infinite creative intelligence. The fundamental theory is that during the process of evolution, every aspect of the universe including the human body and human nervous system emerges from this unified field of consciousness.
This consciousness is therefore shared by everyone on earth. Hence when we transcend during meditation we are connecting with everyone else in creation in a very intimate way through the medium of the collective consciousness.
The physiological impact on other people may be diluted. Even so, the upshot is that when people are in the vicinity of a transcending meditator, they too tend to have easier access to their higher faculties. And the culmination of that improved brain functioning is that their lives also tend to become more orderly, productive and emotionally satisfying.
The research backs the theory
So that is the theory. Where is the evidence?
The telling point is that wherever we see this consciousness technology at work in society, we also see these improved individual qualities reflected in social or economic statistics.
As an example lets take a key indicator of a stressed society – a high crime rate. Now guess what, the research shows that when there are sufficient meditators in a society we find less crime, particularly violent crime and murders.
By the way, the research is not all about crime. Researchers have found that the affected society tends to experience a range of other measurable improvements to Quality-of-Life statistics. These include less accidents, less disease, higher economic growth, lower unemployment and lower inflation.
TM has a generally healing effect on the whole of society
In effect then, practitioners of Transcendental Meditation have a generally healing effect on the whole of society. And this is just by virtue of the fact they are meditating.
But it gets even better than that. When these meditators carryout their practice in a group their effect on society grows exponentially.
I appreciate that, if you have not heard about this before, it all sounds rather bizarre. But, I must emphasize that there is extensive research to back-up this proposition. Although, as I have already mentioned, it is studiously ignored by the usual suspects.
Amazingly, the research is so reliable that we can predict with mathematical accuracy how many meditators are needed to create a positive shift in the well-being of any given population. Furthermore, when practiced in groups, we can predict quite accurately the dramatic expansion in both the distance and number of people influenced by the meditators.
What this means in effect is that we now know that creating a measurable shift in the collective consciousness of a nation requires little more than 1% of the population to be doing Transcendental Meditation on a daily basis. We call this the Maharishi Effect by the way. The reason being that it was Maharishi Mahesh Yogi the founder of TM teaching in the West, who first advocated the idea. He spent the best part of fifty years working to create the effect.
One large group of meditators is enough to create world peace
As mentioned above, when practiced in groups using more advanced techniques of TM, we see an even more marked influence. Researchers discern measurable shifts in the collective consciousness when the group numbers reach the square root of 1% of the population. They have dubbed this multiplied effect on group consciousness as Super Radiance.
All this means that the headline news is, we only need a tiny handful of meditators to precipitate a profound shift in the destiny of a society.
When we broaden our focus to world peace rather than national or community improvements, the prospects become even more exciting. All we need to create sustainable world peace is about 8,000 advanced meditators placed in one group. Although they do need to be meditating all at the same time twice a day every day of the year. Miraculous or what?
Seven year research study in the USA
And the proof?
Well, there is lots of it. But perhaps the most recent example is an experiment carried out in the USA from 2007 to 2014. In this study – The Invincible America Assembly (IAA), comprised 1,800 or so advanced meditators. Thus the group size was big enough to reach Super Radiance i.e., improve the brain wave coherence for the whole of the USA. Basically, the group meditated together twice a day, every day for the six-year period.
You can see the results plotted on the graph in terms of the USA murder rate. This is expressed as the number of deaths per 100,000 people.
As you can see, the green bars depict a significant decline in the murder rate during the years of the IAA experiment. When the group disbanded there was a gradual reversion back to near the previous levels.
Interestingly, we also see a jump in the murder rate during the two lockdown years. There is a reason for this. Unfortunately, due to social distancing rules all group meditation was prohibited. Predictably, this led to a jump in societal stress and therefore crime levels. The one benefit was that the prohibition gave the researchers an even more powerful ‘control’ period as a comparison.
Finally, from 2022 onward we see this government provoked increase in murders, suddenly reversed at the start of the current initiative for global world peace.
Development of several world peace groups is underway
Since 2022, the organizers behind this current initiative, the “Founders for World Peace” have trained something like 750,000 meditators, of which 350,000 have become advanced meditators. As a result of this magnificent effort, there are now several groups of 10,000 specialist meditators under development.
Due to this global influence, the level of homicide in the USA is currently lower than achieved even during the Invincible America Assembly. But this decline in murder is not just confined to the USA. Since the start of the global initiative, reduced homicides have become a worldwide phenomenon.
For instance, in Mexico the homicide rate is 48% down since 2024, in England and Wales, homicide rates are at their lowest levels since 1977. In France, Germany, Italy and Spain murder rates are down by between 30 – 50% since the 1990s.
Widening the scope a little to intrastate violence in general ACLED (The Armed Conflict Location & Event Data project) reports that there has been a remarkable decline of 48.8% in violent events in the ten most violent countries in the world and a staggering 85% decline in intrastate violence in the three most violent countries since October 2023.
But there is a lot more to come.
World Super Radiance is the immediate goal
At the point when the first large meditating group becomes fully populated with 10,000 advanced meditators, they will create Super Radiance for the whole world. The result will be a paradigm shifting global impact.
How can we be sure of this? Well, funnily enough it has happened before, if only briefly.
The last time we had a Super Radiance group big enough for a global impact was in the years 1989 – 1993. That is when the Warsaw Pact suddenly imploded, the Soviet Union unexpectedly collapsed, the cold war ended, the South African apartheid regime dissolved, and the 25-year Mozambique war came to a peaceful end. All this without a shot being fired.
Unfortunately, this global group disbanded shortly afterwards. The Founders of World Peace are setting up the new groups with the aim of making them a permanent feature capable of maintaining global Super Radiance on an ongoing basis.
Check out the research
If your confirmation bias hasn’t prevented you from reading this far, please check out the link to my article about brain coherence radiating across a population. The study describes changes to the brain wave coherence of people 1,100 miles away from a large meditating group.
You can also read an article on the first world peace project that ended the cold war.
Anyway, I hope the article explains my sunny optimism. The old order is collapsing as more and more people experience higher brain functioning due to the impact of the large groups of meditators in India and elsewhere. As a direct result, QOL statistics across the globe are already depicting a positive shift. As the groups grow in size, increased numbers of people will simply not want to put up with the type of low-resolution thinking typified by our government establishments. These politicians and civil servants are either going to have to up their game, or move on.
At the same time, improved global coherence means ever larger numbers of people are quietly more confident and more capable of running their own lives efficiently, productively and honestly. As the revival strengthens people are simply throwing off the yoke of lies, ignorance and control that currently surrounds us all and are quietly living their lives as they should be lived – prosperously in harmony with others and in harmony with nature.
