In the United States, Consciousness-Based Education initiatives are moving forward, and a documentary is being created on participants' experiences with the programmes of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Also, support is increasing for establishing a group of 8,000 Maharishi Vedic Pandits at the Global Capital of World Peace in the Brahmasthan (geographic centre) of India.

Dr Robert Roth, Vice-President of the David Lynch Foundation, recently presented with Dr George Rutherford, an expert with long experience in Consciousness-Based Education, to a major non-profit organization that works with several thousand schools and over a million students. The presentation was very warmly received, and they look forward to several schools beginning to implement the Transcendental Meditation Programme, with potentially more to follow.

Speaking on Maharishi Global Family Chat,* Dr Roth, who is also National Director of Expansion for the Global Country of World Peace in the US, also reported on a project he is leading, to record video documentaries of people's experiences with Maharishi's programmes. Those being interviewed include Christian priests, rabbis, business leaders, and the general population.

Dr Howard Settle, co-founder of the Howard and Alice Settle Foundation for an Invincible America, explained the Global Peace Initiative with its goal of raising support for a group of 8,000 Maharishi Vedic Pandits at the Brahmasthan of India. Within weeks of the group being established, he said, we will find all other programmes for peace and prosperity becoming fulfilled, so this is the one thing we have to accomplish above all others.

Dr Howard and Dr Alice Settle are warmly appreciated worldwide by the leaders and members of the Global Country of World Peace for their great devotion, generosity and far-sightedness in dedicating all their resources, creativity, and time to fulfilling Maharishi's goals and taking this unique opportunity to create a peaceful world, said Dr Roth.

* Dr Roth's and Dr Settle's reports were featured on the 20 April 2010 Maharishi Global Family Chat, broadcast daily via Internet webcast on the Maharishi Channel, Channel 3. Podcasts of the daily Global Family Chat (audio track) are also now available for automatic download, via an RSS feed.
