Dr Guy-Paul Gagné has been leading the way in presenting Consciousness-Based Education to school principals, teachers, and students across Canada, along with Dr Ashley Deans. Dr Gagné has also produced a 17-minute DVD presentation about new research on brain wave integration and its application in education.

Dr Gagné is well known and esteemed throughout Canada, both as a great leader of the Transcendental Meditation organization, and as a medical doctor and Professor of Medicine at McGill University. He is Canada's National Director of Health for the Global Country of World Peace.

'It is phenomenal, the gift that Dr Gagne has of transforming the understanding of a school principal or faculty,' said Raja Paul Potter, Raja* of Invincible Canada for the Global Country of World Peace, introducing Dr Gagné on 2 September** on the Maharishi Channel. Raja Paul was present with Dr Gagné at recent presentations in Montreal.

Dr Gagné commented that since Raja Paul's visit to Canada in the spring and early summer, 'it seems that all the doors are opening for Consciousness-Based Education'.

Dr Gagné and Raja Paul spoke at a private school with few school problems and a low student-teacher ratio, about new research by Dr Fred Travis on developing a high level of brain integration through Transcendental Meditation. The principal and some teachers have learnt the technique and are planning to introduce the programme to the whole school. Two other schools have now introduced Consciousness-Based Education.

Dr Gagné made several presentations with Dr Travis earlier this year in Montreal and Halifax. They presented live demonstrations of EEG brainwave coherence during Transcendental Meditation, in meetings with government officials in the rehabilitation system and with well-wishers of peace and invincibility for Canada.

During these presentations Dr Gagné realized even more clearly that Dr Travis's research 'is a major breakthrough in science' that will propel widespread recognition of Transcendental Meditation 'as an effective method—if not the only method—for longtitudinally improving brain integration'. Dr Gagné said that this research has important implications not only for brain functioning, but also for human performance—'because there seems to be a direct correlation between brain integration and human performance'.

This relationship is 'very appealing', he said; and for Canada as well as for any other countries, 'it not only makes Transcendental Meditation useful for children with problems; but it can take any child and make him into a champion.'

Global Good News will soon feature a second article about Dr Guy-Paul Gagné's video presentation on Consciousness-Based Education.

* A Raja is the administrator of the cosmic value of life from the absolute, unmanifest field of eternal silence deep within his own consciousness. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi appointed Rajas for the 192 countries of the world, to ensure invincibility for every nation and world peace through their establishing groups of experts in the technologies of Maharishi's Vedic Science.

** Dr Gagné was speaking on the 2 September Maharishi Global Family Chat, which is 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.
