Leaders of the Global Country of World Peace commented recently on the contribution of Raja John Fagan's* activities over the last 15 years, to the rising demand for food purity and safety around the world.

In Part I, Part II, and Part III of this article, Raja Fagan described how rising coherence in national consciousness in the United States and India, resulting from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's programmes, has created a new awakening within the scientific community, the government, and at the 'grass roots' level to ensure the authenticity, purity, and safety of food, especially with respect to the use of genetically engineered foods.

Raja Peter Warburton, Raja of Great Britain, Bulgaria, and the United Arab Emirates, commented on Raja Fagan's leadership in the area of food safety and purity, pointing out that 'the world stands to benefit hugely from his specific contributions'.

Reviewing the development* of Raja Fagan's role in this area, Raja Peter said he was highly renowned in his field of molecular biology, and 'it was quite a step for a researcher on his level to suddenly make such bold public statements' in 1994, bringing out Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's perspective on the dangers of genetic engineering of food—'that once that level of Nature is tinkered with, those effects would be there forever', Raja Peter said.

This was a great example for everyone of 'how Maharishi would often propose something that was really quite out of the ordinary, and really an extraordinary challenge even for one individual to step outside the routine mould of scientific research, grants, etc, and take this step' that Raja Fagan took at that time.

The result, Raja Peter said, was 'huge, massive worldwide publicity about this issue, and Raja Fagan's career was launched as the leader of food purity on the supreme level—not food purity on some superficial level of testing for chemicals—but on the deepest level, the level at which modern technology is actually creating the greatest threat for the food purity and food security of the whole world.

'It has really been a wonderful thing to watch as the momentum has grown in this area. I see it all the time in Great Britain,' Raja Peter said, '—really influencing the biggest food importers, biggest resellers in the country, the biggest supermarket chains—he is responsible, with Maharishi's guidance at each point, for influencing those biggest retailers of food to ban the inclusion of genetically modified ingredients, and to maintain that for so many years, and to spread the understanding of the need for that worldwide.'

Raja Peter expressed appreciation for Raja Fagan's fulfilling the mission Maharishi had offered, 'taking a really practical and truly dynamic lead in this . . . protecting our future, and the future of all mankind. It really is crucial for the world, that food security and food purity are maintained in the way that his work is determining now.' On behalf of all the Rajas he offered Raja Fagan all possible support for his mission in their domains.

* Raja John Fagan, PhD is Raja of the Global Country of World Peace with special responsibility for food purity and safety, and healthy invincibility, a responsibility entrusted to him by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. He has extensive expertise as a molecular biologist who for more than two decades used recombinant DNA techniques in his own research, for which he received over US$2.5 million in grants from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH). In 1994 Dr Fagan took an ethical stand against germ-line genetic engineering and renounced $1.8 million in further grants. Since that time, Dr Fagan has become a recognized world leader in promoting food purity and safety through Maharishi's programmes.
