CREATING A HAPPY WORLD

Dear Reader,
This may be the most important book you will ever read and don't worry; the book is both readable and rigorous. It summarizes 20 peer-reviewed studies that show how practice of the Transcendental Meditation® technique and its advanced programs, either by a sufficient number of individuals on their own or a sufficient number in groups, creates an influence of coherence and harmony in the collective consciousness of a community, a nation or even the world as indicated by decreases in crime and increased cooperation between nations.
In a world of global unease and huge social transformation, nothing is more important than implementation of a program such as is presented in An Antidote to Violence. I hope by the end of reading the book, you will feel that there is hope that humanity can start to live in a peaceful and tolerant world.
Warmly,
Patricia Saunders
