Yoga Sutra and World Peace

Abstract

empirical research showing that transcending together creates a laser beam like coherence in the Yoga Sutra is an ancient Vedic text that provides a collective consciousness that destroys all negative comprehensive manifold path for achieving union with tendencies (Maharishi 1995; Orme-Johnson et al.Supreme Consciousness.It also states that coherence in 1983; Hagelin et al., 1998; Dilbeck and collective consciousness can counter hostile tendencies.This is achieved by trained meditators transcending Cavennaugh, 2017).The world needs to make only together.Dozens of research publications have modest investments in these techniques of documented large-scale proactive experiments where transcendence to make the world peaceful.small groups of trained meditators trained in This paper will describe the idea of Consciousness Transcendental Meditation created a Super-Radiance as the self-referral supreme transcendental reality Effect that lowered crime rates and improved quality of from a Vedic perspective.Key evidence from life measures.Governments and international bodies quantum physics research will be shown to can choose to create world peace through investment in support this idea.It will then present Yoga Sutra, a training in technologies of transcendence.branch of the Vedas, as an 8-fold path to unite with Keywords: Yoga, Veda, Transcendence, that Consciousness.The nature of human Collective Consciousness, Super-Radiance, development through transcendence will be Quantum field theory, World Peace described.Finally, the paper will share select I.

Relevant Concepts of the Study Integral Theory as a key framework. Gelot (2018)A. Consciousness speaks about reclaiming the primacy of the Vedas (literally means knowledge) is said to transcendent in creating the common ground for codify the eternal total natural laws of the deep peace, drawing on teachings from constitution of the universe.Vedas give primacy Christianity.We agree with both.Creating to Consciousness: Consciousness is all there is.positive peace requires creating peace at the Vedas describe the reality at the subtle and individual level, as well as having the moral unmanifest transcendent levels."Truth is one", imagination to create peace at the collective level says Rig Veda, "it is expressed in many ways".All (Lederach, 2005).Transcending regularly to matter is a manifestation of Pure Consciousness connect with the Transcendent or Consciousness which is an absolute, self-referral Totality that can creates deep inner peace and bliss at the individual express itself in an infinite number of ways at the level.There is an abundance

activity, the accomplishments are manifest itself in the form of a hard, brown thorn, not satisfying and the fulfilment of life is not as also a soft beautiful pink flower.It is the nature gained.So it is the art of Being while thinking that of the sap to manifest itself into any number of is the basis of all accomplishments and fulfilment visible things.Take the example of the seed and in

primary and everything emerges completely hollow.It is the unmanifest potential as a manifestation of consciousness. in the seed that can manifest itself into a huge tree.John Hagelin, CERN physicist and expert on Consciousness is conscious of itself.In the relative string theory and the originator of the concept of space, Consciousness is an agglomeration of the Unified Field theory says: "The unified field of all subject (that which is conscious), the object (about the laws of nature is a non-material, selfwhich one is conscious), and verb (process of interacting, self-aware, dynamic field of being conscious).It is simultaneously the knower, intelligence, which is equivalent to saying that it is the known, and the process of knowing.Every one a field of universal consciousness.It has all the of us is a manifestation of the field of fundamental characteristics of consciousness."Consciousness and can potentially tap into all its Richard Dawkins says, "The human mind is a powers.All the branches of Veda have been wanton storyteller and, even more, a profligate shown to have an exact correlation with the seeker after patterns.We see faces in clouds, and structure of human
