Invincible Nepal: An Ancient Vedic Technology for Modern Security Challenges of Nepal

By Lt. Col. Jitendra Jung Karki

Introduction

This article was originally published in a military magazine in Nepal – Shreenath Journal, August 2008, pages 16-20, vol 1. – reprinted with permission

1. Nepal had been a Vedic Country since the establishment and follower of Vedic science since then. Each and every foundation of Nepal was created according to the Law’s of Nature and Vedic science. And only thing we should understand clearly is exploring and adopting vedic concept is a scientific matter, not a religious concept of Hindus only, who have applied it in a religious way.

2. Nepal, the land of Himalayas and Veda, is today facing a great challenge of increasing internal violence, by various groups of insurgents. How do we stop war, prevent terrorism and make our homelands secure? How can we achieve invincibility? Living in peace and perpetual happiness is not only an intrinsic desire, but fervent collective wish of humankind. Will there ever be an end to terrorism, war and conflict? Is there a way to reduce collective stress and create peace? As we can see collective stress is the root cause of all these problems.

What is Invincible Defence?

3. Invincible Defense Technology is a non-lethal, preemptive national defense strategy. It is better that other solutions for a strong military because it prevents enemies from arising, and neutralizes existing enemies. The courageous world leaders who implement Invincible Defense Technology will be remembered. They will be honored for making their nations invincible using a power stronger than any armament.

4. There is a scientific solution for a strong military that is a non-lethal approach to achieve this goal. It is called Invincible Defense Technology. Invincible Defense Technology is the best solution for a strong military due to following reasons:

• Scientifically studied
• Quietly demonstrated in conflict-prone regions
• Non-religious, nonpartisan
• Easy to implement
• The ultimate approach for conducting operations other than war (OOTW).

Why Invincible Defence?

5. Today we are living in a strife-torn world. Terrorism, wars and conflict are prevalent in many parts of the world. Lives are being lost every day. There appears to be no end to rivalries and conflicts between communities, religious groups and nations–big and small. Perhaps. Invincible Defence Technology, drawn from Vedic heritage, is awakening, creating new possibilities. Modern science has validated its effectiveness. It is just a matter of time before all militaries worldwide will deploy Invincible Defense Technology as their first line of defence.

6. The point of Invincible Defense Technology is to prevent an enemy from arising. Without enemies, everyone wins. This is why the technology is invincible. Terrorism cannot be eliminated by destroying the terrorists. Any step in the direction of destruction only helps to create more terrorists. More terrorists only results in more waves of destruction. There is no wisdom in initiating a continuous theme of destruction in the name of protection. Prudence dictates eliminating the underlying cause of terrorism, war and all types of violence—collective social stress.

7. The USA has the largest defence budget in the world. Despite this, it could not prevent the attacks of 11 Sept 01. The humbling of the USA is a grim indicator that continuing to use only conventional, weapons-based approaches will not end negativity and create world peace. The time is ripe to adopt a new approach. As Maharishi says: “Only a new seed will yield a new crop. Only a new philosophy and new efforts based on new knowledge will fulfill the age old dream of the wise for prevention of crime, terrorism and wars and maintenance of world peace on a permanent basis.”

8. Recent discoveries in the domain of quantum physics and human consciousness, reveal that the field of consciousness is far more basic and powerful than the nuclear field. “This field of consciousness-termed the unified field in the language of quantum physics-is millions of times more fundamental and powerful than the nuclear force.

How it works?

9. After Mozambique’s civil war, the economy boomed, and the crime rate decreased. President Alberto Joachim Chissano attributed the war’s demise and these other positive trends largely to new human resource technology he called a “new secret weapon.” He and many other military leaders are convinced that these changes occurred from the implementation of this new technology called vedic defence technology.

10. On 18 April 1999, 200 Serbian troops entered the Prevlaka Peninsular demilitarized zone just 40 kilometers from our Dubrovnik Peace Project hotel. The obvious purpose of this invasion was to expand the war and involve Croatia in the conflict. Shock waves rushed through Croatia. Invincible Croatia The Dubrovnik Peace Project started with 30 Yogic Flyers the same day as the invasion. By the next day there were sufficient Flyers to create coherence for the Dubrovnik/Prevlaka region. The number of Yogic Flyers continued to increase during the 10 days of the Serbian occupation of the Peninsular. By 28 April there were 134 Yogic Flyers.

During nine of the ten days of the Serbian occupation there were enough Flyers at the Dubrovnik Peace Project to create coherence for the region. This coherence in collective consciousness provides an unseen invincible armour of defence against destructive outside influences. The result of this was seen during this 10-day period. Nothing happened. Then suddenly, without any obvious reason, on 28 April the Serbian troops gave up their mission in the Peninsular and withdrew.

11. Above mentioned successful examples clearly indicates of such an “invincible shield” is the Meissner Effect (see figure). It takes place at the quantum level of superconductivity. In a superconductor, the coherent functioning of the electrons spontaneously excludes an external, disruptive magnetic field. This system maintains its impenetrable status because no random or chaotic activity can take place within it. Ordinary electrical conductors are not impenetrable because the random activity of incoherent and disordered electrons allows penetration of an external magnetic field.

On the left, an external magnetic field penetrates an ordinary conductor whose electrons behave in a chaotic or disorderly way.	On the right, the external magnetic field is excluded from the interior of a super-conductor whose electrons function in a coherent collective manner – invincibility.	The Maharishi Effect creates invincible “national armor” that cannot be penetrated by the collective negativity of other countries.

Nepal’s Perspective?

12. Nepal, being a vedic country, where 80% of population is sheltered under vedic culture. Still, Her all government administrations and all the security agencies functions according to vedic calendar. So Nepal can have enough vedic potential and vedic environment to explore the exact significance of vedic science and trade them abroad.

13. Nepal’s foreign polity stands for general and complete disarmament of all weapons of mass destruction including nuclear, chemical, and biological and others. As a party to Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty (NPT) and signatory to Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), Nepal supports the nuclear weapons free zones wherever they are established. Nepal’s foreign policy and defence policy is largely committed for the peaceful world so it will be compatible for Nepal to adopt non- lethal vedic defence polity.

14. Since her joining the United Nations on 14 December 1955, Nepal has reposed her abiding faith in the principles and purposes enshrined in the UN Charter. Nepal attaches great importance to the centrality of the United Nations in the multilateral affairs, especially in the maintenance of international peace and security and in promoting international cooperation for the economic and social development. Promotion of international peace and security assumes paramount importance of the United Nations. Nepal has been consistently supporting the UN efforts in the maintenance of international peace and security through her continuous participation in the UN Peacekeeping operations since 1958. Nepal shares its important contribution in UN for the peaceful world specially troops contribution by nepal army stands fifth by 2008. Nepal army can play a leading role with it’s readymade vedic manpower for crisis management in the conflict area of the world with the priceless and effortless modification of on-going vedic culture.

15. In post insurgency and Transitional period Nepal’s political system is largely affected by the large number of negative influences. Now is the right time to set up the defence policy as Vedic so that it is solely benefited by the Nation at the correct time of Need. However Nepal’s defence and foreign strategy is unknowingly compatible with the Vedic defence strategy in the following senses:

Old Strategies of National Defense	New Strategies of National Defense
Strategy of controlling the enemy on the basis of fear and destruction	Strategy of controlling the enemy on the basis of the power of friendliness and coherence, which destroys enmity
Fear-based defense technology means negativity-based defense—destruction. It is clear that this principle of defense is self-defeating. Accepting death for the sake of defense!!!	Trust-based defense technology means positivity-based defense—enriching to life. This is the self-fulfilling principle of defense; confidence in one’s own level of invincibility
Strategy of destroying the enemy to safeguard the peace and prosperity of one’s own nation	Strategy of destroying enmity in the environment and thereby disallowing an enemy to arise, to safeguard the peace and prosperity of one’s own nation
Strategy of defense: skillful use of dynamism	Strategy of defense: skillful use of silence
Military training was based on the strategy of restless dynamism of action	Military training to be based on the strategy of restful, dynamic silence
Preparedness for war	Victory before war
Readiness to attack in order to defend	No need to defend—indomitable strength in national consciousness stops the birth of an enemy
Military responsible for meeting the danger when it has come	Military responsible for averting the danger before it arises
National safety secured in the stockpiling of powerful weapons of mass destruction	National safety secured by the increase of coherence in national consciousness creating an armor of invincibility for the nation
Defense based on attacking the strength of the enemy	Defense based on attacking the weakness—enmity—the true enemy within both friend and foe
Might is right	Right is might
Political treaties were no assurance for the defense and safety of the nation; the times have witnessed political friendliness today and invasion tomorrow	Perpetual peace among nations on the basis of invincibility of all nations
The age-old responsibility of the military was to raise and maintain the power of destruction	The new responsibility of the military is to raise and maintain higher consciousness for the nation

Conclusion

16. Nepal’s perspective in vedic studies is completely different than other countries and nepal has the capability for not only to explore the vedic concept of defence but also to lead the world with total concept of peace and security with its vedic population and vedic security forces. The hidden secrets in Veda about Nepalese sovereignty and bravery as Gurkha soldiers in the past needs to be researched and explored for the peace and stability in Nepal.

17. Lastly, for defence to be successful and invincible it has to be scientific; and if it has to be scientific, it has to be Vedic. If the study of defence is not supported by the theories of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, etc. Thus defence cannot be scientific. All theories of modern science uphold all disciplines of Vedic science because Vedic science is fundamental to modern science; whatever is Vedic that only is totally scientific.

Abstract:

Stress reduction using the Transcendental Meditation program:
Solution to problems arising from combat stress

Stress-related problems caused by war are not confined to the place and time of battle. Each soldier is part of a larger social fabric that includes family and society. The direct and indirect costs of dealing with these stress-related problems, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), are significant and often the families of soldiers suffer. The Transcendental Meditation program involves a simple, non-religious, psychophysiologic practice demonstrated in over 600 research studies to reduce a wide variety of stress-related problems. A random assignment study of Vietnam veterans, published in the Journal of Counseling and Development, found this program to be effective against PTSD. Instruction in the program, followed by three months of regular practice, significantly reduced eight out of nine measures, including emotional numbness, anxiety, depression, alcohol consumption, insomnia, family problems, and unemployment. Meta-analyses published in peer-reviewed journals provide evidence for superior effectiveness of this program over others in the areas of anxiety reduction, lowering blood pressure, self-development, physiological relaxation, improved psychological outcomes, and decreased use of drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes. In conclusion, research on this program indicates that it produces effects on mind and body that are opposite those of chronic stress.

The issue of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has reached public attention in an unexpected way through the revelations that in the past the military medical establishment has failed on major fronts to provide the very best treatment deserved by military personnel returning from conflict.

The Transcendental Meditation (TM) program is a scientifically-validated cost-effective solution which could be easily and quickly implemented. Please also see the information below:

This article, “Combating PTSD” published in OpEdNews on 23 March 2001, was written by Dr. David Leffler, the Executive Director at the Center for Advanced Military Science (CAMS). It explains that the TM program is a scientifically-verified, time-tested solution to help our military personnel, veterans and their families combat Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Dr. Leffler discusses a new pilot study (under review), Iraq and Afghanistan veterans experienced a 50% drop in PTSD symptoms by the fourth week of TM practice, and greater improvements by two months and three months. This study is summarized in the new book The Resilient Warrior: Healing the Hidden Wounds of War by Jerry Yellin and Dr. Sarina Grosswald.

Lieutenant Dan Burke, US Navy SEAL Teams (Ret.) found the Transcendental Meditation technique to be “tremendously beneficial” during combat operations in Panama while serving with the US Navy SEALS in 1989. On this webpage there is a link to his testimonial and a picture which shows him practicing the TM program in the jungle of Panama.

Dr. Rees gave a presentation on this topic at the Association of Military Surgeons of the U.S. (AMSUS) convention on 12 November 2007. See an original 412 word version of the letter “Meditation Effective PTSD Treatment” by Col. (Dr.) Brian M. Rees and Dr. David R.

Colonel Rees is quoted in Military Officer about a side benefit for military personnel when using the Transcendental Meditation technique. The article describes alternative treatment approaches to combat Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

50% reduction in PTSD symptoms within 4 weeks of Veterans practicing Transcendental Meditation (click on the photo above)

An important point to consider is that scientific research shows that all meditation and relaxation techniques do not necessarily have the same results. See: “Are All Meditations the Same? Comparing the Neural Patterns of Mindfulness Meditation, Tibetan Buddhism Kargyu tradition and the Transcendental Meditation Technique.”

Unlike many other meditation and relaxation techniques the TM program is easy to learn and fun to practice, and extensive research shows that it is more effective and efficient than other relaxation techniques. See “Comparison of Techniques Issue: Are all forms of meditation and relaxation the same?“

A study of 60 male subjects in their 40’s and 50’s found that ultraweak photon emissions were significantly lower at all 12 anatomical locations studied in subjects practicing the Transcendental Meditation technique (TM) and Other Meditation Techniques (OMT= Tao, Zen, Christian, and Hindu Yoga meditations) than in non-meditating controls.

See also this You Tube video (click here) by Dr. Robert Schneider who explains how the Transcendental Meditation program has been shown to be twice as effective as other meditation techniques.

Editor’s update: Veterans of the Iraq/Afghanistan wars showed a 50 percent reduction in their symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), after just eight weeks of practicing the stress-reducing Transcendental Meditation technique, according to a pilot study published in Military Medicine (click here).

LEFFLER – No One Wants The Nobel War Prize – 8-Sep-2008

Most world leaders would be honored to receive a Nobel Peace Prize. Unfortunately, if there were a Nobel War Prize, almost all governments would be eligible. Government leaders worldwide have been approached by eminent scientists and other emissaries. These advocates urged for the establishment of national peace-creating forces to counteract the collective stress that fuels terrorism and war. They advocate a scientific approach to peace called “Invincible Defense Technology.” Today’s worldwide climate of war and terrorism enriches arms dealers and causes heart wrenching misery. Despite the overwhelming volumes of scientific research that validate the effectiveness of this approach, most governments still choose not to adopt this prevention strategy. Claims that there are no alternatives to violence are untrue. Renowned Vedic scholar and physicist Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the leading advocate of this war and terrorism prevention strategy, suspects that many world leaders refuse to adopt it because it is profitable to create fear in order to sell arms. “This is what is happening in Israel, in Northern Ireland, everywhere. Selling arms is a shameful profession. Arms dealers tell defense ministers: ‘Your neighbor has this new fighter plane and that new missile, so you must have them, too, or your security will be jeopardized.’ Even poor countries go deeply in debt purchasing these weapons. It’s shameful for arms sellers to live on the killing of others.”

Maharishi argues that armed forces cannot defend against all enemies. He says, “The military is not competent to defend the country against an enemy that cannot be seen, or against a missile that can come and put the whole society to ashes. The military is only competent to die and kill. And both are a sin: getting oneself killed is a sin, and killing another is a sin. It’s a very ignorant approach to defense. Prevention is the only way to defend the nation, and the only effective prevention is Vedic defence, which prevents the birth of an enemy.”

The primary components of Maharishi’s Vedic system of defense are the Transcendental Meditation (TM) and TM-Sidhi programs. Over 600 studies conducted at 200 research institutes and universities document the positive benefits gained from the twice-daily practice of these programs. This research indicates that all areas of life are affected in a positive way: mind, body, behavior, and the environment. Findings published in leading peer-reviewed journals include: improved work relations, increased creativity and intelligence, increased productivity, and improved health, as well as reduced stress-related diseases, and decreases in terrorism, war and crime.

The TM program was first introduced by Maharishi nearly 50 years ago. Nearly five million people worldwide have learned the simple technique. It involves an effortless and natural process practiced 15 to 20 minutes twice-daily. The TM program can be easily learned by anyone regardless of religious belief, age or education level. When practiced in large groups with its advanced technique, the TM-Sidhi program, societal coherence is generated, reducing negative trends and promoting positive tendencies in society.

Maharishi argues that in their present form, despite humanitarian missions, armed forces have outlived their usefulness: “The times have changed. ‘Defend the nation by killing your enemy’ is an outdated military strategy. It is obsolete. You kill your enemy today and another enemy will kill you tomorrow—and then what is left?”

“Prevention is the only way for defense,” Maharishi says. “Intelligent military thinking dictates that you prevent the birth of an enemy—that you make your enemy into your friend. It will be much easier to make your enemy your friend than it will be to defend yourself against an unseen enemy.” This is why Maharishi also calls his Vedic system of defense “Invincible Defense Technology.” The strategy is very simple—no enemies—no war or terrorism. With no enemies, the military becomes invincible.

Maharishi requests that every country create Prevention Wings of the Military whose primary duty is to practice the TM and TM-Sidhi program. Militaries are already paid to defend their nations. Maharishi urges all governmental leaders to order their militaries to adopt Maharishi’s Invincible Defense Technology immediately. This would demonstrate modern, enlightened thinking. Big sticks are passé. Cutting-edge military defense involves big ideas, not big sticks. The Nobel War Prize is a booby prize, and its high price is no prize at all.
