Summary (excerpt):
Maharishi begins by saying:
It is a great joy to inaugurate the World Assembly on Vedic Science. It is very fortunate for the whole world’s population that this large assembly of enlightened people is going to demonstrate something precious and very much needed today—the effectiveness of the knowledge of natural law and the implications of performance according to natural law for the daily life of everyone in the world.
What awaits the world from Vedic Science is a profound civilization, a civilization where all aspects of life will be ideally lived. Governments will be ideal, industry will be ideal, the economy will be ideal, and the behavior of the people will be ideal. By ideal we mean good for the individual, good for his environment, good for his country, and good for his world. By ideal we mean good today, tomorrow, the next day, the next year, and the next century. The future of life on earth will be ideal, and that means good for everyone.
