1. (Dr. Hagelin:) Thank you very much, Maharishi. This really is just an extraordinary and exciting offer-- knowledge truly beyond one's imagination, training truly beyond one's imagination--a precious opportunity for all those who aspire for bliss all the time, and to aspire also to transform the quality of life in your surroundings, and to prevent problems and promote peace everywhere. There is a question, Maharishi, which you have perhaps just answered very beautifully, a question on the nature of the Raja training: Last week, Maharishi was describing that a student will never gain Total Knowledge through the drama of modern education, through lectures, memorization, examinations, and grades. Maharishi said that the only way to gain Total Knowledge is by experiencing it in one's own inner consciousness--the Unified Field. But what about gaining the parts of knowledge? Are lectures and books still required to gain specific knowledge of administration, such as health, education, defense, the economy? Or are all these details available to the student in the silence of his consciousness?
2. Maharishi: All these details are available in the consciousness of the expert. He thinks, and the thought is carried on to the target of thinking and produces the effect.
3. Two small boys, Luv and Kush created a miracle, they flattened an entire army. When their guru heard that, they told him, that they had not killed the army, only put them to sleep. They had such command of natural law that they could achieve their objective without harming anyone. They had this command of natural law because their awareness was a field of all possibilities. That is the awareness that is running the whole universe.
4. The natural impulse to expand from point to infinity is the nature of life. It is called evolution. By knowing it, one can make everything and everyone evolutionary all the time. Knowing it properly means being it, knowing by being.
5. Yatinam brahma bhavati sarathih. Someone who is a yati, who is completely retired from the field of dynamism, the Creator becomes his charioteer. It is the Creator who created creation from what He remembered about the past creation, from the memory. To put the memory to really thrive again is the act of the Creator.
6. Someone who is transcendental is on that level of the Creator, wherefrom he can create by thought. That is the awareness of the Raja; that is the awareness of the administrator. It is the competence that rules.
7. There is no mistake, and there is no punishment in this competent administration. By nature one does only right thing. There is a complete philosophy of perfection.
8. Normal life of man should be aham brahmasmmi, "I am totality." That means life in terms of total knowledge, in terms of capability of doing everything. That means everyone and everything will be on a level of satisfaction. There'll be no disappointments; there'll be no failures; there will be no wrongs anywhere in one's surrounding.
9. Here is an open challenge for everyone to be invincible on his individual level and on the level of the collective value of his individuality, which is cosmic.
