The Magic of Meditation
I'd like to raise $7 billion! That's my goal. I'm looking for all the help I can get--small donations, large donations.
How is raising money for the foundation different from raising it for a movie?
I would ask anybody [for the foundation]. When I raise money for a film, usually I go to a film company I like. This way I have to go to many sources.
Why do this now?
It was a very private thing to me. One thing I loved about Transcendental Meditation is it's a private thing--you just add it to your life, and go about your business. [But] I thought I've got to do my part and make this happen. It's absolutely possible to have peace on earth. People usually think peace is about the absence of war. But real peace is about the absence of negativity. You don't bring peace by killing people. You bring enemies by killing people. This is real peace, it's right there.
How do you feel about the war in Iraq? Do they need some meditation over there?

Comment: Ah, YES! The GREAT FEAR of cultism!! Similar to every radical preacher telling us what to believe, how to believe it, and why we should be very AFRAID to deviate from THEIR thinking without giving them money, right? Let's see, who do we blame? We could blame Martin Luther, Pastor HAGEE, Fathe Flager, Jerimiah Wright, G.W. Bush, Ron Parsley, Mohammed, Jesus Christ --- YES HE was a RADICAL for His time also!! Read up on it.
But to condemne something that has been around 4 times longer than Christianity, that has worked for millions of people in various forms, and cultures, to deny theright of children to be at peace with themselves and confront the STRESS of growing up and learning at the same time---this is ROVIAN, Republican, and fascvist thinking.
Understand this: TM is not a cult, any more than is Christianity. It works, this is an established fact; ask any hypnotherapist. It makes every one aware of their weak points as well as their strong points (therefore able to create remedies). It also will help children take care of their parents in GRATITUDE, when parents grow too old to help themselves.
Now, if you will kindly excuse me, I have some GI's to take care of -- they need something to believe in, since their govermnent abandonded them....
