This research gives great hope to those who have the vision of a better quality of life for mankind, and has led to major initiatives in all parts of the world to establish permanent “coherence-creating groups” of people who will practise Transcendental Meditation together on a daily basis in order to wash away the stress which would otherwise accumulate in the atmosphere.
More than 400 peer-reviewed research studies on the TM technique have been published in more than 160 scientific journals. These studies were conducted at more than 200 universities and research centers, including Harvard Medical School, Stanford Medical School, Yale Medical School, UCLA Medical School, and Medical College of Georgia.
