During Maharishi’s Global Press Conference on 25 January 2006 at MERU in Holland, Dr David Lynch was introduced by the Prime Minister of the Global Country of World Peace, Dr Bevan Morris. Dr Lynch spoke about his experience with Transcendental Meditation and Maharishi’s contribution to human life and education in the world.
First Maharishi commented about Dr Lynch that he ‘is a hero of our time. He is a new sunshine in the diminishing darkness of the night. He is a bright sunshine for the new world to come and remain all the time, permanently, in the light of enlightenment. Dr Lynch is the hero of our time. . . .
‘He has created a big stir in the psychology of the whole of the United States. In the past one, two months, he quickly traveled, inviting the youth of USA, and opened a new gate of world leadership for them by rising to coherence and creating this in world consciousness.’
Speaking about his tour for Consciousness-Based Education across the United States and in countries of Europe with Dr John Hagelin and Dr Fred Travis, ‘all I do is tell people what I have learnt from Maharishi,’ Dr Lynch said, responding to Maharishi’s comments.
‘[I tell them] that there is an ocean of pure consciousness within every human being, and that Maharishi’s very beautiful, easy to do, yet supremely profound technique will allow any human being to dive within and experience that ocean of pure consciousness.’
Dr Lynch said that when people hear that they have a treasury in their basement [their own Transcendental Consciousness], many of them become very happy about this and sense the truth of it.
‘One girl I met after the talk at New York University said she had been waiting her whole life to hear this,’ Dr Lynch continued. ‘People are in trouble out there, and they do not hear the good news. This is the best news they can hear. And many of them have, as I said before, the ears to hear.’
He thanked Maharishi for this knowledge ‘that transforms individual life and also transforms the life of the world to real peace, the absence of negativity.
‘These Universities of Peace that we are talking about are both Consciousness-Based Education and peace-creating groups in one place. . . .’
Dr Lynch expressed his feeling that, because of Maharishi’s work in the world night and day for fifty years, the atmosphere is much softer now than it was before.
‘It is much softer now,’ Dr Lynch emphasized, ‘and many more people are [coming] forward and finding an inner truth. It rings a bell, this thing, in people. They are listening. I feel that, as Maharishi has said, the darkness is diminishing. So it is very beautiful.’
Dr Lynch also thanked Dr Bobby Roth, National Director for Expansion for the Transcendental Meditation organization in the United States for his superb organization of the tour, which ‘has turned out to be pretty special, bringing this knowledge to so many students,’ Dr Lynch said.
‘It was very important. I think Maharishi’s knowledge and the experience that the knowledge gives will spread and spread and spread.
‘The team [on the tour] was so filled with bliss and filled with knowledge. . . . Everybody enjoyed themselves and will have fond memories of these tours.’
Addressing Maharishi directly, Dr Lynch said, ‘Everywhere, Maharishi, you have brought so much bliss. As Maharishi teaches, mankind was not made to suffer. Bliss is our nature.’
