According to the article, what percentage of a population practicing Transcendental Meditation™ is suggested to create measurable societal peace?
1 per centThe article discusses the 'Maharishi Effect,' a scientifically studied phenomenon where approximately 1% of a population practicing group meditation, particularly the Transcendental Meditation technique, leads to significant improvements in social indices. These include reduced crime rates, lower domestic violence, fewer suicides, and decreased accident rates. The effect is amplified when practiced in groups, with benefits multiplying based on the square of the number of participants. This concept, rooted in Vedic literature, has been validated through research from the 1970s and 1980s. For India, this would require around 4,000 meditators at the Brahmasthan to influence the entire nation.
