The nothingness in the hollowness of the banyan seed expresses itself in the sprouting and the growth of all the leaves, branches, flowers and fruits of the whole tree. This unmanifest field of nothingness rules.
(Dr. Hagelin:) Thank you very much, Maharishi.
1. There are a couple of questions on the deep principles of Maharishi's administration through Natural Law. I think these two questions are almost the same, and I think I'll read them both as one. The first question is called "Ruling from Nothingness": During a recent World Peace Parliament, Maharishi described the Constitution of the Universe as an unmanifest field of nothingness that is beyond the boundaries space and time, and yet, he said, it rules the infinite, ever-expanding manifest universe.
What is the link that allows a field that is beyond space and time to govern a world that is bound by space and time? What is the bridge between the unmanifest ruler and the unmanifest ruled? I think the same question on a practical level: Last week, Maharishi described the administrators of his Peace Government as "administrators of the universe." Did Maharishi mean that literally? And if so, what does it mean to be an administrator of the universe? And what does such an administrator do?
2. Maharishi: Is the administrator of the universe really a man? Yes, because the administrator of the universe rules without running into the action of ruling. The rule is from the silent unmanifest.
3. The nothingness in the hollowness of the banyan seed expresses itself in the sprouting and the growth of all the leaves, branches, flowers and fruits of the whole tree. This unmanifest field of nothingness rules.
4. All this variety, all these differences have their ruler in a state of unity, which is silence. This silence is the administrative power which has been drawn to be the administrative power in the world of man. That is Peace Government.
5. In the language of quantum physics, zero-point motion is that administrative power which is not seen, which is not active, which is silence. And this is the Peace Government of the whole multiple galactic physical creation.
6. When through Transcendental Meditation and its advanced techniques and Yogic Flying, our awareness is stabilized on that field which is the total field of administration of the universe, then the individual is virtually the administrator of the universe. That is Brahman Consciousness, consciousness of totality.
7. The ruler of the universe is not that creativity which has to come down to any isolated time-space-bound areas in order to achieve anything in time and space. It remains where it is. And because it is pervading everything, omnipresent, and omniscient, and omnipotent, this is the ruler of the universe.
8. One calls it self-referral intelligence: that means, self-intelligence in its own nature. This administrator of the universe has no objection if that level is inherited by individual awareness, that means by individual mind or individual intellect or individual ego or individual senses. It doesn't mind. In this fully awakened self- referral Unified Field, the individual is the administrator of the universe.
9. All the paths of the sun and the moons and the galaxies, all this huge enormous cosmic activity is naturally administered in an automatic manner by that transcendental Self-referral totality of creativity of total Natural Law on its own self-sufficient level.
