Dr. Hagelin Launches International Center for Invincible Defense

Institute director Dr. John Hagelin recently inaugurated the new International Center for Invincible Defense in New York (see the Center’s comprehensive new website at www.InvincibleDefense.org). The Center will serve as the international headquarters for a global initiative to implement in every country the Invincible Defense Technology — the collective practice of the Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi program by large groups of peace-creating experts. Dr. Hagelin, who is the Center’s executive director, said that the collective practice of the Center’s Invincible Defense Technology by these large groups would enliven the Unified Field — the most fundamental and powerful level of nature’s functioning. As more than 50 research studies have confirmed, the positive, coherent influence created by these groups will calm hostilities and effectively prevent any attack on the nation.

To celebrate the inauguration of the International Center for Invincible Defense and to bring its message to the international press, Dr. Hagelin hosted a series of more than 30 global news conferences between April and August about this Unified Field-based approach to defense, including its impact on the related fields of education, health, agriculture, poverty removal, and other areas of social concern. These news conferences were broadcast live around the world via the Internet and satellite and created significant interest among international ambassadors and the media (see below). To view replays of the press conferences, please visit the video library of the Institute website at http://istpp.org/video.

The International Center for Invincible Defense operates in association with the Global Financial Capital of New York at 70 Broad Street, a financial-district landmark that formerly housed the American Bank Note Company.

Presenting Invincible Defense to Ambassadors and the United Nations. From April to August 2007, Dr. Hagelin and University president Dr. Bevan Morris also met in New York with leaders of the United Nations and ambassadors from many countries to explore the practical implementation of our proven approach to peace — the establishment of large groups of peace-creating experts in every country. The response was extraordinary — especially for war-torn countries in the Middle East, where the need for a new approach to peace is felt most acutely. And when these leaders of nations heard about the unprecedented results of the Invincible America Assembly, they became profoundly motivated to implement these programs immediately.
