As defined by: Lyndon LaRouche
Entrance to the Maharishi University of Management and Maharishi Vedic University campus in Vlodrop, Holland Maharishi Vedic Science (MVS) is based on the Maharishi's interpretation of the ancient Vedic texts based on his master, Brahmananda Saraswati's teachings. MVS aims to put forward traditional Vedic literature in the light of Western traditions of knowledge and understanding. According to Roy Ascott, MVS also explains the potential for every human being to experience the infinite nature of transcendental consciousness, also defined as Being or Self, while engaged in normal activities of daily life.
Anyway, it prompted me to look up whatever "thoughts" that lunatic LaRouche has on the subject and found this:
LAROUCHE/BASEMENT DIALOGUE
Mind Is the Principle of the Universe
Here's an excerpt...
(and, btw, if you can seriously compare this gibberish to what Lothar Schafer, an accomplished, award winning professor of quantum mechanics and physical chemistry, is saying, you're even more scientifically ignorant than LaRouche and his kooky supporters. The only thing in common are the words "mind" and "universe". Schafer gives people of faith reason to hope that a REAL connection exists between the physical universe and the human mind. Brain functions, including consciousness, lies within the realm of quantum mechanics)
Excerpt begins...
"On Oct. 12, after the release of "Our Extraterrestrial Imperative, Part 2," the LaRouche "Basement Team" of young scientists and political organizers was discussing the issue of the galaxy's spiral arms. Lyndon LaRouche joined the conversation.
LaRouche: The arms are not fixed. When you go to the galactic arms, you're not fixed. Because the whole process itself is undergoing an evolution in the process, so that the successive rate is not in an orderable series.
You have to start from the top; you can't take it piecemeal, and take one slice of it, and try to determine how the whole thing is functioning. So, you're looking at the galactic function.
I think we have to emphasize more emphatically, now that we have this approach, we have to start with the galaxy; the galactic functions are the things we have to deal with as a whole. Not a galactic arm, or this arm, or that armbecause they're changing! You've got a thing like the Crab Nebula that comes in there, which is in a finite time, in terms of our human existence on Earth. And a lot of similar things are happening to change everything in the galaxy; so therefore, you need a function for the galaxy as a whole, not a comparison of arms as such. The only function of looking at the comparison of arms is to find the differences. And we have to start from the galaxy, as we did, in this function: That's the genius of it! We start from the galaxy, we don't try to build up from inside the Solar System into the galaxy. We go the other way around. The best thing we have now is the galaxy. You take the galaxy as a whole, and this entire function, and start from there. ..."
