The solution to problems of peace, trade, health, crime, the environment, migration, and all other areas of life in any nation cannot be achieved by that nation alone, but requires the participation of all nations.

These problems are so complex as to place their solution beyond the range of human intelligence and the ability of man-made governments. The government of Nature administers through Natural Law the infinite diversity of the universe with perfect order and without a problem. The evolutionary power of Natural Law upholds the progress and fulfilment of everyone and everything.

All problems are caused by the violation of the laws of nature by individuals who have not fully developed their consciousness, which is the basis of their creativity, intelligence, and decision-making ability. Knowledge and technologies exist that develop the full potential of consciousness, establishing life in accord with Natural Law in every country and thereby bringing the support of Nature's perfect government to every man-made government.

Lacking this knowledge, the United Nations, the European Union and other international organizations have failed in their mission to bring peace to troubled areas of the world, solve global problems, and establish harmony in the family of nations.

The Natural Law Parties are uniquely qualified to solve global problems because their policies are based on the complete, scientific knowledge of Natural Law. Because the Natural Law Party of each country embraces the same policies and programmes, the Natural Law Parties together comprise the only political force in the world sufficiently integrated to reliably solve global problems.

The key programme supported by all Natural Law Parties is to establish "A Group for a Government"—a group of experts in the technology of Natural Law, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Transcendental Meditation and Yogic Flying.

Extensive scientific research indicates that such groups create a powerful, evolutionary influence of coherence, harmony, and creativity in the collective consciousness of society, thereby eliminating negative tendencies and strengthening positive social and economic trends.

The Natural Law Parties support the establishment of such coherence-creating groups at the continental, national, provincial, and local levels. Bringing life in accord with Natural Law through coherence-creating groups is the necessary basis for the success of any specific programme that aims to solve problems and improve the quality of life.

The Natural Law Parties also support, in addition to this coherence-creating programme, the following life-supporting policies and programmes:

• A NATURALLY UNIFIED WORLD OF SOVEREIGN NATIONS: The Natural Law Parties advocate policies that uphold the dignity and sovereignty of every nation while creating coherence and harmony in world consciousness;

• INVINCIBLE DEFENCE: The Natural Law Parties propose the creation of a "prevention wing" of the military in every nation, composed of one to three per cent of the military personnel trained as experts in Yogic Flying; this will create an indomitable influence of coherence in national consciousness, disallowing the birth of an enemy either outside or within the nation;

• GLOBAL PROSPERITY: The Natural Law Parties recognize that the source of economic prosperity is human creativity; therefore, they support proven programmes that develop full creativity by aligning individual intelligence with the infinite creative intelligence of Nature; these programmes spontaneously make everyone a "master manager" by giving them the supreme management capabilities of Nature; the result is support of Nature—good fortune—for a healthy, dynamic world economy;

• REDUCED CRIME: Recognizing that the fundamental cause of crime is the accumulation of stress in the life of the individual and society, the Natural Law Parties support the most effective programme for reducing individual and societal stress, which is coherence-creating groups of Yogic Flyers established at the continental, national, provincial, and local levels; research has shown that such groups can reduce violent crime by at least 20 per cent within two months and achieve substantially greater reductions when the programme is maintained continuously;

• PERFECT HEALTH: The Natural Law Parties will create a disease-free society in every- country by introducing scientifically proven, prevention-oriented natural health care, including Maharishi's Vedic Approach to Health, which research shows can eliminate 50 per cent of disease within three years;

• IDEAL EDUCATION: The Natural Law Parties propose to every educational authority programmes for study and research in consciousness, so that all students can develop higher states of consciousness, fully unfold their inner creative genius, and enjoy the fruit of all knowledge—life spontaneously in accord with Natural Law, free from mistakes and suffering;

• IDEAL CITY PLANNING AND ARCHITECTURE: The Natural Law Parties promote the use of the ancient science of Maharishi Sthapatya Veda for the creation of ideal living conditions in accordance with Natural Law;

• POLLUTION FREE ENVIRONMENT: The policy of the Natural Law Parties for creating a pollution-free environment is to eliminate the basis of all environmental problems—the violation of Natural Law—through education that enables a person to behave spontaneously in accord with Natural Law; the automatic result of this policy will be pollution-free industries, energy, and transport;

• BAN ON GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOODS: Because of the enormous risks for human health and the environment, the Natural Law Parties have called for a worldswide ban on the introduction of genetically engineered foods and the release of genetically modified organisms;

• SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE: The Natural Law Parties promote agriculture that is both natural and profitable, and that supports the social integrity of the nation; this policy will provide non-toxic, healthy food for everyone;

• SIMPLIFIED ADMINISTRATION: Recognizing that Natural Law governs the universe with perfect efficiency and simplicity—"automation in administration"—the Natural Law Parties support the establishment of coherence-creating groups to bring the infinite intelligence and organizing power of Nature to improve governmental administration;

• ELIMINATION OF CORRUPTION: With the rise of coherence created by groups of Yogic Flyers on all levels of society, political leaders cannot but behave according to Natural Law; politics will become a pious profession;

• LOWER TAXES IN EVERY COUNTRY: By eliminating problems in every area of society and by simplifying the administration of government, the Natural Law Parties will be able to reduce national debts and, at the same time, responsibly lower taxes without cutting essential services; this will not only avert global economic crises but will also free vast resources for economic progress worldwide;

• DECREASED MIGRATION: Through their policies for rapid economic development and reduced domestic problems, especially the problem of violent conflict, the Natural Law Parties are the only organizations in the world competent to solve the problems of migration and refugees;

• UPHOLDING FAMILY VALUES: By dissolving stress among individuals and within society, the Natural Law Parties' policies will create an upsurge of happiness, stability, and harmony in family and community life;

• WORLD PEACE: By strengthening the cultural integrity of every social group while promoting unity among them all, and by preventing the birth of an enemy for every nation, the policies of the Natural Law Parties will resolve conflicts and ensure world peace.
