Experts from the 60 countries represented at the Convention will demonstrate this scientifically validated technology of consciousness to create peace and bring the support of Nature to individuals, communities, nations and the whole world. Photographers welcome.

Continuing their tradition of holding annual International Conventions, 400 leaders and delegates of the Natural Law Parties of over 60 countries will meet in Bonn from 7 to 9 July following a year of rapid expansion and increasing success for the party all around the world. The Natural Law Party is now preparing to contest elections in Germany, the USA, the European Union, and many other countries. The party has millions of supporters worldwide.

Not only is the Natural Law Party offering proven programmes to create a problem-free society in the countries where it is active, but collectively the Natural Law Parties are now in a position to resolve problems on a global scale and succeed where the UN, NATO, the IMF and other international organisations have repeatedly failed. In education, health care, economy, security, agriculture, environment, construction and planning, the Natural Law Party has unique Vedic programmes in accord with Natural Law, which hundreds of scientific studies have shown to work and which could be implemented immediately. At this news conference party leaders will present a powerful new action plan to bring the benefits of these programmes to the whole world by the new millennium.

Today, EVERYTHING IS VEDA Live videoconference address by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (at 12 noon)

Members of the press are invited to stay on for a special address by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi to a plenary session of the Convention. This address will be given via videoconference from Maharishi Vedic University in Vlodrop, Holland. Maharishi, whose Vedic programmes inspired the formation of the Natural Law Party, recently inaugurated a new global satellite TV channel, Maharishi Veda Vision, which broadcasts the Vedic knowledge for several hours every day.

Maharishi will tell Convention delegates that today everything is Veda. The man of today is not the same as the man of yesterday. With the discovery by Professor Tony Nader, MD, PhD, that the entire Veda and Vedic literature can be located in the human physiology, it is now known that every individual is Veda. Likewise, the countries of today are no longer what they were when they were founded. "It is a different world now," Maharishi says. "There is new hope. Today the total knowledge of the Veda, the total organising power of Natural Law, is available to create Heaven on Earth."

Algeria - Argentina - Australia - Austria - Barbados - Belgium - Bolivia - Bosnia-Herzegovina - Brazil - Canada - Chile -
