The Transcendental Meditation organization in France owns nine hectares of land at the Brahma-Sthan* (geographical centre) of France where three years ago, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi asked Dr Dominique Lemoine, National Director of France for the Global Country of World Peace, and a team of Transcendental Meditation Teachers to begin a project to create a Maharishi Peace Colony** there.

They have been cultivating the land and are now selling beautiful flowers and organic vegetables. They also have honey bees and gather their honey for use by the organization.

Dr Lemoine said there is also a possibility for 67 hectares of beautiful land near the Brahma-Sthan, with a lake, rivers, hills, meadows, and forests, for which the zoning has been changed from agricultural to residential. This land would offer the potential to build about 200-300 houses, so about 800 people could live there in different types of houses and apartments.

There could also be a possibility of building a Maharishi Spa, Maharishi School and facilities for a university and for Maharishi Vedic Pandits. Everything is possible there, Dr Lemoine said. Town officials are supportive of the project.

Because it is a rural area, it has a very deep silence, 'no pollution or industry, no noise except a few tractors, so it's a very beautiful place for creating a peace colony,' Dr Lemoine said.

* Brahma-Sthan: Dr Eike Hartmann, Minister of Global Reconstruction for the Global Country of World Peace, has explained that the centre point of a country has a very special and precious quality of balance and unifying wholeness. In the Vedic language, this central place is called Brahma-Sthan, and from here, the wholeness of life can be administered according to the Constitution of the Universe, the Will of God, which silently administers the ever-expanding universe in perfect order and harmony.

** Peace Colony: A community founded to help create invincibility for a nation, based on Maharishi's Vedic Science and its practical applications for living perfection in all areas of life—featuring a Maharishi Peace Palace, Maharishi School, Maharishi Ayur-Veda Health Centre, homes, and buildings for group practice of Yogic Flying—all built according to Vedic Architecture, Maharishi Sthapatya Veda.
