A TASTE OF UTOPIA
Ten thousand Sidhas—experts in advanced Transcendental Meditation and Yogic Flying—gathered in India to generate, through extended group practice sessions, the “Maharishi Effect” . Reduction of crime and violence, lowering international tensions and improving the quality of life in society are the global effects when the minimum threshold of 10,000 meditators is reached. Is this phenomenon mystical, or does it represent a revolutionary scientific paradigm? The film explores the teachings of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, an Indian physicist and spiritual leader (also known as the Beatles' guru), who posited that consciousness is a fundamental field of nature—like electromagnetism or gravity—that can be stimulated and influenced through meditation techniques, affecting even non-meditators and mitigating negative social trends.
