An Antidote to Violence: Evaluating the Evidence

An Antidote to Violence explores how Transcendental Meditation (TM) may influence societal peace by examining peer-reviewed research and interdisciplinary insights. Authors Barry Spivack and Patricia Anne Saunders suggest that TM could impact the collective consciousness, potentially reducing negative social trends like war fatalities and fostering international cooperation. The book integrates various fields including psychology, sociology, philosophy, and physics to provide evidence for ways to decrease violence in society.
