The basic sounds of all the languages of the world and the Constitution of the Universe - Maharishi

http://www.TM.org The basic sounds of all the languages of the world and the Constitution of the Universe - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

1. (Dr. Morris:) Yes, Maharishi. Yes, there is a very beautiful question that comes out of what Maharishi has
been saying this week about language: Maharishi has, through many press conferences, spoken of "A" as
one-letter Constitution of the Universe. But "A" is found also in almost all the languages, if not all the
languages, of the world. In fact, it is often said to be the sound that is first spoken by a child after the child is
born. Would Maharishi comment on the significance of this sound "A" present in all the different languages
of the world? And, for example, in the Island of World Peace in Canada, there the Mickma people are thereand
they seem to have not only the sound "A" but also the sound of "am" and "k." They have these basic
sounds also of the point of infinity as well. Could Maharishi comment on the significance of this sound
which embodies the Constitution of the Universe present in all the seven thousand languages of the world?

2. Maharishi: "A" is the total expression of sound. "A" is the first syllable of the Veda. The flow of
knowledge in language starts with "A," indicating "A" is the source of all knowledge.

3. The Vedic sounds from "A" to "i" to "u" to "r" to "rr" "e," "ai," "o," "au," are still found in the ancient
cultural languages of the world.

4. Mother tongue means a composition of language as the language of Veda: Vedic language. The mother
tongue indicates the functioning of that particular set of Natural Law in that region. Natural Law flows in
the mother tongue.

5. Small areas, twenty kilometer long and wide, these ancient kingdoms in the world, are governed by
Natural Law much more than those which have been mixed up by invaders.

6. So many languages becoming one language is dilution of the parental role of the mother of all languages,
Vedic language.

7. UNESCO has commented upon the Vedic chanting as the common basis of all mankind. This is the basic
principle on which we are inheriting the advantages of administration of the Cosmic Constitution to bring
more success to our man-made constitutions in our family of nations.

8. The God-made Constitution, the Constitution of Total Natural Law has been ignored and so man-made
constitutions are devoid of real vitality and creativity.

9. We are taking recourse to the Constitution of the Universe, the Veda, to "A," and all the syllables within
"A." And these are all the syllables of the mother tongue.

10. Restoration of mother tongue is restoration of the purity of Natural Law. And restoration of purity of
Natural Law means restoration of the growing power of Nature. Natural Law knows nothing other than stepby-
step, sequential evolution.

11. Transcendental Meditation goes to the root of all problems, transcending relativity and getting to the
source of thought where Total Natural Law is lively. Now we have only to create a few groups of 500 people
or 2000 people in a country practicing morning and evening, and that is enough to purify the whole
collective consciousness of the nation.

12. Dr. Morris has shown the flags going up all around the world. This shows the rising success of the
Movement all over the world. The earth is connected with the sky with the flags. Unity is rising to
demonstrate the diversity coming into unity, on the ground and in the air and in the sky.
