It is essential that the individuals in each culture have greater stability so that they can hold on to the values of their culture while taking full advantage of the tremendous progress of our age. With the TM technique, each person becomes more deeply grounded in their own nature, including their own cultural nature, in a strong, stable, and integrated way. From this firm platform we can review the achievements of other cultures, and the demands of technology and changing times, and accept only those ideas which really nourish our growth.The only way different cultures will be preserved is if those in each culture practice the TM program so that they can remain stable in the values of their culture and not be at the mercy of other more powerful cultures or the winds of change. Cultural integrity is the basis of invincibility, which is essential to world harmony.
