Global Country of World Peace, Micronation project in Maharishi Vedic City, United States

The Global Country of World Peace is a micronation project dedicated to promoting meditation and educational initiatives on a global scale. The organization runs various facilities and programs supporting these goals.

The project was founded in 2000 and builds on teachings from Transcendental Meditation that had been spreading worldwide for decades. Its creation followed a long tradition of teaching these meditation techniques.

The project incorporates Vedic architectural principles in its buildings and operates a global network of centers offering meditation courses. These spaces welcome visitors interested in learning meditation techniques.

Visitors can attend various meditation courses at centers located in different places. It helps to check which programs are available near you before planning a visit.

The project created its own currency called Raam designed to support agricultural projects in developing countries. This approach shows an unconventional economic strategy behind the initiative.
