The aim of Vethathiri is to establish a global philosophy with the result that man cultivates the characteristics of world citizenship, the ideal of one world, one religion and one truth. These in turn pave the way for “World-Peace and Harmony”. In order to achieve this, Maharishi lays down certain principles on which human personality has to be developed. These principles like world without war, economic justice, fair judiciary, one world federal government, reformation of culture, living under the guidance of intellectuals, respect for womanhood, living in tune with the law of nature, sports to be made non-commercial, significance of the law of cause and effect and basic amenities to be available to all.
