Applying unified field theory and ancient wisdom
to elevate global consciousness and create lasting peace
Dr. John Hagelin is a world-renowned quantum physicist, educator, visionary leader, and global peacemaker. His groundbreaking work harnesses the deepest laws of nature to unfold full human potential—and offers a powerful roadmap for inner and societal transformation.
John Hagelin, Ph.D., received his A.B. summa cum laude from Dartmouth and his Ph.D. in physics from Harvard. He conducted pioneering research at CERN and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, publishing highly cited work in particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology.
For over 25 years, Dr. Hagelin has led research into human consciousness, demonstrating how meditation can improve brain development, foster higher states of awareness, and reduce crime and violence through collective practice.
He is President Emeritus and Distinguished Professor of Physics at Maharishi International University and International President of the Global Union of Scientists for Peace (GUSP.org). As author of Manual for a Perfect Government and 2000 U.S. Presidential nominee of the Reform Party and Natural Law Party, he has advanced evidence-based, sustainable solutions for society.
“Enlightenment is humanity’s natural birthright.
– John Hagelin, PhD
Dr. Hagelin’s research shows that enlightenment is humanity’s natural birthright — a result of balanced brain functioning attainable through meditation. Large-scale studies confirm that groups of trained meditators reduce crime and violence, creating a measurable “field effect” of peace.
1992
Founded the Natural Law Party – ran 400+ candidates nationwide.
1996–2000
U.S. Presidential candidate promoting prevention-oriented policies
1993
Led $6M Washington, D.C. project with 4,000 meditators — violent crime dropped 26%
2001–Present

Groundbreaking work in superstring unified field theory and dark matter research
Dr. Hagelin is the international president of the Global Union of Scientists for Peace, an organization of leading scientists dedicated to nuclear disarmament and evidence-based solutions to crime, terrorism, and social conflict. GUSP research has conclusively demonstrated that large groups of meditating, peace-creating experts can effectively defuse acute societal stress—thereby preventing violence and social conflict, averting terrorism and war, and providing a practical foundation for permanent world peace.
