has a new documentary in the works

documentary of a tour that I took part in last fall. I went to Israel and 14 European countries talking about [Transcendental] Meditation and peace

So there’s a larger goal in mind?

to establish these universities of peace in every country – 192 countries, and each country would have one university, a university of peace. A university that literally and truly creates peace. Not just talks about it or sings about it, but creates it. That’s what I would like to see happen.

Just tell people to get rid of the stress, and do their thing, and boogie!

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Mildred Loving, a black woman whose challenge to Virginia's ban on interracial marriage led to a landmark Supreme Court ruling striking down such laws nationwide, has died

Loving and her white husband, Richard, changed history in 1967 when the U.S. Supreme Court upheld their right to marry. The ruling struck down laws banning racially mixed marriages in at least 17 states.

"It wasn't my doing," Loving said. "It was God's work."

Her husband died in 1975. Shy and soft-spoken

she never wanted to be a hero—just a bride.

Loving got married in Washington in 1958, when she was 18

she didn't realize it was illegal

they were arrested a few weeks

They pleaded guilty to charges of "cohabiting as man and wife, against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth

avoided jail time by agreeing to leave Virginia

legal challenge by writing to Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy

After the Supreme Court ruled, the couple returned to Virginia
