==== World Government: =
Among much historical importance, Hacketts Town in Schooley’s Mountain, New Jersey was a meeting place for many scholars from Europe, India and US. Nataraja Guru, a scholar and a disciple of Narayana Guru (Sivagiri-India) established the first Gurukulam in Schooley’s mountain in 1949 with the support and assistance of Mr. Hari Jacobson & Adris family. While staying in the newly built Asramam (home) Swami Nataraja Guru wrote two well-known books, “The Memorandum on World Government”, and “ The Word of the Guru”. These books became a hall mark of Nataraja Guru explaining the philosophies and teachings of Sri Narayana Guru to the western world.
The Memorandum on world Government is about the relevance of a World Government for all irrespective of any nation and continents and it was established (1953) with support and resistance from many Governments. Mr. Garry Davis, the proponent of the idea spends rest of his life propagating the idea of World Government. The Home in Rock Road, where Nataraja Guru stayed and wrote the books (1949 – 1951) is still (Year 2014) remains in the woods(across Toy family land) where the guidelines and ideas of a World Government( World Government of World Citizens) formed by Nataraja Guru (1895-1973) and Garry Davis (1921-2013) took place.
