- ... that hundreds of Yogic Flyers practice daily in the Golden Domes (pictured) in Fairfield, Iowa, and that Maharishi Mahesh Yogi called the domes "particle accelerators of consciousness"?
- ALT1: ... that proponents claim 7,000 Yogic Flyers helped stock markets and crime rates around the world when they gathered in the Maharishi Golden Domes (pictured) in Fairfield, Iowa, in 1983?

Some exceptional claims in both the hooks and the article need to be presented appropriately, for example "it is believed" that the centers reduce crime is not sufficient, believed by who? Gatoclass (talk) 12:40, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
- "It is believed" by practitioners and/or the movement. Is that unclear? Partial information is allowed in hooks as a tease. Wikipedia:Did you know/Reviewing guide#Review the hook. As for the article, in the intro of the article it says, "Proponents assert that...", and in the text it says, "A paper by Maharishi University researchers found", among other attributed statements.
