The very existence of human species on earth depends on establishment of world peace, where every human being on this planet is able to live a peaceful, contented, fulfilling and productive life. We can achieve world peace only if we can completely eradicate inequality, illiteracy, religious bigotry, narrow mindedness and intolerance throughout the world and learn to respect each other irrespective of our colour, creed, religion and nationality.

Today the world is turn with hatred and strife. Indeed, never before was there a greater need for mutual understanding and love than is now. Love means a change of heart; and this can be achieved by sincerely following the path of SPIRITUALITY, which leads us to the realization that the same divinity dwells in all of us. That is true religion and not what seeks to separate us, one from the other. May there be love, peace and brotherhood!

A pre-condition of world peace is respect for all types of diversities including of views. India is richly endowed with such diversities, which should be a source of its strength and entitle it to play an effective role in promotion of world peace. This role is being retarded by forces of homogenisation and intolerance. Degree of freedom and respect minorities enjoy a measure of democracy & peace. Most important minority is minority of one. However freedom should not be at cost of freedom of others.

Peace in the world can be secured only when the living beings in this world are all at peace and in harmony with nature. We can all be at peace only when each of us respects all the living and non-living entities which constitute this universe (in much the same way as each of us would like to be treated by them). This is possible when each human being realizes that each of us is only an infinitesimally small speck in relation to the realities of the creations in this universe, our lifetime is so short and transient, and our wants are ever changing at each stage even in this short lifetime, that it is best if we put to practice in our daily life only those actions which are socially responsible & congenial and morally & ethically dharmic in its true sense of whichever religious faith we follow.
