The Foundation of World Peace


I see all the different religious traditions as paths for the development of inner peace, which is the true foundation of world peace. These ancient traditions come to us as a gift from our common past. Will we continue to cherish it as a gift and hand it over to the future generations as a legacy of our shared desire for peace? Or will we turn it into another weapon that will snatch away the future of the coming generations? The choice we make is obvious. What needs detailed discussion is how we can ensure that the different religions of the world can become powerful allies of peace.
