In quest of World Peace

Friends,

              We are fully aware of the fact that, today; the entire world is passing through a tense & chaotic stage, even worse than what was experienced during the World Wars. The present one is also a war, a war between good& evil, sacrifice & greed, virtue & vices, tolerance & rigidity, religious coexistence & fundamentalism, traditional Vs Modernity, East and West and so on.
                It is true that we are living in a world which Dicken’s called “Hard Times”. The world is witnessing mind boggling scientific and industrial developments on one hand and on other, chaos, terrorism, bloodshed, and massacre in the name of religions, caste, creed, across the boundaries. Pressures and tensions which are concomitant to growth are eroding the value system that was integral to our ethos.
                    Some of us relatively unfettered by the present day materialism try to discover our panacea in their time honoured aphorism, but without falling victim to the backward looking pull of revivalism. The society should have helped in preserving the human values and peaceful coexistence apart from providing the materialistic gains and achieve sustainable development, but it is not happening. We must give attention to the past ideals but always within the present context. Ideals taken off the shelf must be well honed against contemporary values, before they can be used to enlighten mankind.
                                    Let us be partners and join hands together to work incessantly and learn to devote all our resources, energy and strength for the welfare of all living beings and try to develop culture of Tolerance, Universal Brotherhood and Peace.
yours truly
