It is so disheartening in hearing about the destructive and horrible terrorist attacks, violence and terrorism in different parts of the world, which led to the death of thousands of innocent souls. It is really painful and sad for everyone to witness how horrible can human beings be to do such an inhuman act. As everyone process such destructiveness, a verse from the holy Dhammapada must be practice, that Hatred is never be appeased by hatred in this world, by non-hatred alone is hatred appeased, this is the Law-eternal. We must not create more hate by responding all these terrorism and destructiveness with more violence and destruction and operate it from a different purpose reflecting the value that makes us calm, educated and a civilized society. We are all blessed with great compassion, kindness and concern and, we must altogether irrespective of religion, nationality and gender join our hands together and pray for world peace. We must have this in our mind that we are all very much capable and everyone have the ability to radiate compassion, peace, and love for immediate restored peace. Let the terrorist be terrorist, we are not among them. In this world of extreme poverty, violence, terrorism and conflicts, it is not possible to live peacefully without fear and insecurity. For the urgent restoration of world peace, humanity have no choice but to look and accept the sublime teachings of Peace, compassion, loving kindness, non-violence and equality and universality of humankind, it  seems to be the one and only hope for peace and prosperity.

The mind of the humans of today’s world is very advanced. Human intelligence is such that we cannot find it in any other beings. One man’s mind is strong enough to destroy the whole world. With independent intelligence, humans have discovered and invented certain things like the nuclear weapon with which the whole world can be destroyed if it is not guided and trained properly. Humans can become the cruelest, cunning, selfish being in this universe. Other cannot develop such mental attitudes...

On the other hand, only humans can have the ability to develop compassion, understanding, love etc. One pure and compassionate mind can influence the whole humanity like Lord Buddha, Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohammad and all the other enlightened beings. Their secret teachings are still effective and people are experiencing the effect of the teachings of these great beings.    

 

The secret teaching of Peace, compassion, loving Kindness and non-violence will enable us to develop better and mutual understanding, cooperation and friendship between all religious leaders from around the world and will lead the whole humanity to peace and harmony. It is a teaching valid not only to one particular religion but to the entire humanity irrespective of caste, creed, religion, gender, etc. In today’s particular world each and everyone should walk hand in hand beyond religion or nationality for the restoration of peace, happiness and well-being of all being.

May true peace and harmony prevail all over the world!
