Toward World Peace

TOWARD WORLD PEACE: SEEING THE UNITY BETWEEN US ALL

by Stephen Knapp (Sri Nandanandana dasa)

 

This is a new book that points out the essential reasons why peace in the world and cooperation among people, communities, and nations have been so difficult to establish. It also advises the only way real peace and harmony can be achieved.

 

In order for peace and unity to exist we must first realize what barriers and divisions keep us apart. Only then can we break through those barriers to see the unity that naturally exists between us all. Then, rather than focusing on our differences, it is easier to recognize our similarities and common goals. With a common goal, all of humanity can work together to help each other reach that destiny of working together to make this planet a practical place in which we all can live in harmony and peace.

 

This book is short and to the point. It is a thought provoking book and will provide inspiration for anyone. It is especially useful for those working in politics, religion, interfaith, race relations, the media, the United Nations, teaching, or who have a position of leadership in any capacity, or who are trying to spread the basis for peace in warring countries. It is also for those of us who simply want to spread the insights needed for bringing greater levels of peace, acceptance, unity, and equality between friends, neighbors, and communities. Such insights include:

 

The factors that keep us apart.

Breaking down cultural distinctions.

Breaking down the religious differences.

Seeing through bodily distinctions.

We are all working to attain the same things.

Our real identity: The basis for common ground.

Seeing the Divinity within each of us.

 

What we can do now to bring unity between everyone we meet. This book carries an important message and plan of action that we must incorporate into our lives and plans for the future if we intend to ever bring peace and unity between us. It is time to create a calm, cooperative, and prejudice- free world by seeing the natural common ground and unity that exists between us all.

 

This is a great preaching tool for devotees who are working in interfaith or for inter-cultural relations, and even to improve relationships within ISKCON.
