We are certain that ‘Peace is Possible’. Our dream is to transform the world from the culture of violence to
a culture of Peace. We begin out actions through dreaming of a peace filled world where every individual
experiences peace in their life, in their family and community. This dream is the door to our endeavors for
peace.
To make our dream of achieving peace a reality, we need to think about it constantly. We need to think and
strategize our actions. Our thoughts must always be centered on how to build a peace filled society. The
more we engage our thoughts on our dream, the more clearly we get on what we speak and do to build
peace.
It is the responsibility of every individual to spread the awareness on the need for peace. Everyone is
encouraged to speak about peace with whomever they come across. Speaking for peace also involves
communicating with others in a non-violent manner. We should try always not to hurt people through our
words. It is through setting examples of non-violent communication that we become agents of peace to
others. Speaking against discrimination, oppression, violence and corruption too makes individuals
agents of change for Peace.
Sharing builds brotherhood and love. We set examples for peace building through sharing our resources
with others. We do not hold back the knowledge and abilities and make differentiation between the
fortunate and the less fortunate. We are called to share what we have that there may be equality, justice
and peace.
We believe in the Supreme Being and look up to him in our troubles. While praying for our personal and
family needs; we do also pray for Peace in the world. It is Grace that has brought us thus far and Grace will
take us forward. Our prayers will be for the end of wars and hostilities between nations; enmity and
quarrels between families and individuals and misunderstanding and unrest in the households; and hatred
between our near and dear ones.
It is our actions that speak of what we really are. We need to give our time and energy in organizing people
for action for Peace. We mediate during misunderstanding and quarrels, we work for people who are victims of violence, we work for bringing broken families together, we work for bringing peace in
communities troubled by violence due to discrimination and oppression. When we start doing something
for a particular cause, we will be able to gain support from others and also inspire them towards working
for the same cause.
By dreaming, thinking, speaking, sharing, praying and working for peace, we shall be living for peace,
inspiring tens of thousands of people towards building peace. Our dreams will be reality when a legion
stands along with us for Peace in the world.
