Peace Message from Sri Sri Ravi Shankar on the UN International Peace Day, Sep 21 , 2008

I'm happy to be with you all joining you from the other part of the world for this peace conference and this important day of the United Nations International Peace Day.
We are all so fortunate that we could find some peacewith ourselves. Now we have a challenge to reach out to all those who are not at peace with themselves as well as those countries and those parts of the world where there are a lot of disturbances. They are deprived of peace and we all have that responsibility to bring peace to every nook and corner of the world.Unless every member of our family is peaceful our peace is not complete and we would like to have a complete peace.

There is peace needed at three levels.One is inner peace, we all should have our mind peaceful so that we be can be dynamic in our actions and our thoughts are becoming more positive when we are peaceful.Second is peace in our immediate environment, in our family, friends circle, you know, both places.The third level of peace is peace between the nations, peace between the continents of nations which is most important.
You know, today the arms race that is happening between the countries have to be put to an end. So nuclear disarmamenthas to happen so that there is no fear between the countries.It is because of the fear between countries that they go on the arms race and as we all know dangerous are the nuclear arms and if they get into wrong hands the whole planet is in trouble.So we all have to persuade all the governments and the institutions in the world to promote that peace between the nations. So every day we pray and conclude our day with Om Shanti Shanti Shanti, meaning, let the divinity bring peace to individuals and their immediate family and parliaments of society and between the nations.
Thank you.-
H. H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
