Guest guest Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 Saturday, January 28, 2006 Swami Dayamrita was the representative for the Hindu faith at the 7th annual World Sabbath Call to Peace at the Christ Church Cranbrook in Bloomfield Hills, MI. Religious leaders from the Muslim, Jewish, Sikh, Baha¹I, Swedenborgian, Hindu, Antiochian Orthodox, Christian, Quaker faiths participated. It was a beautiful and grand event, with attendees from all different faiths and countries gathered had a single cause to forgive one another, be reconciled to one another, and to commit to work together, to build a world of Justice, Equality and Peace. Swami delivered the following words by Amma: ³The world is one family of which we are all members. The key to world peace lies with every individual residing on this planet. Only when we work together as a global family not merely belonging to a particular race, religion or nation will peace and happiness prevail on this earth. Though the world has become closer through technology we have not drawn closer in our hearts. A hallmark of civilization is the open-mindedness to accept differing and diverse people. The historic purpose of religion is not to build walls of division in society but to knit people together with the thread of Universal Love. The world is like a flower. Each nation is a petal of this flower. If one petal is infested it will soon affect all the other petals and the life and beauty of the flower will be destroyed. May the light of love and peace shine within our hearts.² Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
