So we Buddhists should tell to the world that there should be no more war in the name of religion. When our religious leaders met, they said that we should not allow the world to wage war in the name of religion. There is no justified war. If you want to wage war, do it, but do not justify it in the name of religion.

Buddhism and peaceAjjhattika santi is peace of mind.

The Buddha said: Natthi santiparam sukham: There is no higher bliss than peace.

The starting point in Buddhism as regards word peace is that we should cultivate inner peace(Ajjhattika santi) in the mind of men.

The Buddha taught that peaceful minds lead to peaceful speech and peaceful

actions. If the minds of living beings are at peace, the world will be at peace.

Buddhist perspective: three types: inner peace; peace in the

community of humankind; and ecological peace or peace with

Earth.

The fundamental goal of Buddhism is peace in all universes, but the first

step on the path to peace understands of peace.

Every religion mentioned about peace, but Buddhism clearly explained

PEACE EDUCATION THEORY

PEACE EDUCATION THEORY

Peace Education is about empowering people with the skills, attitudes, and knowledge:

* To build, maintain, and restore relationships at all levels of human interaction. * To develop positive approaches towards dealing with conflicts -from the personal to the international. *To create safe environments, both physically and emotionally, that nurture each individual. * To create a safe world based on justice and human rights. * To build a sustainable environment and protect it from exploitation and war.

Peace education is based on a philosophy that teaches nonviolence, love, compassion, trust, fairness, cooperation and reverence for the human family and all life on our planet.

Skills include communication, listening, understanding different perspectives, cooperation, problem solving, critical thinking, decision making, conflict resolution, and social responsibility.

Peace education leads to peaceful living.

The principles discussed so far are in accordance with the ethical teachings of all world religions. I maintain that every major religion of the world - Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Sikhism, Taoism, and Zoroastrianism

Has similar ideals of love, the same goal of benefiting humanity through spiritual practice, and the same effect of making their followers into better human beings. All religions teach moral precepts for perfecting the functions of mind, body, and speech. All teach us not to lie or steal or take others' lives, and so on.

If all religions make the betterment of humanity their main concern, then they can easily work together in harmony for world peace. Interfaith understanding will bring about the unity necessary for all religions to work together. Each religion has its own distinctive contributions to make, and each in its own way is suitable to a particular group of people as they understand life. The world needs them all.We practitioners of different faiths can work together for world peace when we view different religions as essentially instruments to develop a good heart - love and respect for others, a true sense of community. The most important thing is to look at the purpose of religion and not at the details of theology or metaphysics, which can lead to mere intellectualism.
