Bodhayanti Parasparam Vol 6
In the same message Babuji opined that there is very little difference between the civilization of East and West. While maintaining that spirituality is not the monopoly of Indians only, Babuji states that every country should have its share in spirituality .He further states that peace is the basis of spirituality and when once it is initiated reaches the whole world taking the world to what is after peace. When many people know what is before peace (may mean to include conditions of disorder, tumult, indiscipline and chaos) hardly a few know what is after peace. As He intends to spread spirituality in the world, peace assumes importance as it forms the basis of spirituality.
It is relevant in this connection to bring in the issue of achieving world peace for which UNO made an appeal to Rev. Babuji Maharaj in July 1957 to help them in the cause. Their thinking was to have a separate army well equipped to crush the power which attacks any country and uses the modern weapons.
Copying the entire letter of Babuji will stretch the length of the paper .It is very difficult to convey the message conveyed by Babuji by attempting a summary of his letter to U.N.O. A humble attempt, however, is made to copy down extracts from this letter, highlighting the need for disciplining the individual mind by creating a feeling of universal love which is the surest remedy of evils and can help to free us from the horrors of war.
“The idea of peace common in all minds, though shattered by the self of individual mind, is working on individualistic basis to gain one’s own end on account of narrow-mindedness of people. To dissipate the idea of individual self and to work harmoniously for common good is the demand of the time.”
