"Prem Rawat's message is extremely simple. Extremely easy to learn and one wonders why we don't learn it when we're small and keep it going that way. The secret of civil society seems to be no secret."

Dr. Pages, Rector of the University of Cataluna and Chief Executive Officer of the Universal Forum of Cultures, Barcelona, Spain
The Forum was a global gathering aiming to help establish a culture of peace. It lasted 141 days, and was attended by many world leaders and more than 5 million other visitors.

Many people in this world speak of peace from different angles. Some speak of peace as a result of good socio-economic policies or of a sound distribution of wealth. Prem Rawat speaks of peace from a perspective that is both original and intriguing. Rather than to look only to institutions or to policies for creating peace, he speaks of a peace that, he says, each person is personally responsible for finding. His message is directed at each individual who comes to hear him, and the people who enjoy his message come from all walks of life.

Prem Rawat speaks from his heart to that part of us which understands and recognizes truth as something that it has always known. As a result of listening to Prem Rawat's expressions, I now know that wherever I travel in thought or in geography there is a home within me. A home in which, instead of the complexity of thought, the simplicity of peace resides. I credit Harvard for opening the doors of my mind, and I credit Prem Rawat for opening the door to my heart of hearts. In a very practical way he has allowed me to access the deepest feelings of peace, of fulfillment, of freedom. Free of any external catalyst. And for me, as Robert Frost put it so simply, this has made all the difference.

Richard Patten, aMember of the Provincial Parliament of Ontario, Canada.
Prem Rawat brings a message of peace. Peace, more than ever, is on everyone’s mind. And peace, more than ever, is sorely missing. For centuries, governmental and private organizations have tried to envision how to make peace a reality. Extensive studies have been conducted to identify the conditions for bringing about lasting peace. Many initiatives have been launched to help create conditions where people could live in peace.

The charter of the UNESCO says since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defense of peace must be constructed. While everyone agrees on the philosophical truth behind this statement, little progress has been achieved towards making this vision a reality. No one really knows where to start or how to go about it.
