Statement by World Peace Prayer Society
"The power of the Message, May Peace Prevail On Earth, lies in its capacity to bring people of various cultures, faith traditions and political ideals together as one united global heart and mind. May Peace Prevail On Earth, allows us to sincerely focus on our mutual desire to serve, create and manifest true peace on earth while transcending our differences and celebrating our common humanity.
The May Peace Prevail On Earth movement is a grassroots global movement to inspire, and re-awaken the inherent consciousness of love, peace and harmony which exists in everyone of us. It is a movement to bring inner peace of mind and to foster peace in the world at large."
PEACE POLE PROJECT
It is estimated that there are over 200,000 Peace Poles in the world on every continent which have been planted over many decades.
