As we round off our #WorldInterfaithHarmonyWeek observance, our spotlight is on Dalai Lama, a Buddhist spiritual leader who was awarded the Nobel Peace prize in 1989 for his consistent non-violent efforts to free Tibet. ? ?He is also committed to promoting interfaith dialogue and religious harmony. He has participated in many interfaith dialogue meetings and urged religious leaders to promote dialogue to end the chains of violence across communities and countries. In addition to promoting interfaith dialogue, Dalai Lama also believes that, in the long run, education can play a key role in eliminating inter-religious conflict.? ?In conclusion, it is clear that from these leaders spotlight shared in the course of this observance over six days that the moral imperatives of all religions call for peace. While we encourage everyone to join in spreading the message of interfaith harmony and goodwill across all churches, mosques, synagogues, temples and other places of worship all over the world consistently, we leave you to ponder on this question- what role are you playing in spreading peace in your place of worship? ?
