After the inauguration of Saint Dnyaneshwar World Peace Dome on 150th anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, the World Peace Parliament of Science, Spirituality, and Philosophy was led ahead with the eminent presence of speakers, thinkers, and philosophers at MIT-ADT University, Loni-Kalbhor. The topic was “Religion and Religious Scriptures of the World as ‘True Life- Guiding Scriptures”
Present on the dais included the dignitaries as followed: Founder President of MIT-WPU Dr Vishwanath Karad, Head of the Jewish community in New Delhi- Ezekiel Isaac Malekar, Acharya Lokesh Muni who works to extend the message of peace and harmony to world, Senior Buddhist Monk- Bhante Rahul Bodhi, General Authority of The Church of Jesus Christ- Don R. Clarke from United States, Founder President of Zoroastrian College- Dr. Prof. Meher Master Moos, Former Union Minister Arif Mohammed Khan, and Founder of Sharda Dyan Peetham- Pandit Vasant Gadgil.
Ezekiel Isaac talked about Torah, he added to his speech saying that he was not there to represent only the Jewish community but to represent all present there, “Torah says, what is hateful or hurtful to you, don’t do such things to others, also don’t talk ill for others. Don’t go to the temple to put flowers in the feet of God. Instead, fill your house with the fragrance of love. Don’t bow down to God but first, bow down to your fellowmen. Don’t ask for forgiveness from God but forgive the one who is at fault according to you.”
The whole planet needs such conferences for World Peace and Humanity. Violence and terror is not the solution to any problem. It leads to nothing but hatred amongst human beings,” said Acharya Dr. Lokesh Muni. He is a writer, poet and also a social reformer.
Acharya Lokesh Muni further in his speech said, “This is such a noble initiative started at MIT and if we all learn to come together frequently and try to reach the roots of conflicts which the world is facing today, then there are ways open to find a solution.”
Prof. Dr. Vishwanath D. Karad said addressing the conclave, “Hindu is not a religion but it is the way of living. The way of dressing can differ from person to person but it should not differ your soul from uniting with another human. Swami Vivekanand whom we remember as the noble son of India had included in his speech at world parliament that India will emerge as the symbol of humankind in the 21st century.“
Bhante Rahul Bodhi said, “Buddha means science and logic. Peace and harmony come in our lives from the human heart and mind. We’re responsible for disturbing the society. In the era of the nuclear bomb, greed and hatred spread violence only.”
Don R. Clarke said, “The World Peace Dome of MIT-WPU is the symbol of Peace and Humanity to the whole world. Today the most important factor the world seeks for is Peace and the peace is within you. One should not act hurtful to others.”
Dr. Prof. Meher Master Moos said, “Zoroastrian has great contribution in world peace. With good thoughts, good words, good deeds, be happy- make others happy.”
Arif Mohammad Khan said, “India has humanity in diversity. Such programs give common grounds to come together for a cause that is World Peace. East or West, it belongs to God, whatever the direction you turn, you’ll find God.”
“the essence of all religions is you do good to others is merit and you do bad to others is the demerit. Islam doesn’t give them permission to hurt anybody on the planet.”
Pandit Vasant Rao Gadgil said, “Light is the symbol of knowledge. Religion lies within our heart, not in temple, masjid, church or agiyari. India has great respect for mothers, Islam keeps mothers on top. All the religions today has only one motto that is Vishwakalyanam and Vishwashanti.”
Prof Gautam Bapat compared the function and gave the vote of thanks.
