Synopsis

This book points out the essential reasons why peace in the world and cooperation among people, communities, and nations have been so difficult to establish. It also advises the only way real peace and harmony can be achieved. In order for peace and unity to exist, we must first realize what barriers and divisions keep us apart. Only then can we break down those barriers to see the unity that naturally exists between us all. Then, rather than focusing on our differences, it is easier to recognize our similarities and common goals. With a common objective, all of humanity can work together to help each other reach that destiny. This book is short and to the point. It is a thought provoking book and will provide inspiration for anyone. It can be especially useful for those working in politics, religion, interfaith, race relations, the media, the United Nations, teaching, or who have a position in leadership in any capacity. It is also for those of us who simply want to spread the insights needed for bringing greater levels of peace, unity, and equality between friends, neighbors, and communities. Such insights include: The factors that keep us apart. Breaking down cultural distinctions and religious differences. Seeing through bodily designations. Our real identity: The basis for common ground. Seeing the Divinity within each of us. How we are all working to attain the same things. What we can do now to bring unity and peace into the world and between everyone we meet. It is time to create a prejudice-free world by seeing the natural common ground and unity that exists between us all.
