Rajya Sabha | Advancing World Peace Through Collective Inner Transformation

The World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report 2026 identifies geoeconomic confrontation, misinformation and disinformation, and societal polarization as the three highest-ranked short-term global risks. These interconnected threats weaken trust, divide communities, disrupt cooperation between nations, and increase the possibility that social and economic disagreements escalate into lasting conflict. Sustainable peace therefore requires not only diplomatic negotiation, but also approaches that address the fear, hostility, and division operating within individuals and communities. THE SPH Bhagavan Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam teaches that world peace begins when individuals take responsibility for establishing peace within themselves and radiating it through their families, communities, and societies. Through KAILASA’s Saffron Om and Minutes4Peace initiatives, collective meditation, the Science of Completion, Yoga, Oneness, and trained religious peacekeepers have been made available as practical approaches to peacebuilding. An official KAILASA proclamation records more than *4.3 billion peace minutes since 2012*, demonstrating the large-scale possibility of collective consciousness-based action for world peace.
