Due to interim greed and a desire for dominance, humanity is facing significant violence and environmental destruction, which threaten not only our lives and values but also the future of our planet. The current trend of environmental degradation, social unrest, and economic disparities presents a substantial risk to the planet’s future.
Drawing from the foundational principles of Hindu-Buddhist traditions, which are followed by over one-fifth of the global population and deeply embedded in the cultures of countries such as India and Japan, a non-conflict paradigm can effectively shift global discourse from reactive “conflict resolution” to proactive “conflict avoidance”. It can also move from divisive ideologies to inclusive and harmonious philosophies, emphasizing universal co-existence and mutual respect.
