To all on earth,
Buddha holds a compassion for all living creatures equally andpropagates with the holy word that we must love each other and protectall living creatures. This is the only way to build a peaceful andprosperous world for all of us.
It’s not one man’s task to do but a task for us together to accomplish.We need to unite to establish this day as World Peace Day.
We need to unite regardless of age, race, sex or personal vengeance toreach the goal of World Peace Day, with all weapons laid down andgrateful hearts full of joy.
April the 8th in Chinese Lunar calendar (May 24th, 2007; May 12th, 2008and May 2nd, 2009 in solar calendar) is the birth date of Sakyamuni.It’s a day that brings hope and praise to the first Buddha andcelebration to all creatures on the earth. Therefore World Peace Dayshould be a holy day of peace. On this day, the ultimate goal should bethe lay-down of arms in all the war zones. It’s a day without killing.The butchers lay down their knives for a day; all people stop thekilling for one day and become vegetarians to appreciate the sacrifice.May the birthday of Sakyamuni be the World Peace Day.
Peace is a desire sought by all of us. Only in a world of harmony, canwe all enjoy our life. With our brothers and sisters at war zones, noneof us could sleep soundly at night. The more peace we bring, the moreharmonious our mind can become. Animals and humans have but littledifference (givers and takers) and all partake in the cycle of life andeach part being an integrate part of each other. In killingsenselessly, we lose our human nature of appreciating the life of acreature. To stop the killing for one day is an awakening on how muchwe rely on the lives of others. Putting down the knives and huntingnets for a single day is a return to one’s nature.
We all have the same creator and originated from the same sauce. Weshare this living planet all value life the same. As humans we shouldhave the intelligence to choose the noble choice, responsible enough tochoose peace and capable enough to pick the right choice.
On the earth both humans and animals alike fear death. Both animals andhumans are in the state of struggling. Therefore, we, as humans shouldtreat them as equal creatures instead of a food source.
May the World Peace Day be established in your palace of worship and inyour heart. Let’s strengthen the unity of life and celebrate our ownvalue. Let tomorrow be the day, let every day be the day.作者: 宏元 时间: 2010-3-6 10:24
