Question: Does our silence affect the world situation and the numerous conflict in it? Can silence heal not only individuals but societies on the edge of war or are already engaged in it? Yet Jesus said, I bring not peace, but a sword? At your service .
Guruji (Sri Sri Ravi Shankar) : You know, the world is a mystery. Of course, your silence, your
meditation, definitely can bring peace and make a difference. But if some war has to happen, for the good of the world, it will happen. So, in spite of your prayers, meditation and everything, the war happens, don't be disturbed. Afghanistan war happened. If it's good for the people of Afghanistan, especially the women of Afghanistan. At least now, they are able to walk in the streets. People are able to have entertainment and music. So sometimes, war is good, sometimes it is not good.
Leave that judgment to the nature, to God. From your side, you pray for the peace. You meditate, you do your silence and your wish can definitely bring peace. You know, India and Pakistan were on the verge of war. It was sometime on Tuesday morning, they were going to have war. And we had a big Satsang. Sixty thousand people in Bangalore had a Satsang for world peace on Sunday. Something shifted Monday. Monday evening they changed their minds to war. Otherwise, there would have been a nuclear holocaust.
The whole thing changed. The whole world...it was...all the embassy's had taken people out of India, you know? But just in the nick of time, things changed. So we just leave that part to
the nature because nature is so vast, so unfathomable, you can not always try to gauge it. You know?
