A peaceful society is the basis of a prosperous society, and I am happy that world leaders are placing a great deal of importance on recognising and addressing these issues. The theme of this year’s WEF ‘Cooperation in a fragmented world’ resonates with the vision of The Art of Living which started 42 years ago to unite people through a regeneration of human and spiritual values.
Conflict, division and chaos have to be countered with commitment, caring and collective resolve. This can happen only when leaders cultivate the mind to be calm and take considered decisions. We all need to recognise that we live in an interconnected world. There is no substitute for cooperation for the general good of the world.
