Or choose yet another road which takes humty to oneness consciousness: The truth is We Are One. This is our true nature," said Sri Preethaji."Ekam magnifies our intention for peace dispelling violence from the collective human consciousness. The grand festival reached its pinnacle receiving great appreciation from over 25 million peace meditators, leaders, young, and orgsational teams," said Sri Krishnaji.On day 1, Kailash Satyarthi, Nobel Peace laureate while conversing with Sri Krishnaji, said, "Every young person should go beyond the division of caste, class, community, and nationality and unite for the most marginalised and vulnerable children of the world."On the third day, Meng Foon, Race Relations Commissioner for Human Rights from New Zealand appreciated the massive initiative of irradicating discrimination on racial, social, cultural and economic grounds undertaken by Sri Preethaji and Sri Krishnaji.On the fourth day, Erik Solheim - a Former Minister in Norway for the Environment and International Development - joined as the guest.On the fifth day, Mithali Raj, the Captain of Indian Women's Cricket Team participated in the online meditation and said, "Peace is necessary and meditation is the way to attain it. Peace during challenges is when we are mindful and not rush into action when we should not."Mithali Raj also said that COVID allowed her to meditate and live in the present. It addressed her to breathe deeper and not keep running into the future anxieties or past regrets. She has enriched her life in the interlude provided by COVID.On the same day in the evening, ace India shuttler Saina Nehwal also joined as the guest.
