COTE D'IVOIRE

There is no fear. These eight days of the Art of Living Course changed our perceptions of each other. Our ways are so similar, we are brothers. ADAMA, a member of the Deula tribe

In Cote d'Ivoire, young men from warring tribes—once sworn enemies—sat side by side, finding common ground through shared healing.

KASHMIR

Paigam-e-Mohabbat was an unprecedented peace initiative for Kashmir by Gurudev. A reconciliation program for the familymembers of martyred security personnel, victims of cross-firing and slain militants. Gurudev led critical rehabilitation and trauma relief eŠorts for thousands displaced by the 2005 Kashmir earthquake, demonstrating the transformative power of reconciliation, trust, and forgiveness in conflict zones. I was a district commander carrying a gun constantly. I was engulfed by worries and guilt, relying on sleeping pills. After the program, I gave up violence and my life has changed. FORMER MILITANT
