War within
A spiritual discourse on the foundations of inner and societal well-being.
"Spiritual health is respect and tolerance towards every religion, respect for every culture, and understanding towards every nation."
"Why do humans create war? Because war is within themselves. And when you have war within you, then you create war outside."
The speaker outlines a vision of spiritual health rooted in universal respect, citing the Vedic ideal of "Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinaḥ" (May all be happy). The talk connects external conflict to internal turmoil, arguing that war stems from the inner battles of ego and desire. True wealth is redefined as contentment and freedom from endless wanting, while poverty is seen as a state of perpetual longing.
