Well, that's very simple and profoundly true. That if we recognize that when you get down to the very deepest level, we are good loving beings trying to be in unity with one another as far as we possibly can, as Saint Augustine said. When we recognize that, then even the distant dream of world peace becomes a possibility. And because it is a possibility, it is an obligation. We absolutely must work for it and never say that it's unachievable, as many try to say.
