Peaces Poles and A Universal Message that started in Japan

May Peace Prevail on Earth.

A very profound expression in the times we live in. 

The expression "May Peace Prevail on Earth" is a universal message and prayer aimed at fostering inner and global peace. The phrase was coined by a Japanese teacher and philosopher, Masahisa Goi. Mr Goi was deeply affected by World War II and spent his life promoting peace and harmony. He believed that individual peace and global peace are interconnected and that each person can create vibrations capable of influencing the world.

You often see "May Peace Prevail on Earth" on peace poles in Japan. They are monuments specifically designed to carry the inscription, like the one pictured in this post. They also originate from Japan, with the first peace poles erected in 1976, but the movement expanded globally. Today, according to Wikipedia, there are more than 200,000 peace poles in nearly 200 countries. 

If there is power in collective thought, may we all make this simple sentence a daily mantra / prayer, with sincerity and conviction, and May Peace Prevail on Earth.
