WHO WE ARE Out of the ashes of the World Trade Buildings and the ashes of the Pentagon, the ashes of the victims of Flight 93 and of Afghanistan, the ashes of Palestine and Israel, India and Pakistan, Iraq and Colombia, Global Coalition for Peace came into existence, molded on the suffering of those left behind as a vessel containing all the pain, that has violence as a common denominator, transforming it into a conviction of the sacredness of life and the power of non-violence and love. GCFP was formed to join forces with all those working for the unity of the human family where meditation, prayer, educational programs and events will be some of the means used to spread this message. Global Coalition for Peace is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization incorporated in the State of Maryland on May 31, 2002. Its main purpose is to replace violence with love and respect. OUR MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Global Coalition for Peace is: To propagate the importance of non-violence (ahimsa) for an effective and positive societal transformation leading to world peace. To explore and practice the ways in which violence can be replaced by non-violence (ahimsa): in our personal lives (anger), homes (domestic violence), schools (bullying and criminal actions), workplace (harassment and abuse), in sports (intentional injury), daily life (road rage), etc. To support all actions conducive of the unity of human kind regardless of man-made barriers as created by religious, national, ethnic, economic and political differences, To promote universal understanding of the relationship of human beings as a planetary family unit, To uphold the notion of the sacredness of human life, To explore the magnitude and different forms of economic slavery, To promote Satyagraha as defined by M.K. Gandhi as "The Force Borne Out of Truth and Love." |
