♠ Editorial Notes : HWPL WARP Office

Spring that bring the world full of life has come.
Spring resembles words like life, light, hope and beginning.
The world, all people, and everyone from children
to elders should enjoy the meaning of such words.
Though the world has somehow fallen to a state that finding gold in
an open field has become easier than finding these words.

But we can change this.
Here at HWPL WARP Offices, religious leaders are working
with high inspirations to restore us such values.

Historically, lots of conflicts were started and escalated by religious beliefs.
What if there was no promise of god of giving the land of Canaan
to the offspring of Abraham 4,000 years ago?
And what if the United States of America did not try to use that promise to attract the Jews living in the States during the World War, saying that it world acknowledge the establishment of the Jewish nation in the land of Palestine, to draw from them a great deal of money and technology, would the conflicts between Israel and Islamic countries standing today exist?

During the Crusades, it is true that the armies of Jerusalem did recruit soldiers in the name of God and faith, and even to this day, many terrorist organizations are using violence, saying that it is God’s will to build Islamic states.
Also have seen the Khalistan issue and the brutal massacre and retaliation of the Hindues to the Sikhs for murdering Mahatma Gandhi, it is evident that lopsided religious beliefs have worsened problems.

Now at HWPL WARP Offices, religious leaders have undertaken works to find which religious scripture is the most trust worthy through religious dialogues, based on the agreed principles that constitutes a trustworthy scriptures.
Through discussions and dialogues based on religious scriptures, which form the source of religious doctrines and beliefs, we can find truth that embraces all religion; and when we have become one within that ruth, we will be able to extinguish flames of war completely.

1st HWPL Sweden Gothenburg WARP Office

The Sweden Branch of HWPL delivered great news from the Scandinavian Peninsula. On January 23, the first WARP Office meeting in Gothenburg was held, making it a great start to the new year. While participants actively discussed and held scripture dialogues in Stockholm and Malmo WARP Offices in 2015, words of mouth quickly spread to religious leaders in Gothenburg to start their own WARP Office meeting in 2016.

Just as news for peace starts to disseminate in Sweden, we anticipate world peace is not merely a remote goal. Religious leaders, who have earnest hearts for peace, gathered at the 1st Sweden Gothenburg WARP Office and discussed on the topic of ‘Peace According to the Scriptures.’ Let’s explore the responses to various questions from each representative of Islam, Krishna and Sikhism.

Does Your Scripture Have Records of When and How a Peaceful Nation Will Come?

Agha Yahya Khan (Islam/ The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Chief Imam) | “The Quran states that the peaceful nation will come when we achieve one nation, and accepting a common belief. And Quran calls upon all religion who have one belief, and that is the belief of God. All people come between us and upon Allah. The main conflict between religions is God, and it is a common ground to join hands.

Second this is achieved only through absolute justice in every moment of life. And we should act according to the justice and have righteousness and share the things of Allah. These two points demonstrate how there is a peaceful nation.”

Jahnava Karunamayi (Krishna/ Gothenburg Krishna Monk) | “There are many scriptures, which facilitate the principles. So the religious leaders must know how to facilitate all, and they can work with what they have in their hearts. And religious leaders must make sure they can work with others to make a peaceful society. And it is important for us to change our diet and sacrifice to the world and dedicate to God who is the most powerful. We all belong to him as he has different names of God, but it is the same no matter which religion we belong to.”

Amrik Singh (Sikhism/ Gothenburg Sikh Teacher) | “We have to have peace within ourselves. If in a cup there is no peace then all you can do use it for is as a paper, but if you have peace in it, then you can pour and give it to someone else. Peace is vital and it is always throughout history.”

Kevin Sung (Religious study/ HWPL WARP Office Research Specialist) | “Peace in Hinduism is that when God is within us, we realize that we are within him, so then peace will come. Buddhism helps people remove the confusion caused as a result of their ego by practicing the Noble Eightfold Path. It describes that when people remove greed, peace and heaven will come, leading to the most peaceful world and heaven. Also, in the Islamic Quran it says that God leads those who follow him to a peaceful way, and from darkness to light.

In Matthew chapter 24 and the Book of Revelation of the Christian Bible, there are specific prophecies about the world of peace, which are recorded to be fulfilled at an appointed time. That time will be the last days, when Jesus Christ who shouted peace comes.

All religious scriptures have records about Peace. Both believers and non-believers in the world truly look forward to usher ina peaceful world. If religious leaders are at the forefront of collaborating and calling for peace, we may anticipate to live in that peaceful world, sooner.

Each Religion Is Shouting for Peace but Why Haven’t Wars and Conflicts of the World Ended?

Agha Yahya Khan (Islam/ The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Chief Imam) | “Religion, and its principles and teachings, is love and there is no religion that teaches conflict. There are these things because there is misinterpretation and misunderstanding and is used only for their own good. And every religious conflict will come to an end because the religious teachings are in concern as they have a strong bond with the Creator. Justice is being the guide and will manifest evil.”

Jahnava Karunamayi (Krishna/ Gothenburg Krishna Monk) | “If I am an enemy of peace, we also need to transform ourselves in the heart. Almost everybody has souls and they are pure. Enemies, the enemies of God, make us to be exposed to bad things. True love is what we need and that is serving God because we are God’s children, and we can only control ourselves when we transform lust to love. God can purify us so we need this. And that is why peace is not achieved because we don’t practice it.”

Amrik Singh (Sikhism/ Gothenburg Sikh Teacher) | “Religions vary, there will always be conflicts. We have to face each and every day, and it is about choice and what you do. So it is a matter of choice.”

Kevin Sung (Religious study/ HWPL WARP Office Research Specialist) | “Hinduism or Buddhism say that because of people’s desire or anger wars and conflicts will not end. The Christian Bible says that with their lips people are seeking to perceive the will of the scripture and to find God, but their hearts are very far. These people attack and prosecute others, who go against their will, which may lead to conflict and war in society. If religious leaders are like this, then their followers who have been taught under them will also be like them, and so there will be no end to conflicts.”

The responses emphasized the importance of knowing the truth, the one that eradicates evil, within scripture in order to put an end to wars and conflicts. They also underlined that we have to change first if we hope for the world to change, regardless of which religion we belong to. We hope these written responses move the hearts of religious leaders throughout the world to actively pursue the work of peace through participating in WARP Offices.

What Is the Role of Religious Leaders in Achieving Peace?

Agha Yahya Khan (Islam/ The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Chief Imam) | “The religious leaders can guide mankind to the beautiful places of peace and love. It is a religion that takes the main role and religion rules over hearts and souls. Leaders should seek differences in opinions to achieve world peace and guide them and the minds of the people. And we should also promote world peace and religious studies.”

Jahnava Karunamayi (Krishna/ Gothenburg Krishna Monk) | “God is so powerful and religious leaders have to get out of the safe area and start thinking. We don’t understand, but we need to try and try to step forward and this is important, teach others. So we should find ourselves and also do a spiritual diet. We need to save the animals and have spiritual understandings. So I am thankful for this and this is great for peace.”

Amrik Singh (Sikhism/ Gothenburg Sikh Teacher) | “In Shikism there is choice which you can choose, and it is important for the leader to communicate with people. When the leader tries to communicate it is important to listen.”
Kevin Sung (Religious study/ HWPL WARP Office Research Specialist) | “The key word in all religious scriptures is ‘knowledge.’ If you don’t know, you cannot believe or put it into action. The most important thing, however, is to know whether it is correct knowledge or wrong knowledge. The standard of knowing whether it is correct or wrong is the religious scriptures.

If we realize the will of the scriptures and put it into action then we will try to fill our hearts with the good knowledge. If you don’t know the will of religious scriptures, however, you will have faith that is being led by your own thinking. The role of religious leaders for world peace, firstly, is to always reflect themselves in the scriptures and check whether they are sharing the correct knowledge to their followers.”

A flower of peace will soon blossom in Sweden as religious leaders who participated in the WARP Offices clearly perceive their roles in bringing peace and put them into actions. Participants mutually agreed upon their needs and responsibilities to bring peace, they pledged to further participate in the Scripture dialogue through upcoming WARP Office meetings.

“HWPL is doing a really wonderful job. We religious leaders, and all leaders in small level or high rank they should sit together. If we will sit together, we will respect each other and their opinions. One thing that is common between us is the Creator. All religious leaders should sit together. And then we can create a heavenly world.”

At present, 142 WARP Offices in 70 countries are being held every month, where various religious leaders contrast and compare their scriptures for a better mutual-understanding.

Members from a vast group of religions were represented at the scene, namely, Father Ron Bennett representing the Catholic Church, Mr. Paradza Kuyakwenzara from the Christian Science, Janita Hargoven from Brahma Kumaris, Ras Mweli Mabhikwa from Rastafarian.

When asked what role religious leaders can play to make sure there are no conflicts because of religion Mr. Ras Mweli Mabhikwa said “Religious leaders must stick to the truth especially the Christians. They must not twist the Bible to suit what they need especially for monetary gain because religious leaders are supposed to be spiritual leader. They must speak the truth boldly.”

Reverend Mathias Tsine also said “People must tolerate one another for peaceful co-existence and religious leaders must learn to tolerate one another and accept other religions.”
Under the theme “Understanding Religion” religious leaders talked about “Who is the founder of your religion, when was it founded and where is its place of origin?” and “Through what event did it begin and how will it end?” In addition, they also had an open discussion about how one can reconnect and understand God.

Through the meeting, each religious leaders cleared misinterpretation of different religions and were led to a deeper acceptance of each religion’s standards and teachings which steer towards the accomplishment of peace.

With the support from participants, HWPL WARP Offices are being operated all over the world. The ultimate goal of the office is solve the conflicts caused by the difference of religion, which make up more than 80% of the whole conflicts

On March 31st, 2016 Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL) hosted the World Alliance of Religions for Peace (WARP) Office event at Bronte Hotel.

The first message to achieve world peace through uniting religions started at the WARP Summit in South Korea in September 2014.

The host Mr. Man Hee Lee said, “Since 80% of wars in the world are religiously motivated, interfaith harmony is the necessary factor in the achievement of world peace and in order to unite all religions religious leaders need to compare and contrast each scripture.”

Speakers included JanitaHargoven representative of Brahma Kumaris, ParadzaKudyakwenzara from Christian Science, Zimbabwe Council of Churches Representative David Mangemba, and Catholic Father FradereckChiromba.

JanitaHargoven showed confidence in achieving peace through contrasting and comparing religious scripture saying, “We have come to understand that they [religions] are one and the same [through the WARP Office].”

ParadaKudyakwenzara added that, “We all love peace and I think it is possible to bring religions together by contrasting scripture as we shared with my colleagues.”

He continued in saying that it was his first time to see an organization [like HWPL] all diverse religions together.

With the recent terrorist attacks remind all of us the urgency of peaceand religious harmony, it is imperative that all religious leaders take part in this work to cease all wars and achieve the ultimate goal of humanity, world peace.

Singapore hosts HWPL WARP Office for inter-religious harmony, world peace.

Singapore – Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL, Chairman Man Hee Lee) Singapore branch hosted the HWPL WARP (World Alliance of Religions’ Peace) Office, Dialogue of Scriptures event on March 30, 2016. The theme of the dialogue was, “Why were men created to experience the process of birth, ageing, sickness, and death?” This has been and will be the most important question humankind has attempted to resolve.

Members of International Women’s Peace Group (IWPG) and International Peace Youth Group (IPYG) attended the dialogue as an audience. Speakers included Redhuan Malik representing the Islamic perspective, Subala Das from Hare Krishna (Hinduism), and a Christian scholar Craig Gardner.

The representative of the Islamic perspective spoke according to the Quran. “When God created man (first man Adam), He used dust”, and since this time people have been born of Adam’s seed (semen). Humans after birth attain maturity and move imminently towards death, which is a process sometimes referred to as, “the worst part of life”, in the Islamic scriptures. “So death is natural for humans, but after death human beings return to Allah.” He added that the whole process of birth, aging, sickness, and death is because God chose to test every individual, to see what good one can make and give to others and of themselves in this world. The speaker noted that we are under the will of God, but we are given choices to make between good and evil. “According to their deeds they will enter heaven or hell.” In addition, about sickness, he mentioned that “all the bad things are not from God and the blame is on ourselves, nothing bad comes from God.”

Based on the Upanishads, Subala Das said, “man was never created…God (Krishna) is eternal, he is always living and has a blissful spiritual body (Soul). We have it too, but we have left the eternal spiritual world and came to the material world which is full of darkness.” The human body goes through the process of birth to aging and sickness and death, but the soul is everlasting. He also added that according to our good or bad deeds humans will go to heaven or hell and await reincarnation. In addition to reincarnation, a person will get a new body of any species according to one’s dominant thoughts or desires in the before-life. The human body is achieved by the evolution of the spirit, which is reflected by the evolution of the body (from insect body to human body). Their scriptures say a human being is highly distinguished from animals, because only the human body can search after God and achieve god-conscience or the ultimate perfection of life by chanting the holy name of the God. So the whole process of birth to death is a natural and a must-go-through process for the soul to achieve eternal life in the heavens.

Christian scholar Craig Gardner shared about the life and death according to the Bible. “The life began when God breathed a breath of life into man. However, as a result of humanity’s sin, God had to leave them. Since then, the link between God and human was cut off and that is when the death began.” He continued, “so we can only obtain life by staying with God and to do so, we have to do according to his will.”

The participants had their questions on life, ageing, sickness and death resolved after the dialogue, but moreover, they were impressed because it was a dialogue based on the religious scriptures. They said they were able to understand many religions through the dialogue.

Participant Risa Lee, conveyed the impression, “if all the religious leaders hold this kind of dialogue in advance, the world will be full of peace instead of war.”

On the 14th of March, HWPL held a Proclamation Ceremony of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War in Seoul, South Korea. It is attracting attention from politicians, legal experts and the media all around the world, as it brings out a practical solution for world peace by banning production of weapons, and eliminating every potential of war as well as the solving of religious conflicts.

Interview about HWPL WARP Office

“

There are many peace conferences in the world.
But the most distingushed difference between HWPL WARP Office Meetings and
other conferences is that leaders of religions are not talking about their own opinions.
The dialogue is based on scriptures of each religion

”

“The biggest thing that I have seen in HWPL is the devotion and dedication of the people of HWPL for the cause of peace.
I think that is the reason why we have seen such a tremendous growth around the world in HWPL activities. And also, more and more people are coming to HWPL.
This is something unique that is not found in other peace groups and interfaith alliances.”

<Waqas Ahmed Syed>
Deputy Secretary General of ICNA South West

“The WARP Offices have reached 53 countries within a year, accomplishing an impossible feat. And I believe in my eyes I have realized supernatural work is going on and god is handling these things. That’s why the impossible became possible.”

<Bijaya Kumar Pattnaik>
Chairman of D.A.N.I.E.L.S International

“There are many peace conferences in the world.
But the most distingushed difference between HWPL WARP Office Meetings and other conferences is that leaders of religions are not talking about their own opinions.
The dialogue is based on scriptures of each religion.”

<San Van>
Founder of Cambodian Buddhism Association for Vulnerable Children(CBAVC)

“More religious leaders must be present because it is very important to accelerate and expand the peace effort in all living areas. Also, dialogue should be based on scripture so that the people do not read the scripture literally but are able to have a new understanding through reading the scripture with new eyes.”
