Awareness about True Spiritual Knowledge is the key to Calm the War
As we can clearly see every nation has different reactions to the war and continuously trying to end the war and establish peace. But a war starts when people are unaware about the wealth of true spiritual knowledge given by Supreme God Kabir. After getting aware about the wealth of true spiritual knowledge one cannot make a decision to go for a war.
After getting aware about the wealth of true spiritual knowledge one gets the knowledge about what things are good for him and what things are bad for his soul after his death in a longer run. People running behind name and fame have totally forgotten God and his powers but Supreme God Kabir has descended here in the form of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj (from Haryana, India) to let us know about our real aim of life which is salvation.
