Introduction
The idea of holistic development for all stems out from following ancient vedic wisdom
which is a part of most of religious rituals in India :
, ,
May all living being be happy, free from pain and suffering, and may
all see good in others and find peace.
However, we find that contemporary materialistic society has emerged out with more
complex social issues leading to unrest, disharmony, inequality, violent minds, erratic
lifestyle, environmental degradation, and unending internal and external conflicts. The
science and technology development has given us sensory pleasures , added comforts
but no inner peace. Global conflicts, cold war and unrest is rising everywhere with no
definite solution. There is erosion of social values
everywhere. Blind practice of
religious rituals devoid of humanity and ignoring consciousness is also a major factor
for the growing crisis. The need for better education and enriching children with right
knowledge is very important in this industrial and materialistic age.

CHANGE SELF
Peace starts from within us from the self the eternal soul, but we ignore self
consciousness due to our ego, and run after physical comforts and materialistic world.
Ignoring self consciousness and caring only for physical body comforts ,we create all
type of problems around us whether it is our self , or our family relations or our society,
or our nation or our world . The unrest that starts from self spills over to world due to our
egoism , the centre of which is self consciousness, which once established by all, will
lead to a better world.
EDUCATIONAL REFORMS
Uniform and Free education till High School
Eductaion system should help build peace and sustainable societies. Education must
inspire to address needs of individual (body , mind and soul ) and society and nature
.School Education system in many nations is very expensive. We have elite and luxury
schools for rich and free schools with very poor infrastructure for poor . Unfortunately,
education today is largely a roaring business catering to the rich, giving them the skills
to get richer. It sponsors competition and hence crime.
The school system today is dividing the children from school age into two classes
haves and have-nots. This economic disparity is major reason for unrest and crime in
the nation. The public schools are expensive and a major portion of parents income
goes for schooling cost for children and brings economic strain /stress on parents
leading to life style evils in society .Both female and male parents have to work hard to
earn enough for school education of children . Society cannot change if we continue
with this system which is dividing the society .Only way out is to free the education till
High School for all .No separate schools for elite rich class. Schools can be
nationalized and a uniform schooling system can start in which rich and poor children
sit together and learn and treat other as human beings.This will also lead to equality and
harmony in society. Funds can be arranged by State thru Social Security Funds .
Social Security Funds are created thru contribution of employees and their employer
as students start earning .Such systems are prevailing in Europe and other countries.
VALUE BASED EDUCATION
Modern children are exposed to violence through childhood by addicting them with
childrens comics, toys and video games, news channels, cinema,TV soaps play it out in
every home and heart. Hence Value Education should be an integral part of school
curriculum. Value Education to include subjects such as democracy , human rights,

bit of variation.

Factory automation should be used for accuracy and quality and not to curtail
manpower.
Government schemes and NGOs should provide freebies like free food, shelter,
cloth etc to disabled or physically unfit , rest poor should be supported by self
sustainable means thru local employment generation schemes .

NGOs in rural pockets can provide support to rural population for better education , skill
development ,self employment schemes and
Government agencies and their projects. Thus NGOs can play a vital role to bridge
gap between local population and Government Schemes and projects.
GOOD GOVERNANCE AND STRICT ACCOUNTABILITY
Spheral democracy should be the structural institutional mechanism for coordination,
balance, proportion and consent (coherence) of political, legal, financial and
administrative processes as a whole, in unity with each other and in harmonious accord
with the SPHERONS (Peace loving people ) interests covering 100% of the population.
India has very poor , slow, and
selfish motives. Political rivals use media to negate reforms and positive development
of government in power. In such atmosphere drastic changes are required where law
can be enforced with strictness.Bureaucrats
should be
suspended
or given
everywhere. The greed to lust and power makes politicians to commit crimes to beat
rivals in elections. There is need to allow only selfless dedicated persons who vow to
renounce ,does not marry so that they can dedicate their life for betterment of their
respective area, like the spiritual leaders and church priests in ancient times.

iii) Adoption of Yoga for purification of mind and body should be an integral part of
society .
iv) Religious processions need to banned if they cause traffic blockage or cause air or
water pollution .
v) Religious Community kitchens providing 24 x 7 food from religious places should
restrict timings. The food should be provided during normal lunch and dinner times and
not 24 x 7 as unlimited

religious organizations providing food should

(selfless ) deeds . Pure thoughts kill the enemy within us i.e. ego ,lust ,anger ,greed
,attachment
as humans
under one social platform. Imagine a society in which all people practice Yoga. This
will reduce conflicts, ego centric problems, will lead to non violence, develop tolerance
and harmonize the society faster.
Yoga is not just doing exercises it means adoption of ethics (for self character and
ethics for behavior in society ), Pranayama for conditioning of breathing system and
purification of mind, asanas to stay physically fit, pratyahaar / detachment ( control of
sense organs ie control of anger, ego, greed, lust, desire etc), concentration (focused
mind and connecting to supreme god ), meditation and enlightenment.
Evils of the society begin from minds leading to rise of hidden enemies within us which
are rise of ego, pride, greed, jealousy, lust, attachment, anger, selfishness, injustice,
cruelty or violence. Thus practice of Yoga is a MIND CHANGER from Violence to
Non Violence. Yoga means union of soul with supreme soul so called intelligent
designer of universe. Thus world can be united thru umbrella of adopting yoga by
all.
Thus practice of yoga will lead for a better self management ,better family and friends
relations, good character and ethics and productivity .The people will be more honest
,efficient, free from addictions such as drugs, smoking and respect women and
humanity.
ISOLATING VIOLENT AND TERROR GROUPS AND NATIONS

The world has violent groups such as North Korea, Pakistan which is home to various
terror groups, China which has conflicts on border issues with almost all its border
nations and Middle East Islamic nations where peace rarely descends. One effective
way could be if all nations start isolating above nations like imposing restrictions on
trade, imports, exports ,diplomatic relations etc. Without support of world, such nations
may not be able to sustain long.
TARGETED DISARMAMENT
Various Global Forums can put pressure on advanced nations to cut down their annual
military budget by 10 % every year and let those funds be used for development of
cheap renewable energy and fighting hunger in poor nations.
Under developed and poor nations should also be persuaded to cut their annual
budgets by 10 % and use funds for welfare of poor .
Future wars are going to be due to scarcity of earth resources such as fossil fuels,
water and Food insecurity. So science and technology must be developed to find
better alternate renewable resources . Budget of nations on Military Science should be
diverted for renewable resources in a phased manner under directions of UNO .
Effective disarmament campaign should be launched at various social platforms over
the globe by existing various global peace forums.

New UN Body for implementation .
CONCLUSION
The article describes how development on areas like education ,economic inequality ,
disarmament, better governance, adoption of yoga will lead to a better future society
which will be more peaceful ,contented ,stable and healthy. The world society needs
firm action plans with support of UNO for implementation and move towards one world
and one parliament.
