Can you change the story of your life?
“If you choose to change the story, I’m here to help and I can help. I’ve helped a lot of people. But the most important thing is that there is a lot of hope. If you really understand that you can change the story, there’s a tremendous amount of hope – hope that this life can be fulfilled every single day. And that is a mighty nice hope to have. And not only hope, but the tools to make it real.” -- Prem Rawat
The Message of Peace
Is peace really possible in today’s world? The Words of Peace television series offers an answer that resonates with millions of viewers worldwide. “Peace needs to be in everyone’s life,” says Prem Rawat, whose message is featured on the show. “The peace we are looking for is within. It is in the heart, waiting to be felt. It is not the world that needs peace; it is people. When people in the world are at peace within, the world will be at peace.”
This message is compatible with most religions and philosophies. It is not a religion or philosophy in itself. Students of Prem Rawat come from all walks of life, cultures and backgrounds.
