the trouble with us, humans, is that we do not yearn for peace. and where is peace? it is within us. our thoughts run haywire and madly go after whatever is easy, pleasurable and which satisfies our senses. instead, if the mind is made to turn inside, it will result in peace. this is the shortcut to peace which has been given to us by thousands of self-realized souls to humanity. we do not educate the children, youth and the old on this simple philosophy. it's a simple tip. the extensive consumerism, the mad rush after gratification of our senses is taking the toll gradually. against this extreme. Perverted attempts to curb the after effects of consumerism in the form of terrorism, fundamentalism will go nowhere in solving the problem. let's go after the truth and see how the problems of mother earth gets solved. again - turn inward, be non-violent (to you also), be calm and peaceful. my sincere heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of the deceased and injured, and also to the family and friends of the killer (who was led astray by our own world).

completely agree with you, but there is a long way to go for our civilization to turn inward.
