Abdu’l-Baha was the eldest son of Baha’u’llah. When Abdu’l-Baha passed away on 28 November 1921, He was eulogized as One who led humanity to the “Way of Truth,” as a “pillar of peace” and the embodiment of “glory and greatness.”
In this talk titled ‘Making Peace Our New Year’s Resolution’, shared in Vancouver, Canada on 16 February, 2016, Dr. Hossain Danesh discusses aspects of peace and conflict. He explores the concepts of conflict as the absence of unity, conflict-free conflict resolution, and education for peace.
Dr. Hossain Danesh is the Founder and President of the International Education for Peace Institute, retired professor of Psychiatry (University of Ottawa) and Peace Studies and Conflict Resolution (Landegg International University), and author of many articles and 11 books in his fields of specialization.
