Inter-Faith Dialog or Intra-Faith Dialog

No comments:
I was invited to attend Inter-Faith Dialog for Peace and Sustainability by International Network of Engaged Buddhists (INEB) in Kuala Lumpur on October 27 to November 5, 2013. The participants were from different countries that had different issues. In the time of conference we learnt from each other how to live in harmony, peace, and sustainability.

The conference aimed to bridge the dialog among people of all religions. Its specific objective is to promote inter-faith dialog, exchange, and collaboration on issues of common concern. In addition to that, the conference tried to increase understanding and engagement with Muslim community because Islam and Buddhism are factually most prevalent religions in Southeast Asia.

The conference succeeded due to support from everyone and now we have to work very hard in order to realize peace and sustainability. In other words, we need strong effort to be agents of change. So, the conference shouldn’t go to waste.
