War and violence will not lead to peace, as history has shown us. True peace can only be achieved through a transformation of consciousness. Spiritual thinking and living are necessary for this transformation. Reacting with violence only leads to more violence. Punishing criminals with violence also has its drawbacks, as it can create opportunities for more crimes. While some fear of punishment is necessary for maintaining law and order, choosing violence and war as a means to establish peace is not effective in the long run. Only by expanding our consciousness can we truly understand and achieve peace.
