Imagine a world where the boundaries we’ve drawn between ourselves—of religion, nationality, color—
cease to exist. Picture a society where, instead of focusing on what makes us different, we celebrate what
unites us as people. A world where every person is seen as part of a single, united family—as ancient
Indian wisdom, Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, calls it. In such a world, there would be no wars, atrocities,
violence, or crime, for we would recognize that by harming another, we harm ourselves.
