Authors(1) :-Sonalee Barmate

The teachings of the Buddha are based on the morality, ethics and equanimity. He is known as the Spiritual teacher and ethical master of the Tiloka (three world). The Buddha gave his Dhamma among to all visible and non-visible Sattava (beings). According to teaching of the Buddha, Liberty means eradication from all mental defilements which is known as Nibbāna. It doesn’t belong to particular any caste, phylum, race, apartheid or religion. This Liberation can be obtained by any individual. The Bramha Vihāras (Sublime State) teach fraternity toward to all sentient beings. Right now, world is suffering from the injustice, racism, intolerance, inequality, cold war and terrorism. If any country or a being follows or engages in the teachings of the Buddha, surely these problems can be overcome and peace can be established in the world.
