Sri Chinmoy hoped the Peace Run, would help spread the ideals of peace and harmony throughout the world. He wrote:

“This world of ours has everything except one thing: peace. Everybody wants and needs peace, whether he be a child or an octogenarian.”

- Sri Chinmoy [1]

World-peace
Can be achieved
When the power of love
Replaces
The love of power.

- Sri Chinmoy [2]
