What's wrong about the Nobel Peace Prize?
The name is wrong – the laureate
selection practices are not focused on
nourishing Peace. |
|
|
The word "Peace" feels itself very
uncomfortable when inserted in the "Nobel
Peace Prize" title.
Named after the inventor of dynamite, the
Nobel Peace Prize is awarded in a way so
that it acts like dynamite – it tends to go
to opposition leaders in order to nourish fight
and hate, not peace.

Mahatma
Gandhi, a world greatest apostle of peace and the most inspiring
symbol of non-violent struggle against oppression and discrimination
in the modern era, was nominated several times, but was never
awarded the Nobel Peace prize. |

The
Nobel
Peace Prize has little to do with nurturing peace,
unfortunately.
The Nobel Peace Prize committee, being
national, not international, is apparently
driven by politics, not
love.
They tend to give the prize to opposition leaders
in target countries to nourish conflicts there, not
peace.
At the Nobel Peace Prize
award giving ceremony
laureates tend to talk about
how to fight something − and
rarely
about
how to nourish true and
lasting peace in the
world.
Most Nobel Peace Prize
awardees either don't
know how to nourish peace in
the World or don't want to
do it because they benefit
much more from being rebels.
Sure, the Nobel Peace Prize
committee may support anyone
they wish, but a
proper name for such support
would be a 'Rebel Prize',
not 'Peace Prize'.
Their
far-from-being-noble awardee
selection process is
influenced by politics...
and we all know that there
is hardly anything dirtier
than politics. |

|
Politics are very much like war.
We may even have to
use poison
gas at times. |
Winston
Churchill |
|
Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and
for the same reason. |

Twain |

Love, not Money Rules
The
fact that the inventor of
dynamite donated his
millions to the prize fond
doesn't make the Nobel Peace
Prize committee the World's
best peace experts.
As far as peace is
concerned, love −
not money − rules. |
|
|
Better
is surrender
of
attachment
to results,
because
there
follows
immediate
peace. |
Lord Krishna |
|
An eye for an eye only
ends up making the whole world blind...
Hatred can be overcome only by
love. |
Mahatma Gandhi |
|
You can love a
person dear to
you with a human
love,
but an enemy can
only be loved
with
divine love. |
Leo Tolstoy |
|
If we have no peace,
it is because we have forgotten that we belong to
each other...
Peace begins with a
smile. |
Mother
Teresa |
|
Love
as thought is truth.
Love as action is right conduct.
Love as understanding, is
peace.
Love as feeling is
non-violence. |
Sathya
Sai Baba |

That's how peace is nourished wisely.
Is Nobel Peace Prize awarded in line with
the law of
all-inclusive love?
Not at all. Named after the inventor of dynamite, the
Nobel Peace Prize is awarded in a way so
that it acts like dynamite – it tends to go
to opposition leaders in order to nourish fight, not peace.

"An eye for an
eye only ends up making the whole world
blind," taught
Mahatma Gandhi.
That's what the established Nobel Peace
Prize awarding practice is apparently trying
to achieve. Well, yes, blind people fight
less, but ... is this the best way to
nurture peace on Earth?
Definitely,
not. All-inclusive
love is a far better and the most
effective
peace ambassador.
By the way, Nobel Peace Prize Committee
refused to give the Prize to
Mahatma Gandhi
because this peace giant
didn't fit in their box.
By-the-way-2.
Leo Tolstoy, the World's greatest and
most famous novelist was nominated for Nobel
Prize in Literature, but didn't get it. Why?
His
genius was too huge and didn't fit into
the box of the Nobel Prize Committee. Who
did fit into their box? A novelist no one
heard about. Why did she get the Nobel
Prize? Just because she was in opposition to
her country's President whom Western
politicians didn't like.
