He is a man of lofty ideals, wishing above all that mankind should be able to live in peace by the bacon of teaching of religions, idolizing the truths, and willing to fight for idealism, “Dharma Leads the World.” As a firm practitioner of mind training for the ultimate purity of his psychic power, he practices real asceticism and lives on strict vegetarianism, while keeping himself aloof of all conventional social orbits. He has a miraculous brain power, for he can handle all sorts of problems and questions with extraordinary intelligence and considerateness, one rarely finds his equal.

Eversince 1965  when he was strongly determined with a dedication of his life to work for the benefit and peace of all mankind, he has drawn inspiration and  faith of the people from all walks of life who helped create the following institutions to support the World Peace Envoy in his endeavour  for  world eternal peace:-

The resulted of this referendum was handed in 1980 by Dr. Suchart  Kosolkitiwong to H.E. Dr. Rudiger von Wechmar, President of United Nations, and H.E.

Although young in his age, his initiative drive for peace and happiness of all mankind has been greatly appreciated and supported by millions of followers.

While  serving as the Director in the Executive Committee of the House of  Divine Sages, he had extensive travelling to all parts of the country giving speeches on morality to military units in the border lines, and students in schools and universities over the country, and was on pilgrimage to Burma, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, and the United States.

During those years, before his being elected as President of the International Federation of Religions, he had mainly directed all his works towards the creation of world peace. It was found that he had written his idea on peace to prominent key figures of powerful nations as well as world leaders who could contribute to the maintenance of world peace.

On 25th February 1975, he wrote to H.E. Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, then Secretary of State, United States of  America, a personal letter in which he condemned peace dialogue through political channels.

“…in writing this letter to you today, I have been somewhat puzzled by the stand taken by the humankind of this world, both the Free Democracy and Communist Bloc, in that their hearts and their lips speak differently when they chant about peace…. I really cannot understand it, and, therefore, decide to write you this message to enquire whether you gentlemen are really talking about true peace or you are just merely lying to the people the world over….

….We, on our part, are doing every thing possible to build the religious brotherhood of all faiths. I have also come to a firm conclusion that peace can only come about after all contending parties have reached a common conviction that peace can only  be secured by the vibration of the mind and not merely by wordpower of the lips.

I have, therefore, felt that time has now come for all of us to use religion as the instrument for peace, so that we can stop once and for all those wanton destruction of human lives….

A permanent peace for this human world could materialize only when leaders of both contending camps can speak sincerely from their hearts. If both parties can really come, we should organize a big ceremony for true peace by issuing a communiqué calling for the dismantling of all types of armaments so that they could be smelted down into the statues and images of all prophets and gods. For, peace can never endure when all parties are still piling up their arms. The seed of wrath, of illusion, and of greed, whenever it springs up, can turn the man all of a sudden into a killer. Once, a trained mind can penetrate and absorb the bliss of Dharma, such gentle phenomena could generate the power that will overcome all obstacles to the mighty tower of real and everlasting peace…”

In his letter, dated 16th January 1975, to H.E. Leonid Brezhnev, Chairman of Supreme Presidium of U.S.S.R., he presented his views on peace as follows:

“….True peace will only emerge on this world through the search for means to end conflicts in the ways of life of our human society. I consider, therefore, that the course of action inspired by Communist Doctrines cannot produce real peace. On the contrary, it will divide the world into blocs and factions. It cannot consolidate the world into one harmonious society….

….If peace is truly your ultimate goal, one thing that we should strive to accomplish is to explore the solution to current conflicts, so that a firm pedestal for world peace could be built. Such means cannot be found in any medium but inside the human mind, from which the forces of righteousness, morality and contentment could spring forth and make wonders.

I am firmly convinced that ever since this world was opened up for human habitation, the means to produce peace rests either in the man’s mind as characterized by his conviction on morals, honesty and faith in religion. Such are the forces that produce real and everlasting peace…..

….Alas, it is only too rare to find someone courageous enough to stand up amidst this maniacal world and rally for the means to end contemporary conflicts and schisms. I now take this first step out to Solicit your cooperation for the building up of brotherhood of mankind and fraternity of religions…”
