Synopsis

Human civilizations have gone wrong with respect to either enumeration or the order of the goods for peace. The standard by which humans ought to response to measure and control their intellect, thoughts and actions has not only misconceived and misdirected but also failed to unify the determinants of peace. The principles of utilitarianism and pattern of consumerist violent forces have been imprinted in the human minds leading to civilization decline and will ultimately result extinction of human species from the planet earth. The Peace Technology has identified seven sources of sustainable peace and worked out the modalities of exploration of sources to arouse consciousness of human race and reorient their thoughts and endeavors in all sectors of activities. So, eternal bliss of peace becomes scrutable and implementable to free the humanity from the threat of war, terrorism and other forms of violence, simultaneously redeeming the individual consciousness from his turmoil of strife, role conflicts, disequilibrium, anger, hatred and jealousy.
