MOTHER TERESA
As a Nobel Laureate in 1979 she was asked: “What can we do to promote world
peace?
An unlikely question to a woman who was neither a head of a State, nor a
pontifical leader in the Vatican. But deep inside, the questioner
recognized the power of a diminutive nun who could overcome the constraints
of cast, creed or religion, and touch the hearts of those who lived in
stench and squalor.
Her down-to-earth answer was: “If we have no peace, it is because we have
forgotten that we all belong to one another. Go home and love your family. In
the following year, India bestowed on her its highest civilian honour,
theBharat Ratna.
