Peace is all we need, Peace is all he wants.

He created colors, we created racism

He created Earth, we created global warming

He gave us birth, we learned to kill

He created religions, we created riots

Everything he created, we tried our best to destroy.

Let's do something that he likes, create a better world.

Because, Peace is all we need, Peace is all he wants.

I got an inspiration to write this post after my visit to Jumma Masjid, Ahmedabad.

I entered a mosque for the first time in my life. We had gone there to click pictures. (Luckily) I didn't have a camera so I was just wandering. A regular muslim guy approached me out of curiosity to know where i was from. First he was surprised that belonging to the same city I never visited that mosque. He taught me "Namaaz". I learned entire thing. 

Then he was surprised again when he learned that I was a Hindu. 

Other guys from his group approached me after hearing that. 

Then what came out from a guy's mouth was interesting. 

"Yeh ladnaa to sarkar sikhati hai, humein to doosaron ko haath lagaane mein bhi darr lagta hai. Hamaare gaon mein Hindu log roza rakhte hain, aur hum diwali manaate hain." 

Sounded like a filmy dialogue, but I could see the reality in his eyes. While having a little more conversation, they walked me through entire mosque, a huge, open air, beautiful heritage in the midst of the crowded city.

A peaceful and feel-good heritage walk ended with a group photo. I could feel the song "Maula mere lele meri jaan" from the movie "Chak de".

Peace.
