Anger and hatred, they destroy our inner peace. Compassion, forgiveness, a sense of brotherhood and sisterhood, contentment, self-discipline, these are the basis of peace - both external peace and inner mental peace. Only through strengthening these inner good qualities can a genuine, lasting peace develop. This is what I mean by spiritual development. I sometimes also describe this as inner disarmament. In fact, in all levels of our existence - family life, social life, working life, and political life - inner disarmament is, above all, what humanity needs.
His Holiness The Dalai Lama, “ESSENCE OF THE HEART SUTRA - The Dalai Lama’s Heart of Wisdom Teachings”, Translated and Edited by Geshe Thupten Jinpa, Wisdom Publications, 2005.

[someone] has said, “Until there is peace between religions, there can be no peace in the world.” People kill and are killed because they cling too tightly to their own beliefs and ideologies. When we believe that ours is the only faith that contains the truth, violence and suffering will surely be the result… [ ] “Do not think the knowledge you presently possess is changeless, absolute truth. Avoid being narrow-minded and bound to present views. Learn and practice nonattachment from views in order to be open to receive others’ viewpoints.” To me, this is the most essential practice of peace.
Thich Nhat Hanh, “Living Buddha, Living Christ”, Penguim Books, 1995.
