Video #311: Balinese Students Meditate for Seven Minutes of World Peace

Posted on by Yatkara

In Bali, Kadek Eni Marhaeni guided her students at the Business College of Politeknik Negeri Bali in an early observance of Seven Minutes of World Peace — seven minutes of meditation and prayer dedicated to the hope for harmony, unity, and inner peace.

The students also explored the college’s newly created Peace Garden, a serene space designed to inspire reflection and spiritual connection. Soon, aphorisms by Sri Chinmoy will be displayed there, offering daily guidance toward love, compassion, and the oneness of all humanity.

Seven Minutes of World Peace is a global initiative inspired by Sri Chinmoy. Every year on September 21 — the International Day of Peace — people in over 40 countries pause for seven minutes of meditation and prayer, sending their heartfelt intentions for peace into the world. The Bali observance joined this worldwide movement, reminding us all of the power of collective aspiration and the sacred potential of mindful prayer.

Peace is not the absence of war.
Peace is the presence of love
and the oneness of all humanity.
— Sri Chinmoy
