Human Rights Day

H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s Message on Human Rights Day 10 December 2008

Human rights and responsibility are complementary. Every human being has the right to the resources of our planet earth. Greed and lack of ethics have led to the violation of human rights.

We must assume that we have these rights and not demand these rights from anybody.

There are two things we need to do :

1) Make people aware of their rights ;

2) Bring a sense of responsibility and human values back into society.

A society devoid of responsibility and values will never respect human rights. A complete transformation in society is essential for this to happen.

A stress-free and violence-free society is the birthright of every human being, and a collective effort is needed to bring back human values and a non-violent society
