PEACE
POLES
Peace Poles are also a project of the World Peace Prayer Society
(WPPS) and more than 200,000 such monuments to peace have been planted in 160 countries across the globe, under the aegis of the
WPPS.
Erected with the objective of inspiring thoughts of peace and unity, Peace Poles are obelisks inscribed with the prayer
"May Peace Prevail on Earth", on all four sides. More than half a dozen Peace Poles dot various CMS Branch campuses in different parts of the city of
Lucknow.
Many people have compared Peace Poles to acupuncture pins on the acupressure points of the globe. Some of these Peace Poles have been planted by eminent personalities like the Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa and the Pope.
Peace Poles have been planted at Aliganj, Chowk, Gomti Nagar, Kanpur Road and Station Road Branches of CMS. They were planted by prominent personalities of India with much public awareness built around each planting.
