GYÖR, July 4 2019

On the occasion of 40 years of Yoga in Daily Life in Hungary, 70 years of diplomatic relations between India and Hungary and the 150 year birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhiji, a Sri Swami Madhavananda World Peace Council Conference was organized at the University of Györ Széchenyi István Egyetem.

For almost 30 years, Vishwaguruji has been planting symbolic World Peace Trees around the world, giving people hope and inspiration for World Peace. The Banyan tree that he has planted on India's 70th Republic Day in OM Ashram, has a special significance.

The conference titled Yoga and World Peace and organized by the SSMWPC, a philanthropic NGO in special consultative status with the UN ECOSOC, marked the 15^th anniversary of Paramhans Swami Madhavananda’s Mahasamadhi (final liberation) in recognition of the fact that Holy Guruji’s entire life was an epitome of love and of universal peace - the notion that instigated the establishment of the United Nations.

Sri Swami Madhavananda World Peace Council announces that on March 7, 2018, a World Peace Council Conference will take place on the topic 'Yoga and World Peace'. The conference has been organized by Sri Swami Madhavananda World Peace Council (SSMWPC), in cooperation with the International Day of Yoga Committee at the United Nations, and United Nations Staff Recreation Council (UNSRC) / Enlightenment Society (SEAT). 

In 2010, the first two Carinthian Peace Trees of Vishwaguruji Swami Maheshwarananda, founder of Yoga in Daily Life, were planted in Klagenfurt and Villach, to mark the occasion of 35 years of Yoga in Daily Life in Carinthia. On 7 October 2017, in the presence of representatives of the city of Villach, another living tree, in the Walther von der Vogelweide Park, became a Peace Tree in the hope of inspiring peace on Earth.
