Joy, Oneness + more Americas...
Success is measured by the outer joy. Progress is measured By the inner peace. - Sri Chinmoy

A team of young volleyball players run with the Torch. The participation of enthusiastic
youth gives the World Harmony Run a boost of energy and hope for the future, as we try
to plant the seeds of health and harmony through all the communities that we visit.

Children and adults alike enjoy holding the World Harmony Run Torch. Some make a quiet wish for Peace. Our international runners then take turns speaking to the children in their native languages, leaving the children to guess their nationalities. They don’t just use languages; children worldwide love it when Australians impersonate a jumping kangaroo, making it easy to guess their nation.
— Bansidhar Medeiros, Puerto Rico
