“The root cause of conflict in any society is the “ego” – be it at the individual, family, social, national or international levels. The more is the ego, the more is the tendency for conflict to grow. In “ego,” a person forgets the broadness that one has and is squeezed to narrowness in which there is little space left for the existence of others. Feeling of co-existence largely ceases to exist in such a state.

Since “ego” is there in the mind, the conflict cannot be addressed until there is a change in the mind-set.

Therefore, the solution of the conflict also lies within.”
