| Prayers recited by Imam, Budhist Priest, Rabbi and Minister. This was the breaking of the Ramadan Fast, crossing all barriers toward a greater peace for humanity.
Ramadan is not only the time for fasting, it is also a time that all earthly pleasures are put aside during the time of fast. It is time for self purification and reflection with the oneness of Allah.
Living in a state of global turmoil is the time to promote good will and understanding towards fellow men, no matter what their religious belief is, the color of their skin, their nationality or ethniticity. Love rather than hate conquers all.
