defenseless. Children wait for someone to come and save
them for days in hunger and thirst, left half-naked in this
position. Some cannot endure under this duress and their
exhausted bodies fall dead on the soil.

Not a single mother or father could ever turn a blind
eye to these dire circumstances. While many people are
living in their comfortable, warm homes and striving for
the prosperity of their children, they simply ignore the
cries of children coming from the other corner of the
world. Just putting oneself in their shoes only for one
moment would be adequate to dissolve this recklessness.

Nobody would ever fail to pay heed if their own children
were in hunger, shivering in sickness and tortured right
before their eyes. If necessary, he would risk his own life
to save their lives. Not having met those Arakanese chil-
dren or not being their biological parents is no reason to
stop people from making efforts on their behalf.

The world needs to free itself from this disease of
lovelessness and lack of compassion. There is an intense
indifference in the background in all kinds of hostility and
conflict and again, the same reasons come into play in the

persecution in Myanmar because there is discrimination
regarding race, sect or faith. The world is now waiting for
people who hold love dear, and lead with compassion and
justice to end all the bloodshed and the world is waiting
for understanding, mercy and compassion. The world
seeks guidance: We pray that God shall bring those beau-
tiful days closer when the whole world will embrace love
in its entirety.
