World Peace Cafe
Philosophy Behind the World Peace Café
“Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible.” – Ven. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
The vision of the World Peace Café is to serve nutritious and tasteful vegetarian food in a peaceful, warm, and gracious environment that is reflective of the Buddhist principles of loving kindness and respect for all living beings. The café uses natural food products and organic locally grown whenever possible. The café will also serve a variety of specialty and organic teas.
The World Peace Café provides a relaxing, serene environment that is ideal for enjoying a light healthy meal, working quietly on a laptop, reading a book, or chatting with friends over tea. It feels like a true sanctuary in the midst of a busy, stressful world.
A World-wide Model
There are many World Peace Cafés arising swiftly throughout the world, creating an important and beneficial influence for our global society. The first such Café opened in the seaside town of Ulverston, England, in 2002. Since then, other Buddhist Centers around the world have been inspired to open World Peace Cafés as a way of positively impacting their community. The Café in Atlanta is the first full-service World Peace Café in the United States.
