We must change our consciousness at the individual level if we want to spawn and sustain peace at any level. To promote peace in criminal‐justice or other systems, peacemakers must adopt an individual approach, that is spiritually based and ideologically free. We can see these truths best from a Buddhist perspective, which confirms much of what has been written about fields such as peacemaking criminology. Buddhism has also been gaining popularity generally, even in Western nations, as a peaceful philosophy of life and spiritual practice. It offers valuable insights into some of our current social problems, and suggests practical approaches to individual and social change
