Eternal peace flame in Oslo
At a ceremony in Oslo, there was a re-dedication of the Eternal Peace Flame - a powerful symbol and hope for peace. The Eternal Peace Flame was offered to the city of Oslo by Sri Chinmoy in 2001. For many years, the Eternal Peace Flame had a temporary home on the sea front. Now a permanent place has been found in a beautiful surroundings of Holmenkollen - overlooking the city. Next to the flame, there is now also a statue of Sri Chinmoy - a powerful work of art to represent the peace-loving life and spirit of Sri Chinmoy, the founder of the Oneness-Home Peace Run.
The ceremony was joined by members of the Peace Run, and several dignitaries.
