World peace flame

The World Peace Flame is a symbol of peace, unity, freedom and celebration. It has been burning since July 1999, when seven flames, lit by peacemakers on five continents, were flown by military and commercial aircraft to the United Kingdom.
On 31 July 1999 they were brought together and united into one flame in Bangor, North Wales. The World Peace Flame is now being passed from person to person and lit by thousands of people daily as a dedication to peace. The World Peace Flame is bringing hope to millions of people worldwide.
There are World Peace Flame monuments in a number of cities around the world:
#The Hague (Netherlands, in front of the peace palace)
#North Wales (home of the World Peace Flame in the snowdonia mountains)
#Venlo (Netherlands)
#Cadzand (Netherlands)
#Memphis (USA, National Civil Rights Museum)
#Riemst (Belgium)
Criticism
The World Peace Flame was founded by Mansukh Patel and the dru yoga Foundation (formerly called Life Foundation School of Therapeutics Ltd). Mansukh Patel is a controversial spiritual leader and the dru yoga Foundation is often regarded as a cult.
