A Symposium on

Conflict Resolution – Internal and External

Most diseases in human beings are a result of internal stresses and conflicts in the human body. Similarly, most conflicts in a society are because of its inherent disputes that remain unresolved.

Conflicts create disharmony. Many a times we find them before the Court of Law to be adjudicated, however, one of the parties always remains unsatisfied. As the interpersonal dispute lingers on, it creates long term fault lines in society. On the other hand, if we can resolve these conflicts with participation of the individuals themselves, we may see a closure to the satisfaction of all the parties.

Yoga deals with understanding human psychology and provides means to minimise the development of internal conflicts, by helping bring clarity, harmony, and stability to the human mind.

Judicial Mediation helps parties to a dispute come to a resolution by helping them get clarity and providing them a path to take their decisions towards resolution of their conflict.

This symposium will discuss some of the fundamental issues related to conflict resolution, and how a synthesis can be achieved for finding both internal and external resolution.
