The concept of Anekantavad put forth by Bhagawan Mahaveer is ideal for world peace. When a matter that appears false on the face of it, is considered from several viewpoints, it begins to appear true. If a dialogue between friends, individuals, teacher-disciple, man-wife, employee-employer, between two religions, two regions or two nations, or between the ruler and the ruled, between two parties or coworkers is conducted keeping in view the Anekant principle, all misunderstanding vanishes giving rise to friendship. Discord will make way for an accord. Bhagawan Mahaveer has told us through Anekantvad that if an individual respects another's viewpoint then half the world would settle down in peace.
Thus in the present life Bhagawan Mahaveer's concept of non-violence, detachment and anekant could contribute to true happiness and peace.
