The Parliament of the World’s Religions was created to cultivate harmony among the world’s religious and spiritual communities and foster their engagement with the world and its guiding institutions in order to achieve a just, peaceful and sustainable world. To accomplish this, individuals and communities are invited who are equally invested in attaining this goal. The 2015 Parliament begins on Thursday, October 15th.

This unique gathering brings together thousands of people from different faiths to dialogue with one another. The Parliament meets only once every four years and this is the first time in over 20 years that the Parliament has been held in the United States.

The Parliament of the World’s Religions seeks to promote inter-religious harmony.

Each day from 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m., Langar, a vegetarian meal that brings people together around sharing the meal, will be shared at no expense to Parliament attendees as a gift of the Sikh tradition.
