Friendship between nations has many benefits to the people. Authors like S. Radakrishnan, Bertand Russells and Aldous Huxley have written much about the world community, the world government and the modern Utopia to bring about the world harmony. They all have supported that friendship.
Education and culture are essential and very important for good life. Need of good education, friends, good health, sufficient income, congenial society and favorable government are reasonable ones for any individual and are the common need of all people of the world.
The UNO has the capacity to fulfill all these needs but it has to intensify cultural programs to bring yet closer the nations that are members in it. This can be done by diverting the attention of the nations towards the world culture and the thought of war, hatred, fear, competition can be thwarted. Educational programs should be arranged to give training to all the citizens of the world in agriculture and industries, the particular talents of the individuals in science and arts should be developed for utilizing them in the creative direction.
This could be the aim of the world culture through friendship in the modern age. It is the joint venture of all the nations on the basis of friendship. If an organization is able to perform the duties of friendship then the world will certainly become a cultural and civilized one. The more world organization like the UNO improves the world culture the more development will be there in the world and making it a better place to live.
The significance which is in unity is an eternal wonder.
