In addressing Baden-Powell on his book “Rovering to Success” (1922
edition), he said:

“I think if every fellow studied a little of his own body and how it
works he would quickly gain a new idea of the miraculous handiwork
of God and would realise how He is actually active in your body as
well as in your mind.
“And when, as some of you have done, you see these wonderful bodies
of His with all their complicated, beautifully fitted living mechanisms
smashed, destroyed or maimed by man-made bombs and shells in
man-made battles over man-made villainies, you will feel that there
is something wicked and profane about war.”


There is little doubt that one of the most recurrent themes in Baden-
Powell’s books and speeches is the idea of Scouting as a worldwide
brotherhood, able to inspire feelings of tolerance, fraternity,
understanding, fairness and justice on earth.

Thus, in “Scouting for Boys” he said: “Kim was called by the Indians
“little friend of all the world”, and that is the name that every Scout
should earn for himself.”


In “Aids to Scoutmastership”, emphasising the subject of
brotherhood, he wrote: “Scouting is a brotherhood – a scheme which
in practice, disregards differences of class, creed, country and colour,
through the indefinable spirit that pervades it – the spirit of God’s
gentleman.”


He saw the Promise and Law as a way to prevent wars and conflicts:
“It is the spirit that matters. Our Scout Law and Promise, when we
really put them into practice take away all occasion for wars and
strife between nations.”


He clearly saw a link between the development of peace in the
world and Scouting’s aim. In this respect, in the October 1932 issue
of “Jamboree”, he wrote: “Our aim is to bring up the next generation
as useful citizens with a wider outlook than before and thereby to
develop goodwill and peace in the world through
comradeship and co-operation, in place of the prevailing rivalry
between classes, creeds and countries which have done so much in
the past to produce wars and unrest. We regard all men as brothers,
sons of the one Father, among whom happiness can be brought only
through the development of mutual tolerance and goodwill – that
is through love.” 11
His perception led him to write in the “Headquarters’ Gazette”, first
in June l912, and again in April 1914, that: “The first step of all
(towards international peace) is to train the rising generations – in
every nation – to be guided in all things by an absolute sense of
justice. When men have it as an instinct in their conduct of all affairs
in life to look at the question impartially from both sides before
becoming partisans of one, then, if a crisis arises between two
nations, they will naturally be more ready to recognise the justice of
the case and to adopt a peaceful solution, which is impossible so long
as their minds are accustomed to run to war as the only resource.”


For B-P, this will for peace is also instilled in former Scouts and
Guides. Writing in 1931 and again in 1937, he said: “Several further
millions exist among the adults who have gone through our training,
not only in character, health, and active helpfulness and patriotism,
but in the larger sense of friendship and brotherhood with one
another irrespective of class or creed or country, in countries foreign
to our own.

Thus there is growing up a leaven, small at present but increasing
daily, of men and women in each nation, imbued with mutual
comradeship for one another and with the definite will for peace.”

Salam pengakap!
Thanks 4 inviting me to this group. Can we get peace? Peace is a subjective matter. Different people have different concept of peace. For the elder, quiet at night without any disturbance might be considered as a peaceful night. For the babies, being hugged by their mother means they are secured. How could we get peace. PEACE only can be obtained from the religion we believed in; for those who really practised and devoted in their religion.
