Sorry, Wolfgang,
Although inner peace of everyone may some day solve global misery I think limiting remedies to cultivating inner peace can be as selfish, divisive and indeed counter-productive as the inner-directed selfishness that sustains the power structures that produce global misery. Healing needs to be at all levels within and beyond existing social structures.
Rights, responsibilities, accountability, transparency, sustainability call for consensus-building and action within existing organizations and the world community as surely and strongly as within individual hearts and minds, and any denial of such many-sided approaches seems to me not only mystical or unrealistic, but also illogical and unfair.
Wishing all inner and outer peace
