Abstract

In the cacophony of modern life, stress and discontentment often stem from distorted perceptions and clinging to fleeting worldly attachments. This paper transcends the traditional view of peace tourism as a mere escape, proposing it as a catalyst for a profound paradigm shift within. By engaging in philosophical discourses, immersing oneself in diverse cultures, and experiencing alternative ways of living, peace tourism can challenge limiting beliefs and cultivate a sense of inner peace. Based upon introspective self-reflection, this research delves into the transformative power of peace tourism as a tool for self-discovery and liberation from the unnecessary shackles of stress. This research includes models like the Tablighi Jamaat, where individuals travel for self purification and engage in dialogues with diverse communities.
