For many, the War on Terror symbolizes an age of violence and international conflict. This seemingly unending state of war prompted my exploration of other less aggressive methods that could have been employed in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. This thesis examines the religious structures of Buddhist anti-war rhetoric and its complex war histories to discover how enlightened discourses and practices of compassion and mindfulness could be deployed to create more productive futures in war prevention and conflict. Primarily using Burgoon and Langer's (1995) and Richo's (2002) notions of mindfulness, I assess how mindfulness as a practice has the potential to generate new ways of language, thought, and action that foster peaceful futures.
