Spread Buddhism to the whole world!

I have been reading a book titled "Fundamentals of Buddhism" by Peter D. Santina which seems really awesome to me. The more I am reading it, the more I am being amazed by its rational presentation of various aspects regarding Buddhism. It is known to all that Buddhism was based in south asia and it has spreaded to other continents just recently. Today, more and more people are being interested in its peaceful nature. Nevertheless, it is certain that if Buddhism is to continue to exercise a positive influence upon present and future generations, it cannot remain content with the achievements of the past and present. The book emphasizes that the religious and moral values of Buddhism which have proved so useful to past generations must be transmitted to men and women living in a rapidly changing world. In order to accomplish it, it is important that the teachings of Buddha be made available to the largest number of people.

I totally agree with this concept. To spread Buddhism to all classes of people around the world, we must arrange this type of public demonstrations on Buddhism. We should also arrange debate and discussions on Buddhism in various institutions to raise more awareness on it. The more we will discuss it, debate on it, arrange open discussion on it, the more it will spread to ordinary people of various countries.
