Inner Peace

Aum Sairam

No price is too great to pay for inner peace. Peace is the harmonious
control of life. It is vibrant with life-energy. It is a power that
easily transcends all our worldly knowledge. Yet it is not separate
from our earthly existence. If we open the right avenues within, this
peace can be felt here and now.

Peace is eternal. It is never too late to have peace. Time is always
ripe for that. We can make our life truly fruitful if we are not cut
off from our Source, which is the peace of eternity. The greatest
misfortune that can come to a human being is to lose his inner peace.
No outer force can rob him of it. It is his own thoughts, his own
actions, which rob him of it.

Peace is life. Peace is bliss eternal. Worries mental, vital and
physical do exist. But it is up to us whether to accept them or reject
them. To be sure, they are not inevitable facts of life. Since our
Almighty Father is All-Peace, our common heritage is peace. It is a
Himalayan blunder to widen the broad way of future repentance by
misusing and neglecting the golden opportunities that are presented to us.

We must resolve here and now, amidst all our daily activities, to throw
ourselves, heart and soul, into the sea of peace. He is mistaken who
thinks that peace will, on its own, enter into him near the end of his
life's journey. To hope to achieve peace without spirituality or
meditation is to expect water in the desert.

We will own peace only after we have totally stopped finding fault with
others. We have to feel the whole world as our very own. When we
observe others' mistakes, we enter into their imperfections. This does
not help us in the least. Strangely enough, the deeper we plunge, the
clearer it becomes to us that the imperfections of others are our own
imperfections, but in different bodies and minds.

Whereas if we think of Baba, His compassion and His Divinity enlarge
our inner vision of Truth. We must come in the fullness of our
spiritual realization to accept humanity as one family.
