Practice peace and change the life

Prem Rawat *

Have you ever dreamt of a world where there are no conflicts, the world where individuals value each other’s existence and live in peace & harmony?

Peace is what every individual alive on this planet desires to perceive, despite his status, religion, caste or creed. But the fundamental question is "what is peace"? The idea and definition of peace may vary with each individual; however it is something that is cherished by each one of us. With all the chaos around the world, is it possible to attain the same?

Even without the question the answer is within you. The world doesn’t need peace; people do and the peace that we want is within us. Peace dances in the heart of every human being, but people are not at peace because people are not being in touch with themselves, not knowing who they are.

As human beings, we have a need–not a need created by society, but a fundamental need to be fulfilled, to be in peace.

But what is peace? Something that is not born of thought, but felt. Something that resides in the ocean of answers, not in the ocean of questions.

Peace is not the absence of noise. Peace is not the absence of war. It is from the hearts of human beings that peace will be achieved.

People ask, "If peace is so simple, how come we don’t have peace in this world?" It’s a very important question.

Everybody has his or her own interpretation of what peace is. We don’t recognize peace as something that is as universal as the Sun. We don’t recognize peace as something as essential as water and air.

Peace is a need that has to be satisfied, not in thought, but in the heart of every human being. Just like it is good to talk about food, but it is better to eat food.

Just like it is good to talk about water, but it is better to drink water; same way it is good to talk about peace, but it is much better to actually feel peace.

If we can make such a mess out of the earth - if we have that much power - then certainly we also have the power to bring peace. The question remains whether we want to do it or not - because peace begins with every one of us. It is individual human being who desires peace. It is individual human being who needs peace.
