The First Peace
    #14269933 - 04/10/11 11:08 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of men when they realize their relationship, their oneness, with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells Wakan-Tanka, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us. This is the real peace, and the others are but reflections of this. The second peace is that which is made between two individuals, and the third is that which is made between two nations. But above all you should understand that there can never be peace between nations until there is first known that true peace, which, as I have often said, is within the souls of men.

"Wanting to reform the world without discovering one's true self is like trying to cover the world with leather to avoid the pain of walking on stones and thorns.
It is much simpler to wear shoes." - Ramana

Discovering the Self is the same as this first peace, which is the only peace there is as it's the only peace that lasts
If something does not last then it can not truly be peace as it would be a disturbance to appear then disappear
By recognizing what is not peaceful one can realize that oneself is peace, as all things that can be pointed to are not peaceful, then naturally the one pointing gets left aside also...

:peace:

:sun:  :cool:

It's like trying to block the sun when all you need to do is put on a pair of shades.
