inner peace

If inner peace lead to you pleasure. You sampled peace, didn’t attain it. Peace is superior to pleasure. In its full stillness nothing else enters.

When peace visits you the first time..

When peace visits you the first time, you shoo it away like a disturbance, to frantically look for happiness. And after a thousand times happiness left you abruptly you start wondering what was that thing you drove away. When peace visits the second time, you receive it reluctantly, like a child asked to eat her vegetables. You yearn for the same old happiness that you felt so many times yet which never seemed enough. And after happiness leaves you another thousand times you start to think of peace, you realize peace can feel empty but it can be with you eternally. And when peace visits you the third time, you sit with it quietly. This time gratefully for its presence, you embrace peace like a warm blanket in a cold room. You prepare to be at, and end all things peacefully. And if happiness finds you again you instantly seek peace within it, as peace is always present in all things. And when happiness leaves again, you are not bothered for peace still sits within you. May peace be upon you. All praise to the unknown.

Definition of Power

Excluding Jesus and including the early catholic church, today’s civilization, religions and including corporate america. Why is Power largely and continued to be defined as dominion to destroy or take by force or perceived granted authority to kill at will ?

I don’t want nor like this power.

I think when we as a civilization overcome this misconception, we will truly live on this planet and may be even understand Jesus for that matter.

I also think when one overcomes this personally, he or she makes a human stride of wisdom and inner peace.
