“Ultimate peace begins within; when we find peace within there will be no more conflict, no more occasion for war. If this is the peace you seek, purify your body by sensible living habits, purify your mind by expelling all negative thoughts, purify your motives by casting out any ideas of greed or self-striving and by seeking to serve you fellow human beings, purify your desires by eliminating all wishes for material possessions or self-glorification and by desiring to know and do God's will for you. Inspire others to do likewise.” IfsKnowsMindHumansIdeasWarSelfBodyDesireWishHuman BeingsInspireMaterialsHabitConflictNegativeUltimateFellowsStriveGreedSeekingPossessionYour BodyGods WillOccasionsMotiveSensibleCastingFinding PeaceNegative ThoughtsEliminatingInspire OthersMaterial PossessionsPeace WithinGlorificationSelf Glorification Author:Peace Pilgrim
“I despair of persuading people to drop the familiar and comforting tactic of dichotomy. Perhaps, instead, we might expand the framework of debates by seeking other dichotomies more appropriate than, or simply different from, the conventional divisions. All dichotomies are simplifications, but the rendition of a conflict along differing axes of several orthogonal dichotomies might provide an amplitude of proper intellectual space without forcing us to forgo our most comforting tool of thought.” PeopleDifferentMightSpaceConflictDespairIntellectualToolsSeekingDebateFamiliarAppropriateDivisionConventionalComfortingTacticsFrameworkAxesSimplificationDichotomyPersuading Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“Nervousness is caused by wanting two opposing things at the same time, one consciously and the other subconsciously. The battle is resolved when you make the subconscious desire conscious. On the other hand, if you know what you are, there will be no conflicts. You can do that through seeking. It is not necessary to understand the negative. It is far better to be positive. Be Your Self.” IfsKnowsTwoSelfHandsDesireCan DoBattleConflictConsciousNegativeSeekingSubconsciousOpposingBeing PositiveNervousness Author:Lester Levenson

“The war you feel within - that restlessness, the unending uncertainty - is not to be dismissed, avoided, hated.
