Do you agree that peace must come from within?

100% True... I agree with you....

ABSOLUTLY! I could not agree with you more. We humans have yet to learn our world and our existance is finite and that the future is not gauranteed. The problem lies in something I wrote recently about "GREED","RELIGION" and "ENVY". These to me are the stepping stones to destruction of our human race and our planet. How we deal with them will dictate what will happen to us and the world we live in. At the moment things do not look to promising I'm sorry to say. What do you think?

yes, i agree with what you said very.

Hi Pose, Good day! I agree with you. Sometimes we focus too much on wanting to do something big for the world and for the whole humanity that we forget to look within ourselves if we have peace inside. I also believe that before we can attain peace it should first start within us. Only if we have peace deep within us we can share it with other people starting with the people close to us like our family, friends, etc. Peace should not be superficial. It should be something that lies deep within.

I think you are right to feel peace we must feel peace in our heart. I personally feel peace when I am pray to my dear God, share my good and bad moment with Him, after that I will feel peace and I feel every thing will alright because I have God who walk beside me.

I certainly agree peace comes from within however one has to be careful not to let outside situations and events disrupt your "PEACE". In these violent and strange times it is too easy to be distracted and caught up in all of negatives instead of focusing on positive things. Can we humans find "PEACE" on our planet. I really don't know. One look at history and you can get an idea. For example the "HISTORY CHANNEL" on tv has an outstanding series on the various civilizations that have occupied this blue rock in space. In every one there has been "War" and "Strife". We are talking about more than seven thousand,(7000), years. You would think mankind would have learned a lesson by now. But alas, that does not seem to be the case. WILL WE EVER LEARN? Do you believe we as humans can get our collective acts togather?

there is so much violence and unrest in our world. we have to pray and try to think good thoughts to achieve some peace. we should try to look and find the good things and to be more appreciative of all we do have. i have to work on this all the time, since i am a sad, negative person with health issues.

I won't be original and write, that I totally agree with you. The problem is, how to find peace in your mind. People, who don't have peace within do everything to make others as much unbalanced as they are.(mostly unconsciously) So the first task is to find this peace and the other one is to make it permanent. I must say, that other is much harder for me. It is constant process. I am more and more "there" but sometimes I lose this feeling. However, it happens rarer with time.

actually the real peace is comes from ourselves and not from the others as they have their own mind since we cant control them, real peace is acceptance and understanding. if we try to accept every thing and understand why it happened even though sometimes its hard to accept and to believe but its being part of our life and its not us alone who experience those things. We become so trouble coz we keep of thinking and digging about the past specially those that make us feel so bad and hurt, i know its not easy to let go but we cant bring back the hands of time anymore and no matter how we try we cant change what happened before, a lot of people are like that, they are full of hatred about the people coz of what happened in the past. though we cant avoid to remember those past but lets just count on them as lesson to learn and just part of our life. if we learned to accept it and face it in different way to day and tomorrow then im sure we will have peace.

I do agree that peace has to come from within. You need to have peace on your heart and soul before the feeling that can be shared by others with you. Peace is a state of mind that you need a firm grip on before you journey anwhere in life.

Hi, Yes we often search outside in vain for peace. We confuse pleasure with happiness. But peace indeed springs from within. One who is at peace with oneself is in harmony with the rest of the world as well. We are getting attached to the material world and loosing our liberty. If we can stay independent and free, we will certainly enjoy everything in this world. We don't know how to appreciate what we already have. We want to acquire more and more earthly pleasure. Our wants often exceeds our necessity and this is where obligations and attachments come to play trick on us. We feel like those birds who, because of staying in cage for years, have forgotten all about flying. With such a burden on our chest we can just hop and run, but can't fly. Inner liberty brings us happiness that is quite independent of what is going on outside. Our happiness and inner peace gradually becomes quite invincible. Thanks God bless you

I think so. I think it has something to do with the individual first before he or she can have the peace someone wants to have. If you feel peaceful then it projects. Its contagious too cause people are gonna think that you are so calm and that you have peace from within that is powerful enough to influence others.

Love your sweet words Pose. I would have to agree with you. There is nothing far from the truth, as you said it: "peace must come from within" As tea pours out of the teapot, peace should pour out of a peaceful mind and body too. We can't change the world alone. But in our very own small way and in our own small actions we can become role models to our families, friends, colleagues, the neighborhood, the community we live in. When we change positively people would eventually change toward us. When our world changes the world outside would eventually change. It is not a smooth journey and one that would not take an overnight either. But it's worth every effort. If nothing is done, nothing would have been accomplished five years down the road. Do something and something would be achieved.

Yes, peace starts from ourselves. A person who loves peace loves himself and other around him. Everybody seeks what is peace. But the answer is only with us. Its on our hands to brings peace in our world.
