How daring are we to speak of peace! The whole world is full of tensions and worries and nothing remains at rest. Our country, state, neighborhood, homes, educational institutions and places of worship, there is nothing but dissension. The scenario is really frightening now and so are the results of the problems and pressure.

The rich man wishes to make more money, the film star worries about his next film, students worry about their result of the examination and so can we list the unhealthy qualities involved in these cases - greed, ego, anxiety, lust for power and popularity.

There is a deep capacity of peace within us just waiting to be tapped and to follow into the lives of others. If we can do our daily duty to the best of our ability, if we can forget the unpleasant past except for the lessons we have learnt, if we can leave the future to look after itself, we can do what good we can each day and look into ourselves for a little while and this stream of peace will emerge, making life an experience of joy and wonder.
