Peace

  • A state of being characterized by calmness and harmony.
  • A state of being in which conflict, discord, dissonance, disturbance, and drama do not arise.
  • Peace is permanent and conflict is unreal.
  • The resolution of conflict, discord, dissonance, disturbance, and drama restores the awareness of permanent peace.
  • The experience of peace indicates that one is relinquishing false ideas.
  • The experience of peace indicates that one is releasing confusion.
  • The experience of peace indicates that one is releasing unreality.
  • The experience of peace indicates that one is transcending unawakeness.
  • As any apparent wavering from Truth must return to Truth, any descent into apparent conflict must return to peace.
  • In Supreme Peace, the thought of conflict does not arise.
  • In Supreme Peace, it is obvious that anything that seems to be other than peace is unreal.
  • Apex peace transcends becoming.
  • Apex peace transcends belief.
  • Apex peace transcends experience.

Sayings:
