Peace

 All conflict arises out of opinion vs opinion and the insecurity this creates, leading to intolerance. “I don’t like who you are”. Or, “I don’t like what you stand for”. And you gravitate towards those who

You find some commonality with. It could be similarity of thoughts, of religion, of physical appearance, language… and the like.

While the thinking people may say” so what if we are different, accept me and I will accept you as we are both human beings”, the herd mentality when taught intolerance can lead to dangerous and destructive action, as we have seen constantly. When your mind is taken over by another more powerful energy, you begin to take on borrowed thoughts. Your power of discernment is clogged or has never been developed.

This is when we need to gather good energy to project into the world. In order for there to be peace.

Depth of gratitude

The depth of gratitude is not felt by many the need for gratitude, even less sometimes. Also much is taken for granted. Like a female Spouse, who just is expected to do certain things at home? It is very rare that she is thanked.

Similarly, if you start writing down all that you and I have to be thankful for, you will be surprised how many items come up on the list. From the life we have to everything that we enjoy but never appreciate.

A daily prayer and an attitude of gratitude go a very long way in keeping us cleansed and happy.

Attachment

Attachment and peace are not compatible. Because attachment is bondage . And souls are freedom seeking.

It stands to reason that as long as I consider anything as "mine", I will always think of something as "yours" , too. And the conflict of mine and yours takes away peace.

What IS mine ? Actually, nothing . Yes, I am holding onto the illusion that all I have is mine. The children are mine. The family is mine. The friends are mine. Etc. And then start the expectations as well.

We are actually caretakers. Nothing and no one belongs to us. The sooner we know this, the better life will be and the more we can deal with life with wisdom and a fair amount of detachment.

If we don't detach with understanding, we will have to suffer and ultimately, be compelled to detach. So, Looked at from different angles , there IS no peace with attachment.
