Peace
-A Spiritual Leader "Bani of Guru Gobind Singh"
Supporting one’s parents, cherishing spouse and children and a peaceful occupation; this is the greatest blessing.
-Scriptures "Sutta Nipata 262"
For him who has completed the journey, for him who is sorrowless, for him who from everything is wholly free, for him who has destroyed all ties, the fever of passion exists not… He is like a pool, unsullied by mud; to such a balanced one, life’s wanderings do not arise. Calm is his mind, calm is his speech, calm is his action, who, rightly knowing, is wholly freed, perfectly peaceful and equipoised.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada"
You can blow the world to pieces, but you can't blow the world to peace.
-Dennis Kucinich
If an evil man comes and creates a disturbance, you should hold your peace. You must not angrily upbraid his; then he who has come to curse you will merely harm himself.
-Scriptures "Sutra of Forty-two Section 7"
Happy are those who work for peace: God will call them his children!
-Jesus Christ
That which gives pleasure to one man gives pain to another. That sage who identifies himself with the imperishable Self and stands as a spectator of the mental modifications enjoys supreme peace and infinite bliss.
-Swami Sivananda "Swami Sivananda"
As rivers flow into the ocean but cannot make the vast ocean overflow, so flow the streams of the sense - world into the sea of peace that is the sage.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Bhagwad Gita 2.70"
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
-Gautama Buddha
He who is in perfect peace suspects no man. But he who is discontented and disturbed is agitated by various suspicions; he neither has rest himself, nor does he permit others to rest.
-Jesus Christ
