You can find God if you will only seek - by obeying divine laws, by loving people, by relinquishing self-will, attachments, negative thoughts and feelings. And when you find God it will be in stillness. You will find God within.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
To the world I may seem very poor, walking penniless and wearing or carrying in my pockets my only material possessions, but I am really very rich in blessings which no amount of money could buy - health and happiness and inner peace.

The way of peace is the way of love. Love is the greatest power on earth. It conquers all things.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Most human beings only scratch the surface of their real potential. They have no idea what they're capable of.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
The simplified life is a sanctified life, Much more calm, much less strife. Oh, what wondrous truths are unveiled- Projects succeed which had previously failed. Oh, how beautiful life can be, Beautiful simplicity.

The motive, if you are to find inner peace, must be an outgoing motive. Service, of course-service. Giving, not getting. Your motive must be good if your work is to have good effect. The secret of life is being of service.

Many common problems are caused by wrong attitudes. People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them. Naturally you won't be happy that way. You can only be happy when you see things in proper perspective: all human beings are of equal importance in God's sight, and have a job to do in the divine plan.

I pray without ceasing now. My personal prayer is: Make me an instrument which only truth can speak.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
If you give your life as a prayer, you intensify the prayer beyond all measure.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Pure love is a willingness to give without a thought of receiving anything in return.
Peace Pilgrim

People have found inner peace by losing themselves in a cause larger than themselves. Finding inner peace means coming from the self-centered life into the life centered.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Most of us fall short much more by omission than by commission. While the world perishes we go our way: purposeless, passionless, day after day.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Religion is not an end in itself. One's union with God is the ultimate goal. There are so many religions because immature people tend to emphasize trivial differences instead of important likenesses. Differences between faiths lie in creeds and rituals rather than in religious principles.

People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them.

Image
I shall remain a wanderer until mankind has learned the way of peace.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
I've met a few people who had to change their jobs in order to change their lives, but I've met many more people who merely had to change their motive to service in order to change their lives.

If you realize that those who do mean things are psychologically ill, your feelings of anger will turn to feelings of pity.

It is my mission as a pilgrim to act as a messenger expressing spiritual truths. It is a task which I accept joyfully, and I desire nothing in return, neither praise or glory, nor the glitter of silver and gold. I simply rejoice to be able to follow the whisperings of a Higher Will.
