More quotes by Peace Pilgrim
My appointed work is to awaken the divine nature that is within.
Peace Pilgrim
Fountain of Love my source is in thee - Loving thy will my spirit is free - Beautiful day when all of us see - The hope of the world is Love!
Peace Pilgrim
You must give if you want to receive. Let the center of your being be one of giving, giving, giving. You can't give too much, and you will discover you cannot give without receiving.
Peace Pilgrim
Then there is the way that was taught two thousand years ago - of overcoming evil with good, which is my way, the way Jesus taught. Never loose faith: God's way is bound to prevail in the end.
Peace Pilgrim
I shall not accept more than I need while others in the world have less than they need.
Peace Pilgrim
Make food a very incidental part of your life by filling your life so full of meaningful things that you'll hardly have time to think about food.
Peace Pilgrim
You are within God. God is within you.
Peace Pilgrim
World peace will never be stable until enough of us find inner peace to stabilize it
Peace Pilgrim
It is not through judgment that the good in people can be reached, but through love and faith.
Peace Pilgrim
The pain and suffering that comes to us has a purpose in our lives-it is trying to teach us something. We should look for its lesson.
Peace Pilgrim
I began my pilgrimage on the first of January in 1953. It is my spiritual birthday of sorts. It was a period in which I was merged with the whole. No longer was I a seed buried under the ground, but I felt as a flower reaching out effortlessly toward the sun.
Peace Pilgrim
Unnecessary possessions are unnecessary burdens.
Peace Pilgrim
People allow themselves to be slaves of their bad habits and society's bad habits - but they have free will, and if they wish to be free they can.
Peace Pilgrim
It isn't enough just to do right things and say right things, you must also think right things before your life can come into harmony.
Peace Pilgrim
I define democracy as control by the people. Slaves are those who allow others to control their lives. Insofar as people succeed in solving their problems fairly and efficiently at a grassroots level, they retain control over their lives. Insofar as they delegate their problem solving to a higher authority, they lose control over their lives.
Peace Pilgrim
Constantly through thought you are creating your inner conditions and helping to create the conditions around you. So keep your thoughts on the positive side, think about the best that could happen, think about the good things you want to happen.
Peace Pilgrim
Humanity can only improve as people improve. When you have improved your life, you can inspire those around you to want to improve their lives. Remember that a few in harmony with God's will are more powerful than multitudes out of harmony.
Peace Pilgrim
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
The way of peace is the way of love. Love is the greatest power on earth. It conquers all things.
Peace Pilgrim
I wish that every child could have growing space because I think children are a little like plants. If they grow too close together, they become thin and sickly and never obtain maximum growth. We need room to grow.
