More quotes by Peace Pilgrim
People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them.
Peace Pilgrim
A life without problems would be a barren existence, without the opportunity for spiritual growth.
Peace Pilgrim
I have faith that God will care for me, and God does provide my needs. I don't in any way feel insecure because I don't know where I will sleep at night, where or when I will eat next. When you have spiritual security, you have no more feeling of need for material security.
Peace Pilgrim
As I lived up to the highest light I had, higher and higher light came to me.
Peace Pilgrim
My appointed work is to awaken the divine nature that is within.
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.
Peace Pilgrim

Peace Pilgrim

Peace Pilgrim
If you realize that those who do mean things are psychologically ill, your feelings of anger will turn to feelings of pity.
Peace Pilgrim
When you have found inner peace, you are in constant contact with the source of universal energy and cannot be tired. . . You have endless energy.
Peace Pilgrim
I believe that the means you use will determine the end you receive.
Peace Pilgrim
I walk until given shelter, fast until given food. I don't ask - it's given without asking. Aren't people good! There's a spark of good in everybody, no mater how deeply it may be buried. It's waiting to govern your life gloriously.
Peace Pilgrim
There is no glimpse of the light without walking the path. You can't get it from anyone else, nor can you give it to anyone. Just take whatever steps seem easiest for you, and as you take a few steps it will be easier for you to take a few more.
Peace Pilgrim
Life is a series of tests but if you pass your tests, you look back upon them as good experiences.
Peace Pilgrim
You're in a much better position to talk with people when they approach you than when you approach them.
Peace Pilgrim
Humanity has only scratched the surface of its real potential.
Peace Pilgrim
The world is like a mirror if you smile at it, it smiles at you. I love to smile, and so in general, I definitely receive smiles in return.
