Remember that no one can hurt you except yourself. If someone does a mean thing to you, that person is hurt. You are not really hurt unless you become embittered, or unless you become angry and perhaps do a mean thing in return.

More quotes by Peace Pilgrim
The fear habit is very detrimental because you attract the things you fear. If we have any fear we need to get rid of it.
Peace Pilgrim
Take out the kernel of spiritual truth with any faith, and what is left is dogma.
Peace Pilgrim
Unnecessary possessions are unnecessary burdens. If you have them, you have to take care of them! There is great freedom in simplicity of living. It is those who have enough but not too much who are the happiest.
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
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
Are you a slave to your self-centered nature or does your divine nature guide your life? Do you kow that every moment of your life you're creating through thought? You create your own inner condition you're helping create the conditions around you.
Peace Pilgrim
It's very important to get your desires centered so you will desire only to do God's will for you. You can come to the point of oneness of desire, just to know and do your part in the Life Pattern. When you think about it, is there anything else as really important to desire?
Peace Pilgrim
The valid research for the future is on the inner side, on the spiritual side.
Peace Pilgrim
Do not suppress it - that would hurt you inside. Do not express it - this would not only hurt you inside, it would cause ripples in your surroundings. What you do is transform it.
Peace Pilgrim
When you have done the spiritual growing up you realize that every human being is of equal importance, has work to do in this world, and has equal potential. We are in many varied stages of growth this is true because we have free will. You have free will as to whether you will finish the mental and emotional growing up. Many choose not to.
Peace Pilgrim
....If you are guided toward a faith, use it as a stepping stone to God, not as a barrier between yourself and God's other children or as a tower to hold you aloft from others. If you are not guided toward a faith (or even if you are) seek God in the silence - seek within.
Peace Pilgrim
Many people who say they have financial problems really mean that they want more than they need.
Peace Pilgrim
You might say that science operates pragmatically and religion by divine guidance. If valid, they would reach the same conclusions but science would take a lot longer.
Peace Pilgrim
Let us help the phoenix to rise from the ashes let us help lay the foundation for a new renaissance let us help to accelerate the spiritual awakening until it lifts us into the golden age which would come.
Peace Pilgrim
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.
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
Be willing to face life squarely and get down beneath the surface of life where the verities and realities are to be found.
Peace Pilgrim
You're in a much better position to talk with people when they approach you than when you approach them.
Peace Pilgrim
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
Although others may feel sorry for you, never feel sorry for yourself: it has a deadly effect on spiritual well-being. Recognize all problems, no matter how difficult, as opportunities for spiritual growth, and make the most of these opportunities.
