Few find inner peace but this is not because they try and fail, it is because they do not try. . . When your life is governed by the divine nature instead of the self-centered nature you have found inner peace.

More quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Take out the kernel of spiritual truth with any faith, and what is left is dogma.
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
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
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
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
When we attempt to isolate another we only isolate ourselves. We are all God's children and there are no favorites. God is revealed to all who seek God speaks to all who will listen. Be still and know God.
Peace Pilgrim
Looking through the eyes of the divine nature you see the essence within the manifestation, the creator within the creation, and it is a wonderful, wonderful world!
Peace Pilgrim
If you are not radiant with joy and friendliness, if you are not filled to overflowing with love and goodwill for all beings and all creatures and all creation, one thing is certain: you do not know God!
Peace Pilgrim
Evil cannot be overcome by more evil. Evil can only be overcome by good. It is the lesson of the way of love.
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
We have all the light we need, we just need to put it in practice.
Peace Pilgrim
When societies are out of harmony, problems develop within the society - collective problems. Their purpose is to push the whole society toward harmony.
Peace Pilgrim
People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them.
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
World peace will never be stable until enough of us find inner peace to stabilize it
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
Humanity has only scratched the surface of its real potential.
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
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.
Peace Pilgrim
