More quotes by Peace Pilgrim
How good it is to work in the invigorating fresh air under the life-giving sun amid the inspiring beauty of nature. There are many who recognize this... How good it is to earn you livelihood by contributing constructively to the society in which you live - everyone should, of course, and in a healthy society everyone would.
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
Take out the kernel of spiritual truth with any faith, and what is left is dogma.
Peace Pilgrim
When you perceive that problems serve a purpose in your life, you will recognize that problems are opportunities in disguise.
Peace Pilgrim
Just as a human soul that faces great difficulties also faces great opportunities for spiritual growth, so a human society that faces destruction also faces the opportunity to enter a period of renaissance. I think that, barring an accident, the wish to survive will keep us from a nuclear war.
Peace Pilgrim
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.
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
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 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
Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulness possesses you, and in this materialistic age a great many of us are possessed by our possessions.
Peace Pilgrim
When we hear a prediction of some disaster we need to throw the entire weight of our positive thought in the opposite direction!
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.
Peace Pilgrim
People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them.
Peace Pilgrim
Worry is useless mulling over of things we cannot change. Worry is not concern, which would motivate you to do everything possible in a situation.
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
What we usually call human evolution is the awakening of the divine nature within us.
Peace Pilgrim
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.
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
We are all cells in the same body of humanity.
Peace Pilgrim
Unnecessary possessions are unnecessary burdens.
