CULTIVATE PEACEFULNESS AS A HABIT

Peace come from a relentless practice of equanimity. On the one hand, sorrow, anger, greed, grief an lust create continuous disturbances in the mind. On the other hand, joy, happinesss, excitement and desire also create waves in the mind. When both these extremes rule the mind, there cannot be peace in your life. Facing the ups and downs of life with a practical attitude and acquiring at least a semblance of equanimity makes you a peaceful person. Peacefulness is a habit, which needs to be practiced till it is perfected. There has to be a constant prayer for peace in your heart, whatever activity you are engaged in. Peace is worth acquiring because it is the foundation of your health and well-being. Remember this one liner and meditate upon its contribution to your life in future: “Peace comes not from the absence of conflict in life but from the ability to cope with it creatively”.
