Peace

The below is part of a speech given during one of Sri Nannagaru’s trips to Arunachala:

“Peace is essential to human beings. I give the utmost importance to undiluted peace, unbroken peace. Peace is above money and power and beyond everything related to the world. If there is no peace, neither the wealthy or healthy are in a good condition. Peace is above money, peace is above power, peace is above everything.

Peace is essential, peace is a must, to everyone, to each religion, to every part of the world - to the whole of humanity. Without peace we cannot progress in any branch of life. To maintain economic wealth and prosperity or for the purpose of living comfortably and happily, it is essential to have peace. The gain of the whole world is not equal to peace. The body requires comfort, the mind requires peace. If there is no peace on the individual level, then there will be unrest, disturbance, and chaos throughout the world.

If you want peace you have to come out from ignorance, if you want peace you have to come out from wrong identification, if you want peace you have to come out from wrong thinking, if you want peace you have to come out from wrong habits, if you want peace you have to come out from wrong behaviour - peace is essential. We cannot buy peace in the market, we have to grow peace in the heart. We have to grow it in the mind.”
