THE LIFE AND MESSAGE OF SWAMI AMAR JYOTI

Human evolution and upliftment of consciousness do not come about through cultural or technological advance, but more by the blessing of spiritual unfoldment. In this sacred process, the Master-disciple relationship is paramount, so much so that it is known as the highest of all relationships on earth.

STEPS TO INNER PEACE

by Swami Amar Jyoti

Peace is self-existent. Therefore, to make your peace dependent upon anything is missing the peace. When you say, “I want peace but I want this too,” you are canceling peace. That is what I mean by a sincere approach to peace. Do you want peace, period? Being great will not give you peace; it will give you more headaches. When you are peaceful you have no headaches. More wealth will not give you peace. More property, friends or relations will not give you peace, but when you are peaceful other relationships are fulfilled. So, when you wish to have peace, do not compromise it for anything else. When you desire peace sincerely, at any cost, you will have it. It does not take time.

Yet even if you believe I can show you the way to peace, you have to receive it, and to receive it you have to be ready. You have to be genuine, humble and non-resistant. You have to forgive. But if you forgive only to make others think you are great, you are not forgiving. Because the time others think you are not great you will lose your humility. You will lose your selflessness as soon as your interests are affected. When someone touches your deep-rooted motives or desires, will you still work selflessly? Therefore, your desire for peace has to be genuine.
