Peace — of mind, body, heart and soul
What is peace? Is it just being calm or quiet? And is that calmness on the exterior or on the inside?
Is there anything as too much peace? Never ever.
Nobody ever felt no need for peace. To be able to just breathe peacefully, to be able to sit and voice out problems and opinions calmly, to be the raw version of yourself - all needs peace.
As Sadhguru believes, peace cannot be enforced from outside. It is a consequence of how we are within ourselves. And truly said; for, peace is the most fundamental requirement. It is the core of existence.
Peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of these things and still be calm in the heart. Even then, can we normalise sitting quiet, but having a turmoil of emotions raging inside us? And at the same time, can we homogenise being at peace internally and yet be finger fidgety on the outside?
Finding peace amidst chaos is saintly. But am no saint. And if I am not mistaken, not many people are. So as long as we remain humans, we need to create that ambience for peace to prevail around us. And as long as we find success in doing that, we shall continue to be at serenity with our existence.
