Chapter I -
Introduction
Peace is a divine attribute. It is a quality of the soul. It
cannot remain with greedy persons. It fills the pure heart. It
desserts the lustful. It runs away from selfish people. It is
an ornament of a Paramahamsa.
Peace is a state of quiet. It is freedom from disturbance,
anxiety, agitation, riot of violence. It is harmony, silence,
calm, repose, rest. Specifically, it is the absence or
cessation of war.
Peace is the happy, natural state of man. It is his
birthright. War is his disgrace.
Everybody wants peace and is clamoring for peace; but peace
does not come easily. Even if it comes, it does not last for a
long time.
