SHACK 291 WHAT IS PEACE

Christie Inge

Peace is when the mind is not occupied by thought.

Many may find this ludicrous.

When the mind is at rest it is happy and content. Merely resting on intellectual content and self praise, wealth and a prominent position in society can easily come to end and is temporary and a mere interlude especially when the ego is bored.

‘Peace goes beyond human understanding’ and this sort of understanding is beyond thought.

When the desperation and effort to be someone of distinction a notable person of fame and prestige wears off and exhaustion sets in with trying to be one of the herd, the tribe and the pack which society demands and one retires to ones own forte this can result in being outcast, ostracized and becomes a threat to the pack, one is different and upsets the apple cart and the status quo.  There is a tug to be praised by the pack and herd and when this overcome there is peace and one becomes oneself.
