We all know of course, that we should never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever fiddle around in any way with electrical equipment. never.
Way Should Equipment
We can work on inner peace and world peace at the same time. on one hand, people have found inner peace by losing themselves in a cause larger than themselves, like the cause of world peace, because finding inner peace means coming from the self-centered life into the life centered in the good of the whole. on the other hand, one of the ways of working for world peace is to work for more inner peace, because world peace will never be stable until enough of us find inner peace to stabilize it.
Peace Mean Self
Peace ca n exist only in the present moment. it is rid iculous to say "wait until i fi nish this, then i will be free to live in peace." what is "this" ? a di­ploma, a job, a house, the payment of a debt? if yo u th ink that way, peace wi ll never come. there is always another "th is" that wi ll fo llow the present one. if you are not living in peace at this moment, you will never be able to . if you truly wa nt to be at peace, you must be at peace right now. otherwise, there is only "the hope of peace some day.

It just was a gradual development over the years. i mean last year was 'all you need is love.' this year, it's 'all you need is love and peace, baby.' give peace a chance, and remember love. the only hope for us is peace. violence begets violence. you can have peace as soon as you like if we all pull together. you're all geniuses, and you're all beautiful. you don't need anyone to tell you who you are. you are what you are. get out there and get peace, think peace, and live peace and breathe peace, and you'll get it as soon as you like.

Perhaps peace is not, after all, something you work for, or 'fight for.' it is indeed 'fighting for peace' that starts all the wars. what, after all, are the pretexts of all these cold war crises, but 'fighting for peace?' peace is something you have or do not have. if you are yourself at peace, then there is at least some peace in the world. then share your peace with everyone, and everyone will be at peace.

I have said, and i repeat, at the risk of appearing sacrilegious, that the gas chambers are a detail of the history of the second world war... if you take a book of a thousand pages on the second world war, in which 50 million people died, the concentration camps occupy two pages and the gas chambers ten or 15 lines, and that's what's called a detail.

There is little difference between the zulu warrior who smeared bis body with lion's fat and the modern woman who dabs hers with expensive perfume. the one was trying to acquire the courage of the king of beasts, the other is attempting to acquire the irresistible sexuality of flowers. the underlying principle is the same.
