Meditation for Peace
World Peace Begins with Inner Peace
Happiness is what all human beings seek. A philosopher can consider history
up to the present and define happiness according to many concepts and theories. But this philosopher cannot answer the question: Who has achieved or discovered
true happiness for human beings?
I believe that if we look at each individual person, we will see that we are
all made of the same components: our physical body and our mind. We can favor
our body by giving it beverages, food, and the finest things. But if our mind
is in turmoil, or even if it is amused or pleased by some form of entertainment,
can this be called true happiness? If our body is in pain, constrained by
illness, do we want to call this true happiness? But when we learn how and act
to attain equilibrium between the body and the mind, people can find happiness
within themselves.
And they can tell themselves that this is true happiness. The entirety of
humanity can discover true happiness and the purpose of our existence. We can
conduct our lives in the correct and beautiful manner until all peoples reach
lasting inner peace. This is the foundation for peace, the objective to which Phrarajbhavanavisudh has dedicated himself to building.
