How can you attain the Supreme peace? You use another thorn to take out a thorn from your foot. Diamond can be cut only by diamond. Similarly, peace can attained only by peace. There are so many people in this world who have all comforts and conveniences, yet they lack peace and have some fear or the other every moment. What is the reason? Can external comforts and conveniences give peace to man? Can he attain peace by wealth, gold and other worldly possessions? If wealth and worldly possessions could give peace, then how is it that even rich men are in the grip of unrest? In spite of all comforts and conveniences, man today is unable to experience peace because he is filled with fear and anxiety when a snake enters one’s house. Such being the case, how can man attain peace when the venomous snakes of Raga and Dvesha have entered his heart? It is impossible to attain permanent peace so long man does not give up Raga and Dvesha. Many people have power, authority and wealth. In spite of all this, they are unable to enjoy peace. They are subjected to unrest because they lack the will power and capacity to control their evil qualities. Therefore, first of all, man should see to it that evil qualities and evil thoughts do not enter his heart. There is a permanent spring of peace in the inner recesses of his heart. Water is flowing everywhere under the surface of earth. What should do to bring the water out? You have to remove the soil that covers the water by digging the earth. The soil of Raga and Dvesha has covered the peace within you. You can attain it only when you remove this ‘soil’. (SS Dec ‘12 p.407)
