Guest guest Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Genuine Shanti Genuine Shanti (peace) is won by the control of the senses. By calming the mental agitations that surge like waves, leveling the swirls and whirls of likes and dislikes, love and hate, sorrow and joy, hope and despair, Shanti is earned and maintained. To get Shanti, Prema (love) is the only means. The fuel of Prema yields the Divine flame of Shanti. Prema brings about unity of all mankind, and this unity combined with spiritual knowledge will bring about peace. Philosophy that cannot be understood, scriptures that are not practised, the present world is full of these. It is a waste of time to talk of them. Real change must be made in the daily conduct and behaviour of man, for these are within the experience of all. They can be easily practised and their purpose grasped. In every little activity and word, one should discriminate and adopt the best. That is the sign of the genuine Sadhaka (spiritual aspirant).
