Short Poems on Peace

My heart dreams of peace, while my mind dreams of supremacy.

~

Peace is the child of compassion, and not the son of compromise.

~

Peace does not command my mind. It just illumines my mind.

~

When my mind breathes in peace even for a fleeting minute, my heart starts dancing with the flying wings of the wind.

~

Accumulation is not and can never be peace.

~

Man-critics and God-critics will never have an iota of peace.

~

Peace is a stranger to the rigid mind. Peace is a guest of the flexible heart.

(1) Excerpts from Peace by Sri Chinmoy

~

Try to be a peace-distributor.
If you cannot be a peace-distributor,
Then try to be a peace-lover.
If you cannot be a peace-lover,
Then try to be a peace-dreamer.
If you cannot be a peace-dreamer,
Then at least try to be a peace-thinker.
