• Peace love happiness and wholeness - the things we most desire
•
... and they are available to all of us ...
• ... because they exist inside
each of us - right here, right now!
• Inside you, too. Allow me to point you
in the right direction.
The Truth about a Cliché
A cliché: When a winner of beauty contest for women
is asked what she wants, she will say "World peace!".
Not so strange,
because peace is in fact one of the things we desire most.
Now, when the
winner of a beauty contest is asked what she wants, she is not supposed to
appear egocentric, but rather altruistic; she's supposed to want something good
for everybody and not just herself.
But the fact is, that world peace
starts with just one person: You. (Or, as the case may be, that girl who won the
beauty contest).
World peace starts with inner peace. As long as there is
powerful conflict inside us, there is a very real risk of conflict outside of
us.
Well, the funny thing is that it's pretty much the same with love and
happiness. There's no reason to go searching for these things in the outside
world, because that's not where they are.
The Truth about Inner Peace, Love and Happiness
World peace
starts with inner peace - inside YOU.
Your experience of love
starts and ends with the love that YOU feel.
Happiness is an
internal condition inside YOU.
It's really all about
experiencing yourself as being whole - as the unified whole that you
are.
Okay, then, how do you get inner peace, love and
happiness?
Peace, Love, Happiness: The Good News
The
great news here is, that since the big three that you desire are
internal conditions inside you, they are in fact 100 percent under
your control. Yes, that's right: In your life you are in control of
the conditions of peace, love and happiness.
Peace,
Love, Happiness: How to Get the Inner Peace
To get inner peace,
you must stop judging yourself and everybody else. Start by
eliminating the words 'good', 'bad'/'evil', 'right' and 'wrong' from
your vocabulary. You don't need them, anyway.
Then, at your
convenience you might try the following ...
Just for a few
moments: Stop thinking altogether. Breathe instead: In and out. In
and out. Notice that you exist. That's all. You are at peace. (Yeah,
I realize that most people will find this very challenging, and so I
would refer them to my text about
letting go
and about thoughts
[LINK] and perhaps also about
being yourself).
Peace,
Love, Happiness: How to Get the Love
If you want more love in
your life the thing to do is love yourself and others more! Contrary
to common belief having other people love you doesn't really give
you much experience of love.
Oh, it'll give you some
experience, because the people (and animals) who love you will treat
you nicely, which is pleasant. And if you're very sensitive, you
might even pick up on the subtle energies of love that they send in
your direction, which is also nice.
But you don't get any
REAL experience of love until you start loving! Both yourself and
other people. And the fewer conditions you place on that love the
more powerfully you will experience it.
If you want, you can
read more about all this on the page
Love. There's also some good
info on the page about
Relationships.
Peace, Love,
Happiness: How to Get the Happiness
Happiness is actually another
one of your natural inner conditions (inner peace and love being two
of the others) and even if you can't feel it, the happiness is
always there. Just like the sun. And just like in the case of the
sun, all you need do is remove the clouds or get beyond them. In
your case, the 'clouds' are fear.
So, in effect, it's pretty
much a question of identifying the 'clouds' in your life (most of
which take the form of thoughts [LINK] and beliefs [LINK]. The goal
is not to fight, but to accept and let go of anything and everything
inside you that is fear-based.
Basically, what you need to do
is stop believing in fear and lower your defence mechanisms. You can
read more about all this on the page
Happiness.

Conclusion
What most people really want is not something lofty or
hard to get. It's very real, and everyone can get it. You can get
it, too.
If and when you do, you will start affecting other
people around you with peace, love, happiness, wholeness, etc. and
when enough people have been so affected, the beauty queens might
just get their stated wish fulfilled.
And the great thing is
that in the meantime YOU will have a great life experience!
