It is a mistake of the ego to think that it can "create peace" in the external world.

Once one purifies within, peace can be attained. Once inner peace is attained, peacefulness radiates to the outer world through you. It is perhaps a mistake of the ego to think that it can "create peace" in the external world or that it can "force" peace unto others.

"Peace" cannot be created nor brought into the world in relative terms, because it is a natural state and a natural state cannot be created.

Once enough people purify within which brings back inner peace, external relative worldly peace can and will be attained. So ultimately, work on creating peace within yourself before you try to create peace for others.

Have a nice weekend :)

A thank you bump for truth. Though each person has to want to calm their chaos. Peace through rules is not peace because it is not true transformation of the person, it is a lazy leaders way because transformation takes a while to accomplish. And sadly this world has had lazy leaders.

And for real peace my thought is that everyone has to grow past ego.

A la political or activist peace between two people or two groups will always relatively fail. It will always be a "patch" that may seem to work on a relative basis, but will not create true "peace" which happens naturally when inner peace is attained. I think I have known this for a while, but perhaps this is the first time I have put into words to contemplate.

And someone just added this on another thread:

"This is true for all real things (but not for illusions of the ego). The ego says seeing is believing. Spirit says believing is seeing. In other words, when you truly believe / know / feel something to the core of your being, then it will be true on every level of your experience, inside and out.
The external world is simply a mirror. Trying to change what you see by changing the mirror is pointless. You can paint a happy face there, but it doesn't change your actual being. As soon as you move, the face looking back at you is still your own.
The mirror of the external world is somewhat useful, as it can give us insight into our current state of being. But to truly bring about change, we must go within."

Watch Kung Fu, the original series. This is how an inner peace is achieved.
