Abiding Peace

Seek refuge in Him alone with your whole being, O Bharata; by His grace you shall attain supreme peace and the eternal abode.

The Karma Yogi, having renounced the fruits of action, attains eternal peace or liberation through wisdom, whereas one who is driven by desire and attached to the fruits of action becomes bound. (Gita: Chapter V-12)

He who remains equal-minded whether honored by the good or tormented by the wicked—he is held to be liberated while living (jivanmukta).

Man cannot find eternal peace of mind so long as he remains attached to the worldly materials, which by themselves are not permanent, stable and independent. Once a man gives place in his heart to the ever-living Almighty, he himself rises above decay, and whosoever comes in his contact, he too finds peace.

The muttering of prayers, austere penance, performing sacrifices, subjugation of the mind and the senses, undertaking sacred vows, charity, dispassion, right judgment, Yoga (union with God) and Realization - the fruit of all these is devotion to the feet of the Lord of the Raghus; without this no one can attain lasting peace.

Those learned men who take the unchanging and inconceivable Brahma as their sole support, and who are blessed by Brahma, enjoy perfect peace both in this life and the next.

However, the soul that does not attain the level of purity that matches its capacity will never achieve true peace and satisfaction, because it lacks the detachment and emptiness in its faculties necessary for simple union.

On one side, we have the Reality, which is an absolute self-existent, eternal, and sole self-being. Through the experience of the silent and inactive Self, or the detached immobile Purusha, we can move towards this featureless and relationless Absolute. We can negate the actions of the creative power, whether it be illusory Maya or formative Prakriti, and pass from the cycle of cosmic error into eternal peace and silence. We can get rid of our personal existence and find or lose ourselves in that sole true existence.

The home is the place where one can find lasting peace, and it is where reality resides. Staying at home helps one attain the realization of the true self. So, stay where you are, and everything will come to you in time.

If you want to attain everlasting peace, do not think of objects, but always think of the immortal and blissful Atman alone.

A person who has abandoned the results of their actions achieves eternal peace, while one who is driven by desire and attached to outcomes becomes bound.

The person who has transcended their mind and rests in their true self-experiences lasting peace and eternal bliss.

Only then will it find peace in OM, its original abode of eternal peace.

Tolerance brings lasting peace.

True peace of mind does not come from external sources. It is generated within the mind itself when it is controlled and its thoughts are regulated.

The goal of human life, according to the Upanishads, is to realize Brahman. Self-realization is the only way to overcome ignorance and attain immortality, eternal bliss, and lasting peace.

Withdraw from external distractions, meditate, and rest in your soul to experience lasting peace.
