12c. 1969 ADHas your soul a special mission? Yes. Your mission is in the inmost recesses of your heart, and you have to find and fulfil it there. There can be no external way for you to fulfil your mission. The deer grows musk in his own body. He smells it and becomes enchanted, and tries to locate its source. He runs and runs, but he cannot find the source. In his endless search, he loses all his energy and finally he dies. But the source he was so desperately searching for was within himself. How could he find it elsewhere?Such is the case with you. Your special mission- which is the fulfilment of your divinity- is not outside you, but within you. Search within. Meditate within. You will discover your mission.Sri Chinmoy / quote ↗
13c. 1969 ADMan invents war. Man discovers peace. He invents war from without. He discovers peace from within. War man throws. Peace man sows. The smile of war is the flood of human blood. The smile of peace is the love, below, above.Sri Chinmoy / quote ↗

17c. 1969 ADUnless and until we have peace deep within us, we can never hope to have peace in the outer world. You and I create the world by the vibrations that we offer to it. If we can invoke peace and then offer it to somebody else, we will see how peace expands from one to two persons, and gradually to the world at large. Peace will come about in the world from the perfection of individuals. If you have peace, I have peace, he has peace, and she has peace, then automatically universal peace will dawn.Sri Chinmoy / quote ↗
18c. 1969 ADWorld-peace can be achieved when the power of love replaces the love of power.Sri Chinmoy / quote ↗
19c. 1969 ADIt is only through meditation that we can get lasting peace, divine peace. If we meditate soulfully in the morning and receive peace for only one minute, that one minute of peace will permeate our whole day. And when we have a meditation of the highest order, then we really get abiding peace, light and delight. We need meditation because we want to grow in light and fulfill ourselves in light. If this is our aspiration, if this is our thirst, then meditation is the only way.Sri Chinmoy / quote ↗
20c. 1969 ADHave little,Need less:This is the wayTo inner peace.Surrender is a journeyFrom the outer turmoilTo the inner peace.PeaceIs in inner awakening,And this inner awakeningWe must shareWith the rest of the world.Sri Chinmoy / quote ↗
