JANU: Assembled then this evening is a group of those who represent pacifists. Now, let us understand something here. The pacifists we speak of are not fighters in the human social sense, but are committed peacemakers more powerful than any violence. Their legacy is the cumulative effect of the power of True Peace, for in True Peace the mind is clear, the creative forces are in harmony, the genius of life itself becomes known.
Those who do battle in the conventional sense of human perception will always have another battle to wage, setting back the opportunities for the true power of peace. Look at the carnage of the world at war. The resources gone. The lives wasted. Yet the wars continue, conflicts more brutal.
Those who raise families are arbiters of peace, supporting survival, education, relationships, well-being, the reaching for and fulfillment of destinies. These are the builders, the creators, the pacifists who sacrifice that others find fulfillment. They long for peace and find joy in the achievements of those they serve.
So, when looking for examples of peacemakers, of pacifists, in the larger reality, look for those, and within the self these qualities. Yes, even there are leaders in societies with these qualities, but their challenge is great. But there are those who inspire, encourage strength and commitment in these. Being a peacemaker is laudable. Namaste.
