As rivers flow into the ocean but cannot make the vast ocean overflow, so flow the streams of the sense - world into the sea of peace that is the sage.
Supporting one’s parents, cherishing spouse and children and a peaceful occupation; this is the greatest blessing.
If we are peaceful, if we are happy, we can smile and blossom like a flower, and everyone in our family, our entire society, will benefit from our peace.
This is peace, this is excellent, namely the calm of all impulses, the casting out of all “basis”, the extinction of craving, dispassion, stopping-nirvana.
Peace be upon him who follows the straight Path!
There’s harmony and inner peace to be found in following a moral compass that points in the same direction, regardless of fashion or trend.
