Spiritual Transformation

Spiritual Transformation


Today, I see that to change my life I have to change myself. When I say that I would like world peace, first I will understand that without inner peace there will be no world peace. One of the ways in which I can serve the cause of humanity is to be, within myself, a genuinely spiritual person—respecting all sects and creeds, but standing on my own as a conduit of higher truth, recognizing that each person has access to that knowledge. I will look for truth today within myself rather than outside. I will not wait for peace to be handed to me as some sort of prize for good behavior but will do the inner work needed to achieve it. Today I give and receive the gift of peace.
 I seek truth within myself.
 As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world — that is the myth of the ‘atomic age’ — as in being able to remake ourselves.
