Dear Dominic,<br />
<br />
Peace and blessings from Pakistan!!!<br />
My definition of peace says: Peace is an inner contentment of “self” that expends itself from regulating a person from individual liberty to common and collective public good<br />
<br />
May God continue to bless you and your family with all worldly and spiritual enrichments!!!<br />
<br />
With peace and unconditional love, I am,<br />

<br />
<b>The moment has come</b><br />
by the Master--, through Benjamin Creme, 8 February 2009 (Share International)<br />
<br />
Eventually, men will realize that they are travelling together on a journey of Self-discovery, one which will bring them in time to the feet of the Most Holy.<br />
The essence of this journey of discovery is that it is self-enacted and willed, and at the same time is shared by all members, known and unknown, of the human family.<br />
True it is that all men are brothers, sons of the One Father,<br />
each engaged, consciously or otherwise, in this momentous adventure we call life.<br />
To many today, unfortunately, this adventure is a painful and degrading experience;<br />
to millions, it is unjust and barren, the sooner over the better.<br />
<br />
Small wonder is it, therefore, that so many see life as drudgery and grind, their child-engendered dreams of achievement and happiness but distant memories.<br />
<br />
Men are born to create and grow in Self-awareness, and need the environment in which that<br />
becomes possible. The terrible disease of commercialization has robbed countless millions of<br />
their birthright and, as its insidious growth encroaches on all aspects of men's lives, its tentacles<br />
of disaster squeeze every generous and human feeling from their hearts.<br />
Humanity is in thrall to commercialization and in peril of its soul.<br />
<br />
<b>Reverse</b><br />
<br />
What can men do to reverse this process of disaster?<br />
Already, the current economic and financial chaos, symptoms of the destructive forces of commercialization, are showing men that they can no longer allow this monster to rule their lives; that they must take stock and assess anew their priorities for a more just and healthy economic structure which will the better serve their needs.<br />
There are, of course, many, relatively untouched by the current crisis, who see this time as a 'downturn'<br />
and look forward in full confidence to the inevitable upturn', when we can carry on as before.<br />
<br />
This is no longer possible; the blind can no longer lead the blind.<br />
<br />
They know not of Maitreya.<br />
<br />
<b>Moment</b><br />
<br />
Maitreya has chosen this moment to fulfil His promise to enter the domain of men and to help them on their journey.<br />
He is emerging now;<br />
His herald, the star-sign of His emergence, is seen worldwide by many and is the signal of His appearance, openly, before men.<br />
Using the television resources of today,<br />
He will engage on a series of interviews starting in America and including Japan and many other<br />
countries.<br />
<br />
As an ordinary man, undeclared as Maitreya,<br />
He will speak for all those who have no voice, no spokesman.<br />
He will call on men to share the goods of the Earth and to embrace each other as the brothers and sisters they are.<br />
He will show that if we would have peace there is only one way to achieve it:<br />
that is by the realization of justice throughout the world,<br />
and that justice can only be achieved through sharing.We await the response of all men and women of goodwill in this, our world. •<br />

My definition of peace I guess would be: the comprimising of people and acceptance of the fact that peoples lives and experiences are all different and that ideas and believes differ due to their upbringing, the events in their live, their geographical location, their religious teachings and ideoligies; and then the allowing acceptance of one another within oneself by dismissing fear and misunderstanding of people's diversities, and finding a common ground, a common denominator or sameness that…

I like the reference to non violence. Being in harmony with all that is. The Hopi people's name means People of Peace. They describe the peaceful way of life as being simple, humble and spiritual, in harmony with the plan of Creation. It is the basis of our original instructions received by Spirit within our heart since birth.

Yes Nicole, this is an excellent definition indeed. I would simply add that to make this happen, we need to implement large scale awareness through education playing a key role, which is exactly what cultivatingpeace.ca is doing, so it should also state this more clearly in its beautiful and comprehensive definition.<br />

In personal terms, "Leave me alone! Can't I get any peace and quiet?" In political terms, what Israel used to call "unilateral separation."<br/><br/>My idea of peace? It's more clear in Hebrew. The word <i>shalom</i> is related to <i>shalem</i>, wholeness. Its opposite is <i>machloket</i> (conflict), which is related to <i>chelek</i>, division. Peace vs. conflict = wholeness vs. division<br/><br/>In the Talmud (<i>gemara Nedarim, Yerushalmi</i>), Ben Azzai puts this in terms that explicitly link the wholeness within a person with the wholeness of our relationships with others. He comments on the biblical verse (Leviticus 19) "Do not take revenge or bear a grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself; I am <i>HaShem</i> [G!d]", saying:<br/><br/>"How can a person take revenge or bear a grudge against another person? It is like someone who is cutting meat that he is holding in his hand: If the knife accidentally slips and he cuts his hand, would he revenge that hand by cutting the other one?"<br/><br/>In other words, when you see the person facing you as an image of G!d, you see a reflection of your own deepest self in them - "Love your neighbor [who is] as yourself." How, then, could you want to harm them?<br/><br/>To me, peace between Israel and Palestine (or, for that matter, peace within Israel or Palestine) is when we see each other in that light, and act toward each other accordingly.<br/><br/>Everything short of that - all the signed agreements, suppression of violence, etc. (may it come today!) - is mere tolerance of that bothersome Other who we (Jews or Arabs) wish would just leave us alone.<br/><br/>Blessings,<br/>-Hayyim</div>
