PEACE

Peace was the very first thing that the yogis and seekers of old asked for and it was a quiet and silent mind - and that always brings peace -that they declared to be the best condition for realising the Divine.
SRI AUROBINDO

Peace is a deep quietude where no disturbance can come- a quietude with a sense of established security and release.
SRI AUROBINDO

Peace is a calm deepened into something that is very positive amounting almost to a tranquil waveless Ananda.
