You also notice that the log possessed by the other person is larger and more sound than yours and you decide to snatch it in case your plank cracks and gives way. Study your mind behaviour at each of the stages and so many facts related to the meaning of the peace would become apparent. Third, suppose there is a curfew clamped in a city and all the people are in their houses. There is no one on the roads, everywhere there is silence and human activity is at a standstill. Peace is a positive concept.
Peace is an attitude of mind.
It is an approach of human being to ones own life. One must be at peace with oneself first. It is the co-relationship of a human being within and without, i.e. with oneself and with others. It is an attitude of adjustment, of decency, of gentleness, of mutual respect, of understanding the scheme of the universe, of equality,, of brotherhood, of aversion to unjust enrichment, of aversion to violence and selfishness, of exercising one's own rights and protecting one's own interest without violating the rights of others and causing them losses. It is acknowledging the individual's gratitude to society for having offered for the potentially rich life that one can pursue today.
