Inner and Outer Peace

Let your imagination bring into this peaceful realm people you care about. Hold them there for a moment, one by one. Now bring in people who tend to irritate you or who you know are not at peace, and imagine them enveloped in this great serenity.

If you do this just for a few moments, you may be sure of having really influenced the world. We are all interconnected, and peace in one heart spreads peace to others. This is as real as any outward action. But it also readies you for outward action.
