THE PIECE(PEACE) OF MIND
PEACE
What is peace? If I put the question to a Hindu, he will
quote the famous Shlokam, “Om Shanthi shanthi shanthi hi”. This statement
means, let there be peace. Peace must be there even when times change. If there
is no devotion, let there be devotion. If there is death, there shall be birth.
If there is darkness let there be light. Everything will go in its due course.
Whatever happens, let there be peace.
The answer by a Christian would be,”It is one of the
Biblical virtues”. Every Sunday mass will be characterized by the conveyance of
peace to each other. There is a hymn in
Christian faith, “make me a channel of your peace”. Channel of peace literally
means a instrument of peace.
The very name Islam means peace. Peace is a great virtue in
Islam. People who are cross with each other must make peace at least on the day
of Ramzan by wishing Id Mubarak.
Peace is a divine virtue. If it is not so, why religions
have to speak about peace? Being so greatly influenced by this virtue, Buddha
spoke of peace. King Ashoka was influenced by Buddha and asked his daughter and
son to propagate peace and Buddhism and peace after Kalinga war.
To have peace around the world, one has to start nurturing
it at home. Many people become psychologically infected by the bickers of their
parents. The injection of feud in the minds of the kids has a very primary
influence on kids that start to pick up fight for small reasons with their
co-learners.
Every parent has the obligation to teach their children to
forget and forgive menial evils done by others. Many little children have not
developed the habit of giving up things. Some parents give their children everything
they want. This leads to their hunger for their desires. This leads to
conflicts among themselves in their futures or precisely their nearest futures
for contracts, assets, prestige and so on.
This policy of giving up, forgiving and forgetting results
in generation of peace throughout the world. Every parent must take it as their obligation to nip things like vengeance and envy at a tender age to cultivate future at the successive stages.
