PATHWAY TO PEACE AND FREEDOM - 03
Another fact is that we do not know how to enjoy peace because we think that a peaceful life is full of boredom. I ask people ‘What do you do when you don’t have any problems at home?’ You sit in front of television. When you are full of problems you don’t feel like sitting in front of the TV and solving other people’s problems. And what do we do when we watch television? We cry with the people on the screen, we feel happy, we feel angry, afraid – when we don’t have anything. So when peace is there we don’t know how to enjoy it. Hard, hard work is necessary to attain to that peace and after attaining, to retain it. Peace comes to us many times in a day but we don’t know how to keep it there so we run after other things.
