Peace

Sri Ramana Maharshi: ~~~ Sri Ramana Reminiscences.

M.:
A man suffering from headache
will not rest quiet
until he has taken the right medicine
and got rid of the ailment.

For health is our nature,
and not illness.

Likewise
peace is our nature.

Indeed we are peace.

But forgetting that,
we seek peace
from external sources.

It is an impossible quest
and causes all this trouble.

The moment
you withdraw your mind
from external objects
and turn inward,
you taste real peace
and feel happy.
