Celestial Lands The Religious Crossroads of Politics, Power, and Theology

A Man of Peace — by Osho

“A man of peace is not a pacifist, a man of peace is simply a pool of silence.

He pulsates a new kind of energy into the world, he sings a new song.

He lives in a totally new way; his very way of live is that of grace, that of prayer, that of compassion.

Whomsoever he touches, he creates more love-energy.

The man of peace is creative. He is not against war because to be against anything is to be at war. He is not against war, he simply understands why war exists.

And out of that understanding he becomes peaceful.

Only when there are many people who are pools of peace, silence, understanding, will the war disappear.”

 

From “Zen, the Path of Paradox”
