ON CHOOSING PEACE AND PEACE ALONE

I suspect we will never have a mind at peace until we make peace with our attack mind.

The way to make peace with an attack mind is to let it attack. Choose not to follow it there. Do not attach our self to it by resisting with admonitions, dread, fear, hate, etc.

If we let it attack at will, in essence giving it permission, it will have nothing to rage against. It is our resistance that nurtures it and keeps it attacking.

We find out, of course, that we cannot let it attack at will and remain unruffled within. We learn, all over again, feeling like for the first time, that we must and we must immediately turn our thoughts to God...peace, love and joy, roses and rainbows, morning dew and evening starshine. Let it be.

It is amazing and typically human that that requires so much effort...holding our own thoughts to images of nothing but good. Hard, hard, Lord, ain't it hard!..especially when it is so easy to wallow in the pig poop of our attack mind.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, oh, let it be. Speaking words of wisdom, let it be, oh, let it be. 

Thank you.
