Be on the lookout for symptoms of inner peace. The hearts of a
great many have already been exposed to inner peace and it is
possible that people everywhere could come down with it in epidemic
proportions. This could pose a serious threat to what has, up to
now, been a fairly stable condition of conflict in the world.
Some signs to look for:
* A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears
based on past experiences.
* An unmistakeable ability to enjoy each moment.
* A loss of interest in judging other people.
* A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others.
* A loss of interest in conflict.
* A loss of the ability to worry. (This is a very serious
symptom.)
* Frequent, overwhelming episodes of appreciation.
* Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature.
* Frequent attacks of smiling. * An increasing tendency to let
things happen rather than make them happen.
* An increased susceptibility to the love offered by others
as
well as the uncontrollable urge to extend
it.
