The 4th R Foundation: We Need Peace in the World and we Need Peace in our Minds/Brains; We Need to Understand the True Nature of Peace - We Desperately Need Wisdom/Emotional-Intelligence Education

NEW YORK, NY, March 14, 2012 (Press-News.org) Only when man understands the true nature of peace will there be movement toward peace. Peace can only be understood when we understand the true nature of wisdom as peace is an attribute of wisdom. As wisdom is selflessness; peace is selflessness.

Peace is a fragrance of the pure self. Peace is an innate property of the pure self. Only when both adversaries have a real transformation not just in attitude toward each other and also toward their own outlook on life will there be real peace. It is not for nothing that Jesus said that if someone hits you on one cheek offer him the other. Which means totally not only forgive the opponent but also let him blow off steam and catch him off guard. Instead of bringing hate to the opponent give him love. Peace is a love exchange. Because say peace is gold and you bring iron to the table then exchanging gold is not possible. Peace is an integral part and parcel of wisdom which contains all the attributes of wisdom. Peace is possible only by exchanging pure love. Peace is possible only the Jesus way.

In order to achieve peace mankind will have to be made wise, mankind will have to be made selfless. It is the emotionally challenged brain that generates selfishness, which is generated by the emotional baggage in the brain. By removing the emotional baggage in the brain we remove the generation of selfishness from the brain. Thus it is necessary to remove selfishness from the brain. The nature of selfishness is such that it is not so simple to remove it from the brain; it is not like garbage that can be swept out. The whole physical brain structure is set that generates selfishness.

The way we approach peace today is, we try to persuade, coax, preach adversaries to love and respect each other. It is like we pour perfume into the brain that is manufacturing stink at the same time. So the fragrance goes in and gets overwhelmed by the stink and peace remains elusive. It is about time that the world woke up to the true nature of peace.

Peace is about changing the emotional intelligence of the brain. Peace is about making the brain wise, Peace is about brain therapy. Brain therapy is self image therapy. Actually 80% of the brains of humans are emotionally challenged and so life for these is a huge emotional struggle from a severe struggle to an adjusted struggle. Look around and one can see that most need peace even with themselves. Even the rich and famous need shots of whiskey and drugs to relax. Our happiness and relaxation is chemically induced. It need not be like this.

A Parable for Peace.

Once upon a time there were two people living on the same land. Their Patriarch was the same. They both coveted the same real estate as their holy ground. So they fought for hundreds of years. The time came when the whole world got affected by their dispute and they both got tired of fighting. So they started peace talks which lasted for decades. Governments came and went and the peace talks went on and on and yet they remained far apart.

In both the groups there lived a wise man, each very popular in his own group. Their actions had brought great prosperity for their own people and even affected the other side. The elders having tried all kinds of leaders finally went to their respective wise man and asked him to do something. They both agreed to negotiate peace on the condition that their agreement be honored and implemented. They both had opening statements before going in to the peace room.

One of the wise man said to the other, "Your people have done so much harm to my people that you people deserve to be hated! Yet I could never do that because hate is a gang leader. It would never come into my mind alone. Hate would bring with it jealousy, fear, anger, guilt, confusion, tiredness and ill health etc. Harming me more than it would ever harm you. As when the whole ugly gang settles in it leaves less room for math and science. Also it would result in shifting my focus from our own progress to how to destroy you thus diverting valuable resources etc. etc. So for my own sake I have always loved you!

The other wise man replied, "Your people have been the scum of the earth for my people yet I have always loved you! For love is a gang leader too. It does not come into the mind alone. It brings happiness, confidence, pleasure, relaxation, health, calmness etc. into the mind; thus making the mind more powerful for math and science. This has brought health, happiness and even prosperity for me and my family. So I have always loved you for my own sake."

After these statements they went into the room alone. After two hours they both emerged from the room. They had a peace treaty which was a few pages long. Every one cheered. They were asked how they could work out a peace agreement in two hours where it was not possible for hundreds of years. One of the wise men read a statement that both had jointly written. "We know this question will be asked... Well we went into the room with the right tools for producing peace. Suppose war is iron and peace is gold and your aim is to both exchange gold; then you both have to go into the room with gold. If we both go into the room with iron then there is no way, not in 1000 years that we can give each other gold. If we went into the room with iron then all we can come out with is iron. There is no trick in the world that can change iron into gold at the peace table. We both went into the room with the right peace ingredients. Even if we tried to produce more war, we couldn't do it because we did not have the tools to produce war.

Even though we both love each other too much for our own selfish reasons love can only produce results it is capable of. Love can only produce peace!" With the peace treaty every thing was up and up from GDP to Gross National Happiness for both countries. Would you be interested in knowing the exact peace treaty that the two wise men had negotiated?
