Peace is an Illusion

Peace is being in a state of harmony which is personified by the lack of violence or fear of violence. Yet, throughout history, strange to say, violence has often been used to create peace.

For those of us who are allowed to think, it makes one wonder how many more lives need to be sacrificed in the name of peace? It makes one wonder if peace is just an illusion ... a fantasy of the mind ... a place that may not ever exist or is static.

Even holy books talk about wars in heaven. If there is no peace in "heaven" then how can there ever be peace on earth? If there has never been peace throughout the earth ... throughout history ... then how can there be peace in "heaven"?

There is also that programming which tells us it is sinful to feel at peace when another is suffering. So, those with a conscientious conscious will have no peace. No peace within - no peace without.

After all, as they say, we are all connected to this universal "mind/soul" energy.

I have ended many of my videos with the words hugs and peace, however I have come to a conclusion that I can only hug away a hurt, giving temporary peace, but peace is fleeting. Generally, peace will go as fast as it has come.

I have also begun to think that this elusive peace is also a deception; it's an illusion to make people fight ... to make people violent ... over their programmed ideologies.

I wonder what would happen if we removed all those ideologies that cause violence. But of course, that is also an illusion, because what if you or I are those ideologies and we must be removed? Martyrdom for peace is also an illusion, because, if we understand history, nothing has ever been permanently resolved by that either. Right?

So, one must ask, what's all the fighting for? Obviously it's not for peace, because with all the fighting, hate and violence, since time immemorial, we should have it by now. Yet, what can you have that is an illusion much less an elusive illusion?

Peace is not only an illusion but it's also become an instrument for violence and fear ... a tool to control those that cannot think or are not allowed to think.
