The Silent Language of Peace

Each one of us has a sacred space inside of us, it is the place of rest. We visit this place every time we go into deep sleep.

I have always seen that one’s pain always comes from the ones you love the most. Why it is so? Simply because it is not the other person who causes you pain. It is your deep attachment which is the cause of the pain. If the person to whom you are not attached to causes you pain, you can overcome …
