Synopsis

Peace can be elusive. And even for the well educated or the well traveled, one can seek the concept of peace but have difficulty understanding it, much less attaining it. This raises an interesting question: Is there a practical and proven path to both understanding and experiencing peace? Owning and Sowing Seeds of Peace examines various attributes and shades of peace. The text elucidates on some generic sources of turmoil that threaten to disrupt the cultivation of peace. Exploring spirituality, author Francis S. Nicol references three major world religions, and amply examines varied manifestations of turmoil and their contrasting influence on peace. Personal experience, readings, and research in relevant fields provide the basis for analysis, interpretation, and content presentation. Dr Nicol's autobiographical investigation presents useful orientations and conditions for attaining, restoring, and maintaining peace. The recount of his relevant life experiences is rich, riveting, and inspiring.
