Peace Begins From You
Like the title says, and more importantly James Allen says in the book, “Peace Begins From You.” It is then manifested in your life. The next step where selflessness and peace prevail. And when you are peaceful, then success in other areas of life become much easier. To work with a peaceful and a powerful mind is an edge and the advantage.
In the beginning of the book, James Allen gives us the “Five Great Meditations” that Gautama, the Buddha, gave his disciples.
1. The first meditation is the meditation of Love, where you will even long for the welfare of your enemies.
2. The second meditation is the meditation of pity, where you will invoke compassion toward all beings in suffering.
3. The third meditation is the meditation of joy, where you will think about others’ prosperity and joy and rejoice in it.
4. The fourth meditation is the meditation of impurity, where you will meditate about those little things about the "self" and how the need to immediate pleasure stop us from the truth.
5. The fifth meditation is the meditation of serenity, where you bring yourself above love & hate, tyranny and oppression, above everything toward truth.

Some Insights From the Book:
1. Once come to regard your failings, your sorrows and sufferings as so many voices telling you plainly where you are weak and faulty, where you fall below the true and the divine, you will then begin to ceaselessly watch yourself, and every slip, every pang of pain will show you where you are to set to work, and what you have to remove out of your heart in order to bring it nearer to the likeness of the Divine, nearer to the Perfect Love.
2. What the saints, sages, and saviors have accomplished, you likewise may accomplish if you will only tread the way which they trod and pointed out, the way of self-sacrifice, of self-denying service.
3. Truth is the one Reality in the universe, the inward Harmony, the perfect Justice, the eternal Love. Nothing can be added to it, nor taken from it.
4.Change and mortality will no more cause you anxiety and sorrow, for you will become established in the unchangeable, and will dwell in the very heart of immortality.
5. Truth in itself is not hidden and dark. It is always revealed and is perfectly transparent. But the blind and wayward self cannot perceive it. The light of day is not hidden except to the blind, and the Light of Truth is not hidden except to those who are blinded by self.
