How can you find inner peace & calmness?
Through stillness.
“It is inner stillness that will save and transform the world” —Eckhart Tolle
"Be the change you wish to see in the world."—Mahatma Gandhi
For real. Be it.
The outer will reflect it once you make the shift within.
“You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
—Marcus Aurelius
“We ourselves are responsible for what happens to us, whether or not we can understand how. It follows that we can change what happens to us by changing ourselves; we can take our destiny into our own hands.”
—Bhagavad Gita
“Make the best use of what is in your power, and take the rest as it happens.”
—Epictetus
“If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place. Primary reality is within; secondary reality without.”
—Eckhart Tolle
One way to know if you’re in a high vibration/zero point field?
Contentment. You’re good either way. Whether something you want happens or it doesn’t happen. You are fine with the way things are. You accept the present moment just as it is without really needing anything external or any person from the outside to make you happy. Your inner state is relaxed/at peace. The emotion is the key.
“Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.”
—Joseph Campbell
“I cannot always control what goes on outside. But I can always control what goes on inside.”
—Wayne Dyer
“If you want to be a voice for peace in the world, begin by making peace a permanent condition of your own life.”
—Wayne Dyer
“You do indeed have a past, but not now! And, yes, you have a future, but not now! You can consume your now with thoughts of 'then' and 'maybe,' but that will keep you from the inner peace you could experience.”
—Wayne Dyer
“It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt
“Beg of God the removal of envy, that God may deliver you from externals, and bestow upon you an inward occupation, which will absorb you so that your attention is not drawn away.”
—Rumi
“The outward work will never be puny if the inward work is great.”
—Meister Eckhart
“As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed.”
—Vincent Van Gogh
“Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.”
—Henry David Thoreau
