Discussions about peace, agreements for peace, movements for peace... Why, although the desire for peace in the world is fervent, are wars being fought every day? And why, although many people desire peace in their lives, does it seem unattainable even on a personal level?

In this series of talks, Ossos explains that peace can only be achieved when rigid religious practices and political ideologies are rejected and replaced with awakened consciousness. The key to peace is transformation - both within and without - for each individual separately, and in this book Ossos shows how it can be achieved through meditation.

"The attainment of truth, the touch of the shadow of truth, is known as the attainment of peace. Whoever discovers this truth finally conquers peace within themselves, attains tranquility. Find the truth and, like its shadow, tranquility will follow. The shadow of truth is peace within us."
