What do we see all around us today? If we take a look at our media every day, what do we see? If we go through in between the pages of our newspapers from the first to last on any day, it can be seen only full of negative information. All Media are competing with each other to spread this negativity. Some people who want peace in their lives are avoiding these media which from the morning when open our eyes spread negative feelings. Everyone is very much concerned about everything they see in front of them and shares complaints and worries. 

A lot of discussions are done in channels about each and every issue here and motivational speeches by spiritual scholars are carried on in their own way on the other side. But there is no fruitful changes have been seen yet. It is like making noise by saying shut up. Actually, most of the common people are seen as addicted to these negative atmospheres and think that this is normal. Poverty, injustice, disparities, harassment, corruption, religious or political agitations, and all kinds of devaluations found in our society seem to be normal to them. Everyone thinks that life is a mixture of joys and sorrows. So when even if they are in joy, they are expecting what the sorrow to come to them next. That is even the happy moments are not been enjoying by them. Is there any release from this world of sorrows?

There is no one to find a solution for it. Why people are searching for peace? Because in their mind there is a comfort zone filled with peace which had been enjoyed by them earlier. We have to find out that peace. There is only one solution to all the devaluations seen in today's society, just change all the existing ways of thinking and think about myself first. If we continue to think and say the same way until yesterday, won’t the experiences be the same as yesterday? 

Self-transformation is the only solution for all these. Transformation of the world through self-transformation. Here we need some spiritual awareness. How much less cost! Be it political parties or social workers, they are only roaming around in their own line of thought. But our intellectuals get upset when they hear about spiritual science. They want everything scientific. They don’t know that spiritual science is the study of the soul which includes the mind, intellect and culture from where these scientific thoughts come.

Let us watch ourselves as a witness from morning to evening. How many harmless lies each one of us are thinking, saying and doing?

Don't we see such a father who is staying at home and telling his children to say lie to those who tell him that he is not here? He is lying to himself and training his children to lie. We all know that God is the truth. If each of us starts living with values and being truthful to ourselves, won't this place be Heaven? Purity and Truth have the Divine Power to vibrate peace and calm everywhere. With those vibrations from us, the five elements of nature will also be calm. The birds and animals are also will become calm. The atmosphere will become pure. Have you ever seen stray dogs running around and biting for no reason? Emotional pollution which plays a major role in making our earth hell, has become a serious problem which no one notices as it is invisible. We know that God is Sathyam, Shivam and Sundaram. By whatever names God is called, it is Truth. If we too follow the truth in our lives, will we not be Godlike? Why we are wandering in search of peace and happiness, by spending a lot of time and energy? If we all decide to leave the negative feelings like Kama, krodham, etc. from our life and lead a life based on Dharma, then we need not to go on a pilgrimage all over the world in search of God.

Without thinking and acting like this, a man wanders all over the world seeking inner peace. It is only just enough to look back at ourselves. But no one has taught us like this way of self-transformation.

None of us belong to anyone in this world. We have a parent just to get a human birth in the world. It is to be remembered that we all come to this world of theatre alone just to act a role as per the result of our karma. It is also to be remembered the naked truth that we have to go back from this theatre after the drama is over. If we understand that every moment is the final moment, then all the selfishness and grudges among the human being will automatically vanish. Is our life like that?

As a computer system has two parts software and hardware, the human being has also two parts. Our body and all things related to it are the hardware whereas software includes the mind and intellect which are commonly known as the soul or consciousness. Unfortunately, all of us are merely body-conscious now and are trying to solve the problems related to our bodies only. When we realise we are souls, all the problems will disappear. The spiritual awareness to empower our mind and body is the only solution for all the issues and thus to maintain peace. All other knowledges are incomplete like the blind gets when he sees the elephant.

Promoting universal peace begins with personal transformation. Embrace empathy, practice kindness and cultivate a mindset of understanding. Strive for self-awareness and continue learning to contribute positively to the world around us. We must learn to look within ourselves instead of searching outside for peace and happiness and actually, it is the time to recognize the need for Self-Transformation for Universal Transformation.
