The simplicity of the soul is magnificent and majestic, but it can only be experienced when there is peace in the heart.
Inner peace is the basis of our lives, everything can exist however if there is no inner peace everything will be illusory and transient.

Beauty, like life, is impermanent but it will be complete, when manifested, if, and only if, there is peace in the heart.
A peaceful heart reflects a wise person, as well as the wealth that only those wise and simple possess.

The conquest of calm originates from self knowledge, from accepting oneself and loving oneself. So, the perfection of the moment can be manifested entirely.

Inner calm is strong and powerful. It is through it that a wise soul finds expression.
With inner peace the being is able to listen and to listen to himself also. Only then self knowledge will be possible.
