Pax ist das lateinische Wort für Frieden. Pax in Verbindung Reichs-, Völker- oder Ortsnamen steht für
Konzepte weltanschaulicher Macht und politischer Einflussnahme im Sinne des Namensgebers
oder von konkreten Friedensverträgen.
So entstanden die Pax Romana, Pax Augusta, Pax Britannica,
Pax Americana, Pax Arabica und Pax Augustana.

Zitate von D. Hawkins

Das letztendliche Gewahrsein und tiefste Verständnis der Gegenwart Gottes ist Friede. Dieser Friede verströmt unendliche Sicherheit und Geborgenheit in nie endendem Schutz. Keinerlei Leiden ist überhaupt noch möglich. Es gibt keine Vergangenheit zu bedauern und keine Zukunft zu fürchten. Da alles bekannt und allgegenwärtig ist, sind alle möglichen Unsicherheiten oder Ängste vor dem Unbekannten für immer aufgelöst. Die Garantie des Überlebens ist absolut. Es gibt keine Wolken am Horizont und ebenso wenig so etwas wie eine Zukunft oder einen nächsten Augenblick, der irgendetwas Unangenehmes oder Unglückliches im Verborgenen bereithalten könnte. Das Leben ist ein immerwährendes „Heute“. OU Das All-sehende Auge, S. 141

Zitate (engl.) von D. Hawkins

Personal avowals
Transcending into the state of peace / enlightenment

It [LoC 600] is more that one is indifferent to [the body]. The state is so complete and perfect that there is no wantingness. To move something you have to have a wantingness. All wantingness disappers. [The physical functions] seem to operate in a delayed way. Many of the basic physiological functions do stop. Breathing will even stop. Video presentation on Hawkins experience of enlightenment, title and date unknown

The person who has found inner peace can no longer be intimidated, controlled, manipulated, or programmed. In this state, one is i'nvulnerable to the threats of the world and therefore has mastered life'. Source unknown

As we sacrifice our personal lives for the sake of the world, we sanctify the life of the world. You can leave your peace signs at home; they’re political slogans that become divisive. By lifting the field, you lift the world. Spiritual work becomes attacked by many people in a very yang way. Source unknown

When this state [LoC 600] is reached, the distinction between subject and object disappears, and there's no specific focal point of perception. Not uncommonly, individuals at this level remove themselves from the world, as the state of bliss that ensues precludes ordinary activity. Some become spiritual teachers; others work anonymously for the betterment of mankind. A few become great geniuses in their respective fields and make major contributions to society. Power vs. Force, S. ?

At the energy field of 600, ordinary thought ceases. Power vs. Force, S. ?

Peace can't be created this way: peace is the natural state of affairs when what's preventing it is removed. Relatively few people are genuinely committed to peace as a realistic goal, for in their private lives, most people prefer being "right" at whatever cost to their relationships or themselves. A self-justified positionality is the real enemy of peace. When solutions are sought on the level of coercion, no peaceful resolutions are possible. Power vs. Force, S. 221

Every advance that we make in our awareness benefits unseen multitudes and strengthens the next step for others to follow. Every act of kindness is noticed by the universe and is preserved forever. The Eye of the I, S. 118

Peace is literally a choice and a decision, although not a popular one in our society despite all the rhetoric about the term. The decision to overlook the seeming inequities of life instead of reacting to them is a choice [for peace]. The Eye of the I, S. 198

It is a relief to let the mind become silent and just 'be' with surroundings. Peace results, and appreciation and calm prevail. In order to realize that a running commentary is not necessary or even authorized, the will gives the mind permission to be silent. When devalued and humbled, the vanity basis of thinkingness collapses, and in its place one discovers the joy of inner silence, which actually constitutes ninety-nice percent of the mind. Only one percent is actually chattering. Transcending Levels of Consciousness, S. 234

The state of the Infinite Love dissolves all languaging nouns, adjectives, and verbs, for the Supreme is beyond names or divisions. The Peace of the Silence is the Subjectivity. Discovery of the Presence of God. Devotional Nonduality, S. 52

A subtle inner pleasure accompanies true spiritual endeavor. An inner quality of peace and fulfillment accompanies the subtle inner knowingness that one is finally 'homeward bound' in the transition from the world of the self to the expanded awareness of the Self. There is also relief from inner spiritual guilt that accompanies spiritual negligence and willful indulgence of the ego’s demands and desires for gain. Reality, Spirituality and Modern Man, chapter 10 Experiential versus Conceptual, S. 194

What people in the world actually want is the recognition of who they really are on the highest level, to see that the same Self radiates forth within everyone, heals their feeling of separation, and brings about a feeling of peace. Along the Path to Enlightenment. 365 Reflections from David R. Hawkins, S. ?, Reflection of 2nd September

When you totally accept that you are dumb and ugly you have peace. So I'm dumb and ugly! Sedona Satsang Q&A, CD 1 of 2, transcribed by Jon Kalman, Estland, 10. January 2007

Percentage of war times'

Gloria Steinem, Gregg Braden, Richard Wilkinson, Ph.D., Marija Gimbutas, estimate:
'''There were 90% non-war periods, 10% war periods in human history.

There has been war 97% of the time [of recorded human history]. Let‘s just accept that war is a natural condition. If people wanted peace, they would have peace. Sedona Satsang Q&A, 2 CD set, 10. January 2007

Gedichte – Frieden

* * *

Der erste Frieden ist der Wichtigste.
Er ist es, der in die Seelen der Menschen einzieht, wenn sie ihre Verwandtschaft, ihr Einssein,
mit dem Universum begreifen und verinnerlichen, dass das große Geheimnis im Mittelpunkt der Welt wohnt
und diese Mitte tatsächlich überall ist. Sie ist in jedem von uns.
Dies ist der wirkliche Friede, alle anderen sind lediglich Widerspiegelungen davon.

Der zweite Friede wird zwischen Einzelnen geschlossen.

Und der dritte Friede ist der zwischen den Völkern.

Doch vor allem möget ihr verstehen, dass es niemals Frieden geben kann, solange nicht
der erste Friede vorhanden ist, welcher, wie ich schon so oft sagte, im Innern der Menschenseele wohnt.

Black Elk ['Hehaka Sapa', deutsch 'Schwarzer Elch'] [BW 499] (1863-1950), Drei Arten von Frieden,
Black Elk war ein Wichasha Wakan, ein Medizinmann und Ältester der Oglala-Lakota-Indianer.
Im Jahre 1876 nahm er mit erst zwölf Jahren an der Schlacht am Little Bighorn River teil.
Das Massaker am Wounded Knee 1890 überlebte er schwer verletzt. Er war ein Cousin
von Crazy Horse und kannte Sitting Bull und Red Cloud.
Obwohl er kein Englisch sprach, hat er viel von der Welt des Weißen Mannes gesehen.
Mit der "Buffalo Bill Wild West Show" ist er nach Italien, Frankreich und England gereist,
wo er unter Anderem für Königin Victoria tanzte. Black Elk verfügte über
große spirituelle Kraft und inspirierte sein Volk und viele andere weltweit.

Poems – Peace

The True Peace

The first peace, which is the most important,
is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship,
their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize
at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit,
and that its center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.
This is the real peace, and the others are but reflections of this.

The second peace is that which is made between two individuals,

and the third peace is that which is made between two nations.

But above all you should understand that there can never be peace between nations
until there is first known that true peace which is within the souls of men.

Black Elk ['Wičháša Wakȟáŋ; Hehaka Sapa'] [LoC 499] (1863-1950) North American medicine elder
and heyoka of the Oglala Lakota tribe (Sioux) of the Oglala Lakota (Sioux),

Peace Poem – Tao Te Ching

If there is to be peace in the world,
there must be peace in the nations.

If there is to be peace in the nations,
there must be peace in the cities.

If there is to be peace in the cities,
there must be peace between neighbors.

If there is to be peace between neighbors,
there must be peace in the home.

If there is to be peace in the home,
there must be peace in the heart.
