Chapter 230:
The Meaning of Peace
<< Previous | Home | Next >>
1. HATH the day been propitious? . . . behold, many things have
I accomplished that make easier the way unto sweet salvation
for those who walk darkly.
2. Those who walk in darkness have witness of me, even in
that darkness; I say they know my voice;
3. They know that I stand ready to receive them unto myself
but the heart hath its burden, it imprisoneth them in tumult.
4. Should I disown those who would have none of me? How
say I unto the multitudes then, Peace be unto you? Should
I say, Peace unto those who love me but no peace unto those
who dwell in wickedness of heart?
5. I am he who standeth radiantly, that all men should come
up to me. My peace is my peace. Would they partake of it?
It awaiteth to receive them.
6. The day hath its close; the week hath its ending;
behold the Sabbath cometh and I hear ten million prayers
upraised unto me that I should bless men's labors.
7. Is it not the truth that they should bless themselves?
8. What deeds do they, that I should add grace unto them?
9. Verily humankind would have no need for blessing
if men's hearts sought the truth and performed in its
skillfulness.
10. Yet do I know those who pray earnestly and sincerely for
the Truth; I visit them privily; I make them stout of courage.
11. Men make confusions but I command order. Men
perform mischiefs but I perform excellence. Thereat is my
Peace.
12. Yet know ye, my beloved. . . . there is the peace of
resignation and there is the Peace of Love that ever hath its
valiance. The last is of me!
13. I do not command the peace that is verily smothered war;
I command that peace which suffereth with a tolerance,
I command that peace which endureth with a kindness;
14. Yet ever my Peace demandeth Justice regardless!
15. What would I have of Peace that had hatred in the
heart, that quelled the raised blow yet bottled righteous
anger.
16. Would I come unto you saying, Give your hostages to
tumult! . . . let the war have no noise. . . keep to your tents
though the heart be black with sorrow?
17. When I say Peace, I bespeak a great equity. . . see to it
that the evil man quench the wrong unto his neighbor, let the
bastions of Peace be the compact that endureth.
18. Make clean the temples wherein ye do sacrifice to Spirit,
then Peace is that flame whereof the altars have a surfeit.
19. Seek out your brethren and undo the fault, then Peace
cometh unto you as a dove to her cage. . . .
20. Man hath said evilly, The Bright One's peace upon you!
and taken the groat that hath festered the spirit.
21. I say unto all of you, Fester not the spirits of men in any
way whatever, thereat is your recompense. . . that Peace
dwelleth with you as a bride with her beloved.
22. I counsel to that Peace. I say, Go and make it!
23. Mock me not with empty phrasings that Peace hath her
victories no less renowned than War. . . . Peace hath no
victories. . . . Peace is an eschewment. . . . It is a sweet glove
given unto the brother's hand in settlement, it is the altered
fault, it is the generous benevolence, yea it is the altered
understanding that whatsoever ye would that men would do
unto you, do ye likewise unto them.
24. Peace hath its root in patience. It playeth a sweet chord on
the winds of many tumults. Yet ever it is the forest that
conquereth the winds, it is the bright cloud of pleasant morrow,
I say it is the helmet taken from the forehead.
25. Do ye righteously with men and Peace sitteth always as
the lord at your banquet, it maketh you a sonnet, it beguileth
you as Incense.
26. There is no other Peace. . . remember I have said it!
