Peace Pilgrim

Pure love is a willingness to give without a thought of receiving anything in return.

— Peace Pilgrim

Unnecessary possessions are unnecessary burdens. If you have them, you have to take care of them! There is great freedom in simplicity of living. It is those who have enough but not too much who are the happiest.

— Peace Pilgrim

I shall remain a wanderer until mankind has learned the way of peace; walking until given shelter and fasting until given food.

— Peace Pilgrim

I deal with spiritual truth which should never be sold and need never be bought. When you are ready it will be given.

— Peace Pilgrim

Stop being an escapist! Stop being a surface liver who stays right in the froth of the surface. There are millions of these people, and they never find anything really worthwhile. Be willing to face life squarely and get down beneath the surface of life where the verities and realities are to be found.

A PILGRIM IS A WANDERER WITH A PURPOSE. A pilgrimage can be to a place — that's the best known kind — but it can also be for a thing. Mine is for peace, and that is why I am a Peace Pilgrim.

— Peace Pilgrim

When you approach others in judgement they will be on the defensive. When you are able to approach them in a kindly, loving manner without judgement they will tend to judge themselves and be transformed.

— Peace Pilgrim

This is the way of peace — overcome evil with good, and falsehood with truth, and hatred with love.

— Peace Pilgrim

Please don't say lightly that these are just religious concepts and not practical. These are laws governing human conduct, which apply as rigidly as the law of gravity. When we disregard these laws in any walk of life, chaos results. Through obedience to these laws this world of ours will enter a period of peace and richness of life beyond our fondest dreams. The key word for our time is practice. We have all the light we need, we just need to put it into practice.

— Peace Pilgrim

I am constantly thankful. The world is so beautiful, I am thankful. I have endless energy, I am thankful. I am plugged into the source of Universal Supply, I am thankful. I am plugged into the source of Universal Truth, I am thankful. I have this constant feeling of thankfulness, which is a prayer.

— Peace Pilgrim

Praying without ceasing is not ritualized, nor are there even words. It is a constant state of awareness of oneness with God; it is a sincere seeking for a good thing; and it is a concentration on the thing sought, with faith that it is obtainable.

— Peace Pilgrim

Never think of any right effort as being fruitless. All right effort bears fruit, whether we see the results or not.

— Peace Pilgrim

You have much more power when you are working for the right thing than when you are working against the wrong thing. And, of course, if the right thing is established wrong things will fade away of their own accord. Grass-roots peace work is vitally important. All who work for peace belong to a special peace fellowship — whether we work together or apart.

— Peace Pilgrim

Spiritual truth should never be sold — those who sell it injure themselves spiritually.

— Peace Pilgrim

To attain inner peace you must actually give your life, not just your possessions. When you at last give your life — bringing into alignment your beliefs and the way you live them — then, and only then, can you begin to find inner peace.
