The Peace Formula

Everyone wants peace and happiness. This is not obtainable materially. If we study history we will not find a single man who has obtained this goal through material means. Unfortunately, we refuse to learn from history, and we obstinately think that this elusive peace will be ours one day.

A fish out of the water can never be happy, regardless of the amenities that it is given to enjoy - furniture, clothes, television, etc. Similarly, the soul, when it is not acting in its constitutional position (servant of God) will always be uncomfortable.

Real peace can be had by accepting the fact that Krishna is the enjoyer, proprietor, beneficiary of all activities, and our eternal well-wisher.1

Krishna is the proprietor of all of the planets and universes. No one is greater than Him. He is the master of the material nature, and all living entities are bound by His laws. Fortunately, He is also our greatest friend. So by obeying and serving Him lovingly, we can find true peace and happiness.
