'Be on the lookout for symptoms of inner peace. The hearts
of a great many have already been exposed to inner peace and
it is possible that people everywhere could come down with it
in epidemic proportions. This could pose a serious threat to
what has up to now been a fairly stable condition of conflict in
the world.
'Some signs and symptoms of inner peace:
- A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experiences.
- An unmistakable ability to enjoy each moment.
- A loss of interest in judging other people.
- A loss of interest in judging self.
- A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others.
- A loss of interest in conflict.
- A loss of the ability to worry (this is a very serious symptom).
- Frequent overwhelming episodes of appreciation.
- Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature. Frequent attacks of smiling.
- An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than make them happen.
- An increased susceptibility to the love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it.
'WARNING: If you have
some or all of the above symptoms, please be advised that
your condition of inner peace may be so far advanced as to
not be curable. If you are exposed to anyone exhibiting any
of these symptoms, remain exposed only at your own risk.'
