Peace of Mind is Most Important

For example, it was due to scientific research that the means
of communication, which had been hidden in nature in the
form of potential, became a concrete reality. Indeed, according
to God’s creation plan, everything in this world has always
been in its potential form—including all the amenities of the
modern age.

The human mind has great potential, but it can only work
in a peaceful atmosphere. In the absence of a peaceful
environment for work, the mind’s capabilities will remain
unutilized—the process that unfolds the potential of the
mind will be left uninitiated.

But those who are engaged in militancy are running
counter to this creation plan of God and in doing so, they are
destroying peace. According to the divine scheme of things, it
is essential that there should be complete peace in the world
so that people may have total freedom to think and work
undisturbed. That is the only way in which they can convert
the potential of the world into actuality. When a terrorist kills
a person, he, in actual fact, kills a mind. If he kills a group of
people, he kills a large number of minds. Given this situation,
if certain people engage in militancy in the name of a self-
styled goal, they are undoubtedly indulging in an act which is
entirely undesirable, because in doing so, they are jeopardizing
the Creator’s scheme of things.
The human mind has great potential, but it can only
work in a peaceful atmosphere. In the absence of a peaceful
environment for work, the mind’s capabilities will remain
unutilized—the process that unfolds the potential of the
mind will be left uninitiated. In such a situation, those
who perpetrate violence are indulging in an act that goes
against nature.
