Given, as we are right now, a daily media cocktail of far reaching unrest in the Middle East and alleged terror plots to blow us to pieces over the Atlantic mixed with fermenting immigration issues, and you have to agree - the outlook is not good for peace in our time.

Despite the sacrifices of my grandfather’s generation, I’ve heard it said that there are more wars being waged today than ever before. The peace prognosis is not looking very positive for our so-called civilisation.

When and how will peace ever prevail on this essentially beautiful earth?

This is a world conditioned to look for answers ‘out there’ in the ways of technology, drugs and politics for example, but those methods of solving mankind’s challenges often just make more trouble - focusing, as they do, on symptoms and not root causes.

So I say the best chance we have of finding peace is to look within.

The answer to the peace problem, believe it or not, rests in meditation - the technique, when used correctly, countless individuals have employed to find peace, throughout the ages, whatever the external global conditions. And I can take you there - guaranteed.

Not unlike the Archbishop of York, Dr John Semantu, I’m on a peace mission. Yet unlike Dr John, I don’t have a cathedral, nor will I be forgoing a family holiday, relying on a liquid diet and I will not be shaving my head. And I certainly won’t be praying for peace.

I will instead be going to the heart of the matter and will be ‘being peace’- which for me is the essence of good health and wellbeing, both personal and planetary, and therefore the answer to many of our physical and emotional ills too.

What’s more, I hereby state - publicly and on the record - that I will teach anyone inspired by this message, how to meditate and find peace (as well as love and joy) for themselves - within. It’s not rocket science. It is however potentially as powerful, because meditation takes you deep into inner space.

Peace ‘out there’ will never last. The only lasting peace is found inside and it awaits you; silently, loyally and eternally. You just need the means to uncover it, which today I am promising to give you.

No, I’m not asking you to join a cult. No, I haven’t got messianic delusions of grandeur. I just know that the quickest way to find peace is to do-it-yourself. Fighting for peace is a worthless contradiction that many a peacemaker discovers the hard way.

No incense, no chanting, no bells, no robes, no shaved heads and no contorted lotus positions. Not even any Rolls Royces. Just a simple method of finding peace within that will give you, as it has given me - without fail, all the peace you could ever wish for.

If you want to learn and get relief from the relentless stress of externally-focused living with all its conflict, war and stress, email me at meditation@carlmunson.com or visit www.carlmunson.com for details of my teaching schedule.

Come on. Join me and ‘be peace’. Make that part of the world where you are a more pleasant place to be; for you and those around you. Make peace, meditate and be a beacon of all that’s good about life.

Peace begins now.
