THE DESIRED PEACE
Lecture, given by the Beinsa Douno, August 28, 1938, Sofia, Izgrev
Nowadays, more than any other time, the contemporary world needs peace. Why? Peace has provided conditions for the greatest acquisitions of culture and the fifth human race is on its way to assure it.
Nowadays, more than any other time, there are reasonable people who have come to the awareness that the first condition for the normal development of humanity is peace. That is why, today, all conscious and intelligent people are working for the attainment of peace.
In the past ages and races the leaders of humanity considered that the world could be arranged only by means of a war. Later on, all leaders of humanity became convinced in the falseness of this view. The fifth human race – a bearer of peace – is fighting for peace, so that it can become the mother of the sixth human race – the race of brotherhood among nations. The sixth race will be the bearer of Love among all people and nations. Then all nations will live for one another: big nations will be the elder brothers in the family, and small nations will be the little ones. Both of them will live in peace and consent among themselves. This is the Will of God, the Creator of the Universe. When will this time come? In the very near future.
Contemporary humanity is at the entrance of a new age, as the Solar system has already entered into the area of the Divine dawning. When this time comes, no conditions will exist for the life of evil people. One after another they will perish and the Earth will be released of them. The new conditions, which are coming, will not stand evil. They themselves will destroy it. The darkness will raise its curtains and go to another place. The evil will take its capitals and go to another place, where it will establish its banks and offices. If you read the Scriptures, this alone is enough for you to get convinced that the future age is not so remote.
Today all people need reasonable and conscious trust. How will you get to know that the new age is coming? As you know the rising of the Sun. Do you need a proof that the sunrise comes after the break of the dawn? When the dawn of the new life breaks, the Sun has already begun to rise. It is mentioned in the Scriptures, that with the coming of this age on Earth, the Sun will begin to darken and the Moon will lose its light – and then the Son of Humanity will reveal His knowledge on Earth. "The Sun will darken" – these words concern the period of time when people will cease to think that it is possible for one nation to dominate over another one by force. "The Moon will lose its light" – it concerns the period of time when the religions and the religious systems will cease to consider that it is possible for them to arrange the world.
So, when all nations, religions and states cease to think that they are empowered to arrange the world, then the Son of Humanity will appear on Earth with His knowledge. Everyone will see Him without the need of any proofs. How will you prove to someone that the Sun is rising? The sunrise does not need any proofs. It is enough for you to look through the window or to go outside and you will see and get convinced in the fact, that the Sun has really risen.
One should give way to the new heart, which is made of soft material, not of stone, as the present one is. The soft heart is woven by the material of kindness. Therefore, the kind-hearted person is a candidate for the new race. The softness of heart is one of the signs for the representatives of the sixth race. It is said in the Scriptures: "I shall take their hearts of stone and give them new hearts." The hard, stone made human hearts will be used for paving the streets, while the soft ones will remain to ripple, to show the world the greatness and beauty of the Divine life. About that day specifically the Scriptures say that God will impart His Spirit in the soft hearts of humans and that everyone – both little and big people and nations – will get to know Him. The consciousness of humans will be gradually awakened in the same way as the buds of the flowers break open in the spring in order to blossom and bear fruit.
The great in human life consists in the awakening of consciousness and in the liberation of humans from their present hardships and adversities. There are thousands of things in human life which may bother you, but there are also thousands of things which may bring you joy. Whoever comprehends the great laws of God will be glad to meet a good, clever and learned person; to meet a poet, a writer, a musician, an artist, a farmer, a stone-cutter and so on. Rejoice, when you meet someone who is working for the elevation of humanity. Without the understanding what a person presents indeed, you will behave slightingly, saying: "This one is a farmer, that one is a stone-cutter." A farmer is that one who cultivates the ground. A stone-cutter is that one who cultivates the stones. An artist is that one who cultivates the human faces. A sculptor is that one who rectifies the human mistakes. However, everyone who creates something valuable in order to cultivate, elevate and make the others joyful, is on his/her place. A mighty power is hidden in the word of all writers, poets, scientists and philosophers! The word is a mighty thing!
Once a youngster fell in despair and decided to commit a suicide. He put a revolver in his pocket and went to a forest in order to fulfil his intention. But a young woman had followed him without his knowledge. And when he wanted to commit the suicide, she came to him and quietly whispered a word into his ear. After the young man heard this word, he threw his revolver away and said: "I will not commit a suicide. I will live for myself, for my fellowmen and for humanity. Life is worth living, for it is full of sense!"
Which is the word, that the young woman whispered to the young man? You know this word, I will not tell it to you. In some cases only a word is sufficient to take someone out of his hard situation. It is not necessary to tell this one many things! One word will work, but it should be Divine. And what is said, it will be. God said: "Let there be light!" – and there was light. During the six days of creation of the world, God said one word each day, but these words were so mighty, because they were words of the Divine language. What God had said, everything happened. On the seventh day He said nothing, because He wanted to rest.
It is time for uniting of all humans in their minds, hearts and wills, so that they can work together for the implementation of peace. All humans – believers and unbelievers – should be penetrated by this idea. It is mentioned in the Scriptures: "Who will stand to the end, they will be saved." or in other words: "Who will win the war for peace, they will be saved."
Contemporary believers speak about Love, but they do not apply it. Whoever has Love within, they can raise and lower their body temperature by whatever number of degrees they wish and whenever they wish. Who can oppose a person, whose temperature is ten thousand degrees? Whatever obstacles may such persons meet in their way, they will instantly overcome them. Thus will they show others the power of Divine Love. Everywhere they pass, their way will be open. The persons of Love are able to increase not only their warmth, but also their light, making it a thousand times brighter than the solar light. Such light will blind even the most numerous and powerful army. People cannot imagine such light, which is a thousand times brighter than the solar light. But with such light everything can be attained. Everyone who has warmth of ten thousand degrees and light, that is a thousand times brighter than the solar light, can melt the safes of all bankers, warm all frozen hearts and remove all barriers, which the human egotism has placed in their way.
Great warmth and light are coming into the world. These are Divine powers, which will warm and enlighten the human hearts and minds. When warmth and light of Love come into the world, they will melt and burn all evil, criminal people, so only good and righteous persons will remain to live and it will become clear that one cannot play with Love. One is not allowed to play with Love. Today people are terrified by the thought of being submitted to a temperature of ten thousand degrees. But what will be their state, when Christ comes to Earth? Then the temperature will be much higher than ten thousand degrees. Christ said: "May My peace be with you!"
So, Christ is also for peace. He is for that peace, which is based on Love and brotherhood among all nations, societies and individuals on the face of the Earth. Brotherly love and sisterly love are nothing else but branches of the future culture. These two kinds of love are more elevated than motherly love. However great motherly love may be, there is still a little egotism in it. Take for example love of the tigress to its cubs. Out of love to them, any moment the tigress is ready to kill each living creature who will cross its way. In this sense, motherly love presents the roots of life, while brotherly love and sisterly love present the branches of life. Divine love presents the fruits of the Tree of life.
The fruits of Divine Love come from the roots of motherly love through the branches of brotherly and sisterly love. Future people will eat these specific fruits and attain immortality. These fruits will bring the new life. Anywhere you go in the world, you will meet representatives of the new life. They can be distinguished by the soft and pleasant light coming from their eyes. We call them "brothers and sisters of humanity", bearers of the inner Divine source. Christ is a new person. He said: "I did not come to do My will, but the will of That One Who had sent me. I came to bring peace to the world." By the time of His coming, the Jewish people followed the letter of the law of Moses. By that time, the Jews killed lambs, sheep and oxen and offered them as a sacrifice to God. But their life changed radically with the coming of Christ. Christ destroyed the old life at one swoop. The Jews came to the awareness that the real sacrifice consisted in the good thoughts, feelings and deeds.
