Prem Rawat - the 'peace'ful man

Prem Rawat , the famous orator on ‘global peace’  is indeed a great philosophical speaker. However, I noticed that in all his speeches he emphasizes that people can find peace and happiness only from their inner self and there are no other ways about it. Proof of this can be seen from an adaptation from his speech that I especially like and cannot seem to forget. It may not be exact, but I have tried to be as close as possible. (In one of his numerous speeches he was trying to explain what real peace is).

A person went to a man and asked, “Excuse me, sir. You look so happy. How is it so?

And the man replied, “I am happy because I am at peace because I have money in abundance, I have bungalows, I have servants, I have cars, I have….....” he carried on.

The person saw a monk nearby and asked him why he looked so happy. The monk answered, “I am at peace because I don’t have money, I don’t have bungalows, I don’t have……” and he carried on.

The audience laughed and clapped as though it was an indication of their agreement. I, too, could not help admiring his gift of words to execute his explanations.

Well, you, too, can judge his speeches for yourself. Just type his name in 'Youtube'.
