World Peace

In this book "World Peace," we will found out that, there is not separation between our individual lives and the universe. It is why i am relating my daily life with the celebration of the "World Peace." "World Peace" is not a theory. It is not an expectation!!! "World Peace" is and eternal and unlimited reality that we all possess, since the time without beginning and end. Each individual is the manifestation of the law of life. The celebration of "World Peace" is the awareness and the awakening of our Buddhahood or our divine nature within each of us!!! To the contrary of what we all think and believe in our society, we have never lost our peace, it is not a given thing in life. "World Peace" is a sleeping quality that we can awaken anytime!!! We have our free will to continue to fool ourselves. But human beings are at the center of "World Peace" and are the question and answer of it. "World Peace" will never come from anything outside our lives like, the government, any secular and religious institutions, any country, any groups, any culture and any tradition!!! It will only come from the heart of each individual. When we talk about our heart, we don't mean our level of emotions and thoughts. But our reality beyond the subconscious!!! Every single phenomenon in life has two aspects, that is the preparatory and the definitive. Birth and death are not beginning and end of anything. They are just means or passages from one existence to another throughout the eternity of life!!! At birth we all are very tiny babies. When we reach our maturity we all are bigger and capable to think. It is why spiritually throughout the eternity of life, we have teachings that are transitory or preparatory to the one that are definitives. We are not going to give names but it is up to each one of us to find out!!! In the "World Peace" celebration, we don't assess life in terms of what is wrong and what is right or what is good and evil. This is a polar thinking that puts us in a box of extremities. Life is an eternal and unlimited one way progression!!! The dynamic definition of wisdom is to be able to adapt a solution at each circumstance in life. We go against life by trying to crystallize things. The individuality is something that is absolute. People who are still suffering dependency, submission, following, adoration of anything outside themselves will work hard to find their freedom!!! There is no need to look for what is wrong or what is right. Life being a dynamic motion, it is important to find what is appropriate for the moment. It is important to be able to live in the now. Our present moment contains our eternity which are our past, our present and our future!!! It is how we develop a peace of mind and strong faith. When we say strong faith, we don't imply any kind of dependency that takes us away from ourselves. But the conviction and confidence that comes with the knowing or the perception of our true nature or reality!!! It is just like flipping the switch of the electrical light in a dark room. Knowledge does to ignorance, what light does to darkness. In between there is action that needs courage that takes full responsibility of our lives, knowing that at each moment we write eternally the whole script of our own lives!!! We always look for easy ways to go through life. We even think that happiness is the absence of conflicts, violence, fights and wars. But that is not the case, everything being eternal, happiness is an indestructible state of life that uses everything without exception, positively throughout the eternity!!! The key point here is to raise our awareness of true reality. The time has arrived for each of us to clean up our subconscious in order to enjoy the full functioning of all our consciousnesses. In doing so, the energy coming from our ninth consciousness, the palace of our entity of life will flow in full harmony without any obstruction and disturbance!!! The essence of life becomes the main actor!!!

5World Peace  Sep 17, 2008
By Salomon Alain Mpouma "SAM"
You have certainly led an adventurous life that reflects strong multicultural interests and an appreciation for diversity. Your story is all the more interesting because of the way you relate philosophers' observations to your experiences.

It is clear that you believe deeply in the importance of introspection as a pathway to greater understanding of oneself and the human family as a whole. Your tone is respectful and nurturing.

5World Peace. As I See It by Paul Harmon  Jul 12, 2009
By Paul Harmon

Mr. Mpouma's book is divided into two parts, the first part about his early life in Cameroon, the second part about his more recent years in the U.S. Linking these two parts like a thread which becomes much
lighter, but stronger in the second part is the story of the essence and spirit of Nicherin Buddhism. Nicherin Buddhism is a Mahayana Buddhism started in the 12th century by Nicherin Daishonin, a Japanese Buddhist priest and reformer who saw in the Lotus Sutra, (next to the Nirvana Sutra, the last of the Buddha's Sutras), the definitive and climactic teaching of the Buddha which was help for people in the Latter Days of the Law, the dark years ahead. In chapter 14, Mr. Mpouma continues his own story and tells about SGI, a Nicherin Buddhist lay organization which was started in Japan in the 1930s. Mr. Mpouma has practiced Buddhism as a member of SGI for thirty years and is currently a leader in Reston District in Virginia. Chapter 15 recounts the story of a car accident which involved his mother, and highlighted and clarified for him some of his Buddhist learning. As the book progresses, more Buddhist concepts are introduced: levels of consciousness, a view of war, the ten worlds and their mutuality, karma and many more, most illustrated by experiences from the author's life. I have read "World Peace" (the second part twice) and I found it an eye opening and life changing journey. My
life, since I was nineteen, has been an odyssey, driven by bi-polar dis-
order, an unstable career of different jobs, changing relationships and a
lack of understanding as to how to help myself, with the "help" of many
well meaning people. Now at 60, with a year old Buddhist practice, the
help of my teacher, Mr. Mpouma, many friends, and the love of my sponsor, Beatrice, I am learning to take responsibility for my life, how I treat
other people, and the fact that only I can change my life. "World Peace"
has been and continues to be an integral part of this change in my life.

Don't be put off by some grammatical errors in this edition. As with any
important work, "World Peace" repays close attention many fold. If I had a choice to keep one of all the books I've read, I would unhesitatingly
chose "World Peace".
