Today you and I woke up and found it easy NOT to kill anyone. Our society however, can't say the same. It's time for society to take a direction that conforms to what the individual wants. There can be no excuse for living our comfortable lives embedded in a culture of mechanized death and violence. The way of peace isn't based on religion or morality. It doesn't ask us to become saints overnight, or to renounce our feelings of anger or our thirst for revenge. The way of peace is based on the same thing that ushered in the age of science: a leap in consciousness. If you and I demonstrate that peace is more satisfying than war, the collective consciousness will shift. If you shift your allegiance to peace, war ends for you today. This happens one person at a time. Join us. Become a Peacemaker. When you are firmly established in non-violence, all Beings around you will cease to feel hostility. "We must not bring one war to an end—or thirty—but the idea of war itself."

Dear friends,
Deepak Chopra's passionate new book, PEACE IS THE WAY, was inspired by a saying from Mahatma Gandhi: "There is no way to peace. Peace is the way." In a world where every path to peace has proved futile, the one strategy that hasn't been tried is the way of peace itself—facing the truth that war is satisfying, and then substituting new satisfactions so that violence is no longer appealing. Behind the numbing headlines of violence running out of control there are unmistakable signs of a change—Chopra believes that a majority of people are ready to see an end to war.
PEACE IS THE WAY challenges each of us to take the next leap in personal evolution. In a practical seven-step program, Chopra shows the reader how to become a true peacemaker. This is more than a hope or an aspiration. It is a new way of being in the world, giving each individual the power to end war in our time.
