Peace is a meaningless concept in the absence of war. As long as you seek peace there will be war.

But I think it's a little more complex than that.

Look at a black & white picture. Now say to your self "I don't like the black parts because they represent darkness. so I am going to paint all the black as white" But look what you did! You no longer have a picture.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I guess our living picture is worth millions of souls, none of whom is complete or perfect (your millions of shades of colors). But together we make a picture, and boy, what a picture it is! And I think our living picture is moving faster than 24 frames per second.

So how many people would it take to make the world "a better place"?

Well let's say there are 6 billion people living in the world today and say that ALL of them are generally "negative".

By "negative" I mean that they have separated themselves from the Source of Creation and from each other; they are most of the time in their own head thinking only thoughts like "I", "Me" and "Mine". In fact, even the feelings that they have like love, friendship, compassion Always have an underlying intention of "What can I get out of this for myself?" Of course they are most of the time unconscious of that fact and even called on it, they will deny it. They will call you insane, heretic and so forth if you try to tell the truth to their face, because they solemnly believe that it's the world that is "crazy", not them. They believe that they are the only ones that are good and righteous.

Still, we have wars, crimes, jealousy, anger, lust, greed and all the things that separate us from each other. So this is one part of this energy.

The other part is the "positive" energy which is inclusive. It is when an individual recognizes that he is in fact a part of a Whole and a part that has a very BIG say in what the world looks like. He recognizes that he was a part of that "negative" world and now is trying to see "the big picture", to see beyond appearances of separation. It's a constant struggle at first, because most of the other people are "negative" and think his crazy, but still if he keeps going nonetheless, he will strive. He will FEEL that connection that was a fantasy at one time in his life as real and no matter what anyone says, he will live in that state of being.

So which is more powerful? Well, the "negative" is separation, which means that all the "negative" people are in fact only working for themselves. Sure, they can make "alliances" to overthrow governments or control the world, but only because of their OWN vanity and thirst of power, they do not care about the Whole at all.

So what those energy do is they add up to each other and they make 6 billion "energies" that are "negative", but working separately.

So what's with the "positive" energy? Well, the "positive" is about working together for the greater good. It's about recognizing that we are in fact All One being expressing as the many.

So those energies, because they are working together, they do not add to each other. What they do is they multiple in such a way that two people working "positively" can "overpower" (energetically) four people working "negatively". 3 positive people overpower 9 negative individuals. 4 positive overpower 16 negative. 5 positive overpower 25 negative. You get the picture?

So it is said that it is enough for 144,000 people working positively (inclusively) too energetically overpower 6 billion negative people.

And that's what is happening right now. The more people awaken the faster it will be for others too awaken, because the ball has already started rolling and there is no way of stopping it. And that's why EVERY individual is so important, because without You and without Me working on this Ascension process, nothing can happen.

When will world peace start? It will start when we All will start on working together to see that world peace is ALREADY here, but it starts with You. Are you in peace with your spouse? Are you in peace with your kids? Are you in peace with your job, your boss, your parents, your mother-in-law? Are you in peace with yourself?

If the answers to all these questions are "Yes" then you have already created word peace on Earth. Now what you have to do is to stay grounded and KNOW that what seems to be this great uneasiness right now is because we are cleansing out old systems and old ways of thinking that have no place in the "new world".

But to change them we need to look at them first. You can not change something you do not own; once you make it your own you can do with it as you please.

So it is a time for each and every one of us to work on ourselves and face our fears, our sticking points, things that trigger us to a point that we all KNOW that we are untouchable by ANY circumstance and that world peace is a natural way of evolution, because if you see another person for who he truly is, You, why would you want to hurt yourself?

Your question presumes that peace is what everybody wants. Maybe that is not so.

As with many things, peace begins at home. Do you have peace in your own house? And if you do not have peace in your own house, then why do you worry about the relative peace (or lack thereof) outside of it?

If the world really wanted peace, we would already have it. So you are essentially asking people to do something they don't want.

But why would people deny peace?

1. They harbor many years of resentment over old conflicts.
2. They are engaged in a power struggle.
3. They don't believe a lasting peace is possible.
4. They have ideological beliefs that are incompatible with peace.
5. They like the challenge and excitement of conflict.

Most people who believe in world peace also believe in freedom for all. Would you deny those people who stand to profit from war their freedom by forcing peace on them?

War and terrorism are the yang of peace. You cannot have one without the other, any more than you can have life without death. The reason this is so is because peace is a description of contrast. Without war, there would be nothing to compare peace to. People would just assume that it's a natural part of the universe, rather than something to be strived for. The word peace wouldn't even exist without war. It's a little bit like gravity; you need something to push against.

Which is not to say that I like war, I hate it. But I hate genocide too. Some things are important enough to resist. I don't think there's anything wrong with praying for peace, or trying to manifest peace, though. In fact, it may be the single most important thing we all do. But war is an asymptote; you're never going to get rid of it completely, unless you also want to eliminate free will.

If you really want to get rid of war, find a way to make it socially unacceptable. That's how we got rid of smoking in most public places. :)

good and evil will always exist it is what we make of it that determine if it is good or bad!as long as some people will have a need to make evil because they think it will make things right! it will not change!every one as free will so how can you eliminate terroriste completely? by showing the way and making example!everything will happen when it is the time for it to happen!
