Four Secret Keys to Peace

According to Patanjali (revered Indian guru) in the Yoga Sutras Chapter 1.33, at any time, people fall into one of these four categories: Happy, Unhappy, Virtuous, and Wicked. To keep your peace when you meet any of them, there are four secret keys:

  1. The Key of Friendliness: Meet Happy people with Friendliness.  Take joy in their joy. Happiness shared is happiness doubled. Jealousy only hurts you.
  2. The Key of Compassion: Meet Unhappy people with Compassion. We all make mistakes. We all suffer. Treat (yourself) and others with Compassion. Sadness shared is sadness halved.
  3. The Key of Delight: Meet Virtuous people with Delight. Good works in the world set ripples of positivity spreading everywhere. Partake in that positivity with your Delight.
  4. The Key of Disregard: Meet Wicked people with Disregard. Do not let the drama of others draw forth unkindness or judgment. Their path is their own to walk. Turn away and focus on improving your own path.

Four Keys.  Easy Peacy.
