INNER PEACE
Inner Peace = outer peace / inner happiness x outer war / inner turmoil Inner peace (or peace of mind) is a state of psychological or spiritual peace despite possible stressors. Being «at peace» is considered by many to be healthy (homeostasis) and the opposite of stress or evil, peace of mind is also associated with overall joy, happiness, and a meaningful life. peace of mind can be alertness and composure, the main thing is freedom from the influence of stress, in some cultures, a state of awareness or enlightenment that can be cultivated through various forms of practice/devotional practice, such as breathing exercises, prayer, meditation, tai chi or yoga, is considered inner peace. many spiritual practices refer to this inner peace as the experience of self-realization, people have trouble recognizing their inner spirituality because everyday stressors get in the way; Finding peace and happiness in the small joys of life can seem difficult, achieving spirituality is a gradual process; daily spiritual growth and development through health and truth, inner peace can be described as «a pleasant emotional state of low arousal with a sense of balance or stability.» Tenzin Gyatso, the current and 14th Dalai Lama, emphasized the importance of internal peace in the world:
The problem of real, lasting world peace is related to the human race, so basic human feelings are also at its root, real world peace can be achieved through inner peace, in this case, the importance of personal responsibility is quite clear; we must first create an atmosphere of peace within ourselves, and then gradually expand it to include the whole of humanity in our families, communities, and ultimately.
Man is the only creature that talks to himself. throughout the day we constantly talk to ourselves, gather information about the environment – life, a person acts exactly like a programmer entering information into a computer, with one difference: the human brain is both a programmer and a computer at the same time. Humans have the SOUL POWER to realize their potential. This is the external purpose of man. The problem is that this EXCESSIVE or MISAD pursuit of growth and development is a barrier to happiness and contentment. We have many wrong beliefs about life. Example: I will be happy if this wish comes true! The body is always afraid of death according to the laws of nature. Saying you are not afraid is a sign of hypocrisy. Man learns the meaning of death and not really fearing it – by believing in the existence of resurrection and correctly understanding its meaning, and that true faith reveals and educates the secret of death. During life, do not give the reins to excessive desires or passions. Together, these two essentially constitute nafs. It is important for a person to satisfy the needs of the soul, but there must be a Balance between the Soul and the Body. Then the soul finds its True Lord. Of course, in the first place, physical passions (food, sleep) are important from the point of view of natural laws, but also soul passions (to see, know, hear, get to know) are equally important. The most important thing for a person is that the soul and body do not go beyond the limits of Truth and that both are in harmony and agreement.
Yin and yang is a concept that originated in Chinese philosophy, describing opposite but interrelated, mutually eternal forces. Yin and Yang technology is the foundation of critical and deductive reasoning for effective differential diagnosis of diseases within

Internal conflict is a struggle within the human mind. In contrast to external conflict, a person’s self-conflict is not a surprising phenomenon in psychology. It seems normal to many people, but many do not admit it. A dilemma that creates internal conflict is usually some kind of ethical or emotional question. The questions that the mind asks itself that cause internal conflict are «What did I do wrong?», «Where did I go wrong?», «It’s all my fault, he’s to blame for nothing,» etc. self-stimulating affirmations.

The ability to experience peace is the advantage of the countryside over the cities. In a survey conducted by the UK’s Department for Environment, Food and Agriculture (DEFRA), 58% of people said that tranquility was the most enjoyable feature of the countryside. The existence of quiet areas helps to revive rural tourism. Rural tourism in the US supports 380,000 jobs and contributes £000.13 billion to the rural economy each year, and one survey found that tranquility is the top reason for attracting 9% of visitors to rural areas.
From Outer Peace to Inner Peace. INNER PEACE requires a significant amount of cognitive effort. Constant mental activity can lead to long periods of attention fatigue. This can affect productivity, cause negative emotions, irritability, and decreased sensitivity to interpersonal situations. As the incidence of mental illness continues to rise, the influence of the indoor environment contributes to health and well-being. The effect of Inner Peace contributes to physical (body happiness) and psychological well-being (soul happiness). Calm natural surroundings affect the psychology of people suffering from depression. For example, one study found that stress (blood pressure, muscle tension, body response) induced by showing videos of workplace injuries (horror) followed by nature images and the sound of the Qur’an was added to the videos, resulting in faster recovery of health.
In ancient Greek philosophy, ataraxia, generally translated as «integrity,» «integrity,» «equality,» or «tranquility,» is a state of assured equanimity characterized by permanent freedom from calamity and anxiety. In non-philosophical usage, ataraxia was the ideal state of mind for warriors going into battle. Ataraxia is also a blissful state of mind that is considered the highest good. The highest state of mind and body Ataraxia or peace of mind is the ultimate goal of life. Ataraxia is sadness, absence of unhealthy desires, mental calmness.
Meditation is a practice in which an individual uses techniques such as focusing the mind, or focusing the mind on a particular object, thought, or action, to focus and awareness, to achieve a state of mental clarity and emotional calmness and stability. meditation significantly reduces stress, anxiety, depression, pain, and enhances calmness, self-awareness, and happiness. Research is ongoing to better understand the effects of meditation on health (psychological, neurological, and cardiovascular) and other areas. Equanimity (patience) is a state of psychological stability and composure that is not disturbed by the experience or exposure to emotions, pain or other phenomena that may cause others to lose their mental balance.
The word «Islam» is derived from the Arabic word «aslama» which refers to the peace that comes from complete surrender and acceptance. From this, it can be understood that being a Muslim means being everything, that it originates from the ultimate wisdom of God, and that being a Muslim can be realized only in the condition of equality of each other. Allah says in the Qur’an: «Allah guides those who seek His pleasure in the path of peace» (Qur’an 5:16). «Surely, by remembering Allah, hearts find peace» (Qur’an 13:28). «Say, O Muhammad, it (the Qur’an) is a sure guide and a healer for those who believe» (41:44). Then Allah sent patience to His Prophet and Companions, sent unseen warriors, and punished those who did not believe (9:26). He sent rest to the hearts of the devotees so that their faith would increase. To Allah belong the armies of the heavens and the earth. Allah is All-Knowing and All-Wise (48:4). Allah was pleased with the believers when they swore allegiance to you under the tree in Hudaybiyah. He knew what was in their hearts and gave them peace and rewarded them with a near victory (48:18). Aisha (may God be pleased with her), the wife of the Messenger of God (may God bless him and grant him peace), reported that whenever he thought about a problem, he hurried to pray. And our Prophet as he said: «Prayer was the coolness of my eyes and comfort in the world.» Notice the difference between us and the Messenger of God. The prayer was cold to my eyes… It was a prayer that gave him peace and comfort, and he found it suitable in this way – standing in front of God Almighty in prayer. In conclusion, let us turn to the words of Hasan al-Basri. This famous scientist and righteous man said: «Seek happiness in one of three actions – reciting the Qur’an, reciting dhikr (remembering the Lord) and praying.» at the same time, he added: «If you do not find happiness in these three things, the doors of happiness are closed to you and you will not find it anywhere.» THIS MEANS THAT ISLAM SHOULD BE ACCEPTED SCIENTIFICLY AND NOT IN MADNESS OR IMITATION. Deep down, all people understand that true happiness continues in heaven. Because only then can there be peace, tranquility and grace. Only in paradise can a person get rid of fear, anxiety, and pain, which are an integral part of life on earth, and find peace. And the inhabitants of Paradise will be given a unique opportunity to see God Almighty, and the soul of every believer (purified soul) strives for this. The doors of happiness are closed, and you cannot find the harmony you seek except by worshiping the Lord.
