Episode 109: The Four Pillars of Peace

Before a society can be considered well-ordered, creative, and consonant with human dignity, it must be based on truth…Human society…demands that men be guided by justice, respect the rights of others and do their duty. It demands, too, that they be animated by such love as will make them feel the needs of others as their own, and induce them to share their goods with others, and to strive in the world to make all men alike heirs to the noblest of intellectual and spiritual values. Nor is this enough; for human society thrives on freedom, namely, on the use of means which are consistent with the dignity of its individual members, who, being endowed with reason, assume responsibility for their own actions. Pope John XXIII Pacem in Terris ("Peace on Earth") On establishing universal peace in truth, justice, charity, and liberty. Truth Peace cannot be built on a lie, nor on denial. Truth and reconciliation commissions The hypocrisy of nations Justice There can be no peace without justice, and there can be no justice without peace—MLK No justice, no peace—BLM If you want peace, work for justice— Pope Paul VI Love Peace is not compatible with hatred.

Throughout an individual's lifetime, each dosha has its time of predominance. Kapha governs childhood; pitta, maturity; and vata, old age. Thus, during the latter years of life, there is a tendency towards vata imbalances, such as memory loss, disorientation, paranoia, tremors, rigidity, cracked and quaking voice and stooped spine.
