No it doesn't sit well with me either.  So there was this fairly simple idea we had back in the seventies - Guru Maharaj Ji was going to bring peace by spreading it on an individual basis, heart to heart - if all the individuals had peace inside them then the world would be at peace.

I dunno if it really works like that, it doesn't we live and we learn but we were sincere in believing him.

Using the title inside peace to me is unkind - it is like Rawat is expressing contempt towards the premies who believed him back in the 70's, like he is saying peace inside, or peace of mind to use an old-fashioned phrase is worth no more than a double-meaning joke.

And we've got an instinct for inner peace don't we, a deep down instinct at work for all our life.  Not something to be disrespected imo.

It was the recognition that far from having peace of mind I was highly conflicted that started my conscious thought trail out of the cult that had imprisoned my youthful mind.  

so nice to see you here again, Bob.
