Peace

This Soul ... is imprisoned and held in the country of complete peace, for she is always in full sufficiency, in which she swims and bobs and floats, and she is surrounded by divine peace, without any movement in her interior, and without any exterior work on her part. These two things would remove this peace from her if they could penetrate to her, but they cannot, for she is in the sovereign state where they cannot pierce or disturb her about anything.  Marguerite Porete

No soul can have rest until it finds created things are empty.  Julian of Norwich

For the Divine Peace remains indivisible and shows forth all its power in a single act, and permeates the whole world without departing from its own identity.  Dionysius the Areopagite

He is One, Governor, Self of all, Creator of many out of one. He that dare discover Him within, rejoices; what other dare rejoice? He is the imperishable among things that perish. Life of all life, He though one, satisfies every man's desire. He that dare discover Him within, knows peace; what other dare know peace?  Katha Upanishad

Inner peace is only to be had after a bitter fight with our personality.  Hubert Benoit

To sit in the Throne of God is to inhabit Eternity. To reign there is to be pleased with all things in Heaven and Earth.  Traherne

The shining of the mere object, as though with a voidness of one's own nature, is samadhi.  Patanjali
