There is a natural happy state of peace within us. This state is always present. When you are established in that state, you are happy and peaceful. When you are in that state, nothing can shake you. It is akin to an unshaken flame. Think of times when you felt one with the universe, when you are in a meditative and peaceful state. Think of times when you were full of love in a relationship, or when you were playing with a child blissfully unaware of anything else, or when you were so immersed in the joy of work that you lost sense of time. Some people call this ‘being in the zone’. Some people call this as inner serenity, which is distinct from highs and lows of pleasure and pain. This natural happy state is the feeling of consciousness within. It is the existential experience of being. It is your Higher Self.

The root thought that promotes discrimination based on nationality or race is: “My country is great” or “My race is superior.” This makes one feel that the other country is inferior. There is a need to bring in a new perspective of looking at ourselves as a 'World Citizen' along with identifying individually as an Indian or Italian or German. Only then will we be capable of saying, "My country is also great." The word 'also' communicates that we recognize the uniqueness of each and every country. Learning to see ourselves as humans first eliminates all discriminations.

A World Citizen is a one who does not have his actions and thoughts limited by the boundaries of religion, race, gender, creed, society, sect or nation. He takes care of every human life breathing on Earth with equality. He is ready to share everything that nature offers.
