I charge you all that each one of you concentrate all the
thoughts of your heart on love and unity. When a thought of war comes, oppose
it by a stronger thought of peace. A thought of hatred must be destroyed by a
more powerful thought of love. Thoughts of war bring destruction to all
harmony, well-being, restfulness and content. Thoughts of love are constructive
of brotherhood, peace, friendship, and happiness.
