One is unable to stand still even for a moment! Absence of mere anger cannot be taken as peace. The winning of a desired object should not be confused with santhi (peace). Prasanthi is that, which when it pervades the heart and cannot be shaken subsequently for any reason. That type of peace alone deserves to be called Prasanthi. Prasanthi has no ups and downs, it cannot be partial in adversity and complete in prosperity. It cannot be one thing today and another tomorrow. Maintaining the same even flow of bliss, joy, always, is Prasanthi, supreme peace.
-Divine Discourse, Prasanthi Vahini.
