By maintaining our own as an example to others. By refusing to be swayed by our baser, ignoble instincts. By looking to God and the Bible for guidance in our daily lives, so that we shall not wander astray.

There are many different types of meditation. Most can bring you to a state of peace with practice. Any book by Thich Nhat Han is also helpful. My favorite is Peace is Every Step.

The only way to combat violence is through justice. We can remain peaceful, but still correct our society's wrong ways of handling violent people. we need to stop paying people to stay jobless and have multiple children. We need to stop the incentive progrmas we have for people to get used to having handouts.

Krishnamurti (a wonderful author) said in response to a peace activist 'If you do not have peace in yourself, you will never have peace in the world'. Committing even one act of violence against yourself or having negativity in yourself radiates into the rest of the world. Best to you.

By not allowing outside influences to affect the peace within you. It's a hard thing to do at first, and requires quite a bit of teeth-gritting at the beginning lol, but it gets easier.

Stop fighting over who's right and who's wrong and just go about our own lives. Listen to the orders Jesus gave us.

There will never be true peace until Jesus comes back to restore everything.
