Very much revised, from Mar. 7, 2022.
A much more detailed discussion of peace as a divine quality has been added.
I’ve said this about higher-dimensional love and here the Arcturian Group says it about higher-dimensional peace:
“True peace is a peace that the third-dimensional state of consciousness knows nothing about and thus can never successfully create through treaties, wars, dominance, and punishment–ideas based in the sense of separation.” (1)
Certainly peace, as I’ve known it on a few occasions, was for me not what I expected and not like anything I’d ever known before.
I entered a state of true peace again around a week or two ago (it’s all recorded). It’s milder now than it was when I started out, but it retains its essential features.
The mind and feelings are totally quiet. I’m much more fluid and flexible than I was. I’m simply here with nothing going on with me.
I noticed today that I’d lost all hostile intent – simply from being in this space. It took no mental gymnastics, no strict regimen of any kind, no mantra repetition. I didn’t stand on my head or eat only a certain food.
The state of consciousness – peace – simply arose. And simply as a result of being in it all hostile intent fell away.
I was no longer even snotty. I actually wanted to be friendly. This depth of harmlessness is new for me. My automatic reaction patterns are all pretty male.
I also notice that I feel complete with my past. I have no outstanding puzzles to be solved, relationships that entangle, or burdens on my consciousness.
It’s not that they got solved. They got resolved, in that they simply disappeared.
That shouldn’t be hard for us to imagine. We change a topic and forget what we were talking about a minute ago. That is also a disappearance. In this case we have forgotten what it was we were all arguing about.

There are no more attachments that prevent me from carrying out my duties when the time arrives. I could get up out of this setting tomorrow, if need be, and leave it behind.
But back to peace. Saul tells us our nature is peace.
“Your true nature is perfect peacefulness, the ‘peace that passeth all understanding,’ and you are returning to an eternal awareness, an infinitely powerful knowing – far greater than experience – of your own magnificence.” (2)
The Arcturian Group calls it our birthright.
“Peace is the birthright of every person because it is the reality – globally and individually.” (3)
Peace is the reality. War is not the reality. War has to be financed and soldiered and supplied and relieved. It takes a lot to conduct a war. Once you run out of money, the default is peace.
It takes nothing to maintain peace. Peace maintains itself. Peace is the way things are, but not for us humans. In fact, war has seemed like the default for humanity. As an historian, I assert that our history has been a history of war, conquest, domination.
Peace is nature’s beginning and ending. When nothing disturbs it, peace reigns. War greatly disturbs it. But when the guns falls silent, nature retakes the battlefield.
Michael asks:
“What is the meaning of peace? Yes, there are various explanations … but in fact most of it relates to the cessation or the absence of war.
“Now I am certainly not saying that that is not significant. It is, but it is not the level of peace – or it is not the fullness of the mission of peace that I am entrusted with – with all of you, and with many galaxies far beyond in the name and on behalf of the Mother and Father.” (4)
No, that superficial understanding of peace is not the foundation for Michael’s work. This peace that I was experiencing recently and have experienced at other times in my life, such as the experience of seeing a peaceful man on a train platform led to a year or so ago – this peace is it. And much, much deeper than this.
I’m quite sure that the level of peace he’s talking about is far deeper than anything I’ve known. But what I’ve known are all waystations on the road that leads there.
The point is to get that, as long as we remained in Third-Dimensional awareness, we wouldn’t have had the experience of the peace that awaits us in the Fifth Dimension.
He adds:
“Some of you have never had a moment of peace, in body, in form, in existence of this incarnation that you are currently occupying. But most of you have had that [inner] knowing of peace.” (5)
Not a moment of outer peace but an inner knowing. That’s as good as it got.
I feel sad thinking that some folks have never known a moment of peace. As a person who worked with refugee law, I can imagine that that is so in our world. Child brides, trafficked children, battered wives, female genital mutilation, etc.
The inner knowing he points to comes from having experienced peace in other lifetimes, I suspect. I find it difficult to describe that inner knowing. It’s like a felt certainty about the fact that peace exists, even if we’re not feeling it in the moment (or ever). You just know peace exists.
Your faith in peace is rock-solid. You feel 100% stable.
You’ve forsworn violence. You’ve forsworn corruption, control, domination, etc. You know the ground you’re standing on. And your experience of your physical stand is firm, in a way it never was before.
What is not as generally known is that that space is attainable. They give me previews because they know I’ll write about them.
Finally Archangel Michael suggests:
“When there is not only the acceptance of the knowing of the truth [but also] the anchoring of that, then, what happens, there is an up-welling, a surge, not quite a tsunami – because peace is peaceful – but there is a surge of simply knowing that everything is as it should be. And even when there is apparent chaos in the outer, there is a knowing by holding that peace that the outer reality, the outer world will fall into alignment.” (6)
I can’t say I’ve reached the depth of peace that would have me see that everything is alright as it is. Not there yet.
I’ve felt that everything within me was as it should be.
I look forward to going deeper and deeper into the space of peace for the realizations and transformations in my being that peace makes possible. I said a while ago that a still or quiet mind was a launch pad. Peace is a divine quality rather than just the absence of thought and feeling.
Peace is very pleasurable. But mostly it’s so reassuring. What is reassuring about it is that one feels rock-solid in and with oneself. As long as one remains peaceful, and as long as the experience of this level of peace lasts … I don’t know how to say it. One enters into the world from a position of knowing, of clarity, of purpose. You’re now squeaky clean, in my estimation. Peacefulness is squeaky clean.
For me this is like following David Attenborough down into the blue depths. This is a deep dive for me.
