Peace is the healthy and harmonious order ol life. The nucleus of this order consists of two factors: an unchangeable central point and a set of rules thai governs movement around the center. Only when all ol the various parts of a system agree upon a center and move according to a certain set of rules, is total and comprehensive order possible. For this to happen, this center must be a point on which all elements of the system agree. 1( must have unanimous appeal and universal meaning of greater impor tance than the differences inevitable to any system. Furthermore, the rules that govern the separate elements the system must be fair and consistent and must be essential to the co-existence and co-operation of the system. Only then will all the different elements of a system accept the rules willingly and co-create a healthy and harmonious order that will, in turn, benefit all elements of the system.

The three basic rules needed for creation of a system of harmonious order are as follows: Revolution vs. Rotation, Centripetal vs. Centrifugal Force, and Fairness vs. Equality. These three “rules” provide not only the principle underpinnings of a harmonious order but also strength to maintain it. In short, these are rules for peace. The reason the human body works so well, is that the body operates according to these rules.
