Peace is freedom from troubling or abusive contemplations or feelings and amicability in personal relations.

Inner peace includes peace of mind and absence of fear. Inner peace (or peace of mind) refers to a condition of being rationally and profoundly settled, with enough information and comprehension to keep oneself strong in the face of discord or stress. In this paper, I am attempting to examine about the same and the way it can be attained or experienced.
