Deepak Chopra�s passionate new book, Peace Is the Way, was inspired by a saying from Mahatma Gandhi: �There is no way to peace. Peace is the way.� In a world where every path to peace has proved futile, the one strategy that hasn�t been tried is the way of peace itself. �We must not bring one war to an end, or thirty,� Chopra tells us, �but the idea of war itself.�

How can this be done?

By facing the truth that war is satisfying, and then substituting new satisfactions so that violence is no longer appealing. �War has become a habit. We reach for it the way a chain smoker reaches for a cigarette, promising to quit but somehow never kicking the habit.� But Chopra tells us that peace has its own power, and our task now is to direct that power and multiply it one person at a time.

Behind the numbing headlines of violence running out of control there are unmistakable signs of a change�Chopra believes that a majority of people are ready to see an end to war. �Right now 23 million soldiers serve in armies around the world. Can�t we find ten times that number who will dedicate themselves to peace? A hundred times?�

Peace Is the Way challenges each of us to take the next leap in personal evolution. �You aren�t asked to be a saint, or to give up any belief. You are only asked to stop reacting out of fear, to change your allegiance from violence to peace.� In a practical seven-step program, Chopra shows the reader how to become a true peacemaker. �Violence may be innate in human nature, but so is its opposite: love. The next stage of humanity, the leap which we are poised to take, will be guided by the force of that love.� This is more than a hope or an aspiration. It is a new way of being in the world, giving each individual the power to end war in our time.
