Mildred Ryder - The Peace Pilgrim

Mildred Norman Ryder, AKA Peace Pilgrim
July 18, 1908-July 7, 1981
Spiritual Teacher, Non Violence Advocate, Peace Prophet


We must walk according to the highest light we have, encountering lovingly those who are out of harmony, and trying to inspire them to a better way.  Whenever you bring harmony into any unpeaceful situation, you contribute to the cause of peace. When you do something for world peace, peace among groups, peace among individuals, or your own inner peace, you improve the total peace picture.  No action is fruitless.

There is within the hearts of people deep desire for peace on earth, and they would speak for peace if they were not bound by apathy, by ignorance, by fear.  It is the job of peacemakers to inspire them from their apathy, to dispel their ignorance with truth, to allay their fear with faith that God's laws work - and work for good....  My simple peace message is adequate - really just the message that the way of peace is the way of love.  Love is the greatest power on earth. It conquers all things...
