Sorted Outside, Stirred Inside— A Story on Real Peace
Before We Begin…
Everyone talks about peace. The stillness of a hilltop sunrise? Or is it merely a brief pause between two waves of anxiety?Most of us confuse peace with the absence of disturbance. If no one argues with us, if the city is quiet, if things go as planned—we say we’re at peace. But the moment something shifts—a rude email, a delayed payment, someone not texting back—we feel restless.
Why?
We spend years chasing peace like a misplaced object — assuming it’s hiding in the next person, the next job, the next apology.But maybe peace isn’t missing. Maybe it’s just forgotten.
This is a story about Advait, CEO of a company, that will bring out a new understanding of ‘peace’.
The Illusion of Calm
Advait Malhotra was admired in his circles. At just 32, he had it all. A successful fintech startup, a plush Bengaluru penthouse, organic green smoothies delivered every morning, and even a regular spot on business podcasts. Everyone envied him, especially because he never seemed stressed.
But behind his sleek calmness was a carefully curated facade. Advait had trained himself to avoid conflict, suppress emotion, and escape every uncomfortable moment. If a team member disagreed, he nodded politely and reshuffled them. His peace was made of detachment and escape. A glass dome of controlled silence.
One evening, while he was hosting a wellness webinar, his phone lit up: “Dad. 9 missed calls.” That wasn’t normal. He ignored it,
then ten minutes later, another message: “Advait, please come. Your mother isn’t responding.”
Cracks in the Glass Dome
The next morning, he was in Delhi. His mother had suffered a minor stroke—not fatal, but shaking. She lay in bed, eyes open but quiet. His father looked older than he remembered. And, the home that once smelt of mustard seeds and old melodies now felt like a silent corridor of worry.
“Beta,” his father whispered over dinner
“you’ve done well. But why don’t you stay a few days? Just a few days. Be with her. She’ll feel better.”
Advait had meetings lined up. His calendar was color-coded and tightly packed. But something inside, some invisible tug, made him nod.
And those few days unmasked his illusion of ‘peace’.
The Spill That Broke the Surface
The first trouble started when Advait’s father, in a nervous moment, accidentally spilled tea on his laptop. Advait felt a strong anger building up—his fists tightened—but he didn’t say anything. Later, when alone in his room, he thought to himself “Why am I feeling like this? I’m supposed to be calm.”
There were no office calls or meetings to divert his attention to. No podcasts to distract him. No to-do lists. Just him—and the thoughts he had pushed aside for so long.
Now those thoughts were rising, one by one, like bubbles in boiling water.
And he didn’t know how to make them stop.
A Voice from the Past
On the third night, while gently massaging his mother’s hand, she opened her eyes slightly.
“You’re still the same, na? Running away from noise?”
He stilled. “What do you mean?”
She smiled faintly, “Even when you were a child. You couldn’t stand fights. You’d run to your room when Papa and I argued. You thought if you avoided it, it would disappear.
But beta,
“Peace is not a condition. It is our quality—like the fragrance in a flower.”
It’s who we were before the noise of expectations, stress and ambition covered us.” He didn’t reply. But her words stayed.
That night, while searching for his charger in the drawer, he found a folded piece of paper—faded at the edges, unmistakably in his mother’s handwriting.
It read:
“You don’t need a quieter world to feel peace. Just a quieter mind that remembers who it is.”
He remembered brushing her off years ago when she mentioned meditation during one of his rare visits.
“Maa, come on… I’ve got everything under control. I don’t need all that.”
But now? Now, his sorted life felt like dust on glass—wiped by one gust of reality.
Sitting with the Storm
The next morning, he didn’t reach for his phone. Instead, he sat on the edge of the bed, closed his eyes, and just… breathed.
He didn’t chant. He didn’t play flute music. He remembered the note. And his mother’s words.
He tried to observe:
Who am I, beneath all this fear? Beneath the role, the mask, the CEO tag?
It was awkward. Restless. His mind fought back.
But something inside him—small but steady—stayed.
Each day, he gave ten minutes to this pause. Not to blank his mind, but to listen.
Gradually, the layers began to shift.
He began asking new questions—not to others, but within.
What am I really feeling? Why do I avoid discomfort? What am I protecting?
This simple act—of being with himself—became a mirror.
And not all of it was pretty. But it was honest.
Building Stillness, Brick by Brick
Back in Bengaluru, things resumed.
Emails. Deadlines. An unexpected PR issue. The old Advait would’ve polished the situation with jargon and delayed meetings.
But now, before reacting, he sat.
Just for a few minutes.
And in that stillness, something softened.
He didn’t avoid the situation. He addressed it—honestly, without overthinking how it looked. This surprised the people around him as well.
Meditation hadn’t made him perfect. But it had begun unfreezing the parts of him that had stayed numb for years.
A New Beginning : A Work in Progress
Months later, he was still at it. Ten minutes in the morning. Sometimes just before a tough conversation. Just a quiet pause—a moment to step back from the noise outside, and tune in to the stillness within.
Yes, he was still impatient on some days. Still preferred silence over uncomfortable calls.
But something had shifted.
He no longer tried to fix the world to feel okay.
He was still learning how to feel calm—one thought at a time.
But now he understood something important: peace isn’t something you build.
It’s already inside you. You just need to find it.
This was the fictional story of one person’s journey—a return journey to that original state we all carry deep within us—peaceful, powerful, pure.
And if something in his journey felt familiar—
if even one part of it mirrored something quietly stirring in you—then maybe this is your moment too.
Not to withdraw, but to re-align.
Not to change your world, but to change the place you live it from— the seat of the soul.
Final Affirmation: A Peace That Moves With You
I may not control how the world moves, but I can choose how I respond.
Each day, I take a few moments to return to myself—
to the calm, steady presence beneath all the noise.
I am a soul, calm and capable, not defined by chaos around me.
I respond, I don’t react.
I carry peace with me—not as a shield, but as my natural state.
