Jesus said, ‘Have salt in yourselves ...

"Jesus said, ‘Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one
another.’ What is the relationship between salt and this peace
that must reign between beings? In some countries, guests are
welcomed with an offering of salt and bread. What is being
implied here is the harmonious way men and women relate when they
eat together. For people do not sit down at the same table to
enter into conflict and settle old scores – even if that does
sometimes happen!
And what is the nature of this salt which allows us to live in
peace with one another? In one of his talks, Master Peter Deunov
said, ‘Only by means of salt, by means of the balance between
your head and your heart, will you establish inner peace.’ So
salt is the result of an inner harmony between the two principles
– the masculine and the feminine, the head and the heart. It is
thanks to this harmony between the two principles that we find
peace, and once we live in peace in ourselves we can also live in
peace with others."
