Peace not Power

The will to power and to dominate
arises only in the sick mind.
It arises out of the inferiority complex.

People who are not suffering
from an inferiority complex
do not care about power;
their whole endeavour is for peace,
because the meaning of life
can be known only in peace - power is not the way.

On a parallel, I am tempted to say that the more subtle reason behind is "desires". Inferiority complex and the its catalystic effect of craving for Power is just a byproduct of desires. Complex is only a wrapper, the inherent ingredient is "Desires".
