We miss the true life. In fact, happiness arises when you stop chasing for something other than your own pure nature. And this happiness remains with you. The universal tendency in human beings is to seek lasting happiness in the field of names and forms—a transient field. This is really a form of avoidance and a distraction from what is timelessly present and ever perfect within us—our divine nature and Self. Ignorance of the Truth is the main cause of misery. Avoid expectations and especially be aware of the tendency to wait for 'next' as a promise to happiness —the next good feeling, the next adventure or invitation from the mind—. The next experience, in fact, does quite the contrary: it pulls your attention away from pure presence, , the seat of joy. - Mooji - |
