Happiness
Book of Life
At the center of it all, there is the “me”
-the “me” that is enjoying
That wants more happiness
That searches
That longs for more happiness
It is only when “the me” in all subtle forms
Comes to an end that there is a state of bliss
That cannot be sought after
An ecstasy, a real joy without pain,
Without corruption
I think there come a ‘creative happiness’
That is not “yours” or “mine”
That creative happiness is like sunshine
If you want to keep sunshine to yourself
It is no longer the clear,warm,life-giving sun!!!
Similarly if you want happiness ,because you are suffering
Then that is merely a reaction
But when the mind can go beyond ,there there is a happiness
That is not of the mind!
My notes:
Next time, when I say to myself, “I want to be happy” -
Then I need to look for the “me” in that statement
The selfishness - in it - that want for happiness
Which is not for sharing with all - but to myself only-
In that scenario - there is only corruption
Not happiness!
