Good morning friends. I was reading one of our newspaper here and I just came across with the article about happiness. When I see such article about happiness I didn’t let the day pass that I’m not reading it. Cause one of my goal is to be happy and make others happy. I want to share you the article I have read and I wish you can get some good things there.
Is there anyone among us who does not wish to be happy? All of us wanted to be happy all the time and wishing that we will have no big problems that we can’t solve That’s unlikely. Happiness and sorrow do not drop from the skies. Your thoughts are the cause of happiness and sorrow. Even if you are in a happy state, and a sad thought enters your mind, you suddenly feel unhappy, isn’t it?
If you want to be ever cheerful, remember the following mantra: “Even this shall pass.” Let this be decorated permanently in your heart. With the practice of this mantra you can remain alert in the event of both pleasure and pain and stop yourself from getting engrossed in them and you can establish yourself in the highest bliss of calmness.
Pairs of opposites such as pleasure and pain, honor and insult, joy and sorrow affect the body. They will come and go in greater or lesser degree so long as the body exists. Do not be overwhelmed by them. You are the absolute Self, imperishable Atman while pleasures and pains are fleeting. How can they ever affect you? They have no existence of their own. In fact, they appear on the ground of your existence. You are distinct from them. Hence witness them, withstand them, and let them pass away. Be ever blissful and peaceful.
There is no object that brings pleasure or pain. They are creations of your mind, your thoughts and feelings. With the help of these thoughts be absorbed in your own eternal Being, the Truth absolute and be always peaceful. – The Times of India
See you on the part two of my article ...
