Peace and Happiness

Imperishable Gems - Happiness

God is the eternal spiritual sun.

Adam is the eternal spiritual moon. Eve is the eternal spiritual star very

close to the moon. We are all eternal spiritual stars.

We are all created by eternal God in His own image.

The moon has no original light. It simply reflects the light of sun.

God is known as Sat Chit Anand.

What is the difference between Happiness and Anand (Bliss)?

Anand is the greater or higher happy state of mind.

Happiness may be momentary or short living, but Anand is eternal and

permanent.

Happiness may reduce to less happiness.

Less happiness might be considered as sorrow by most of the people.

Happiness is a state of mind, always comparable and it is our original nature.

Happiness can only be experienced when we perform actions through the subtle

or physical body. Subsequently we can recall the happy moments we had earlier

experienced through the body.

What is happiness?

Happiness is a state of mind, filled with feelings of contentment,

satisfaction, attainment, love, relationships, mental and physical health,

wealth, safety, security, desirelessness, etc.

In general, people consider the following positive environments, things are

necessary for happiness; friction free relationships, financial security, job

security, stability of the political parties, economical condition of the

country, elevated status in the society, educational qualification,

specialities, free of diseases,etc.

If our happiness is based on the above environments, we will not be

permanently happy, because the above factors cannot be controlled by us always.

Hence our happiness will also fluctuate due to the fluctuations in the

above-mentioned environments.

If you keenly observe the above listed environments, they are related with

matter.

Once we leave the physical body (when the body dies), which is made up of

matter, we will lose everything such as, all the wealth, health, and physical

relationships etc.

Because matter is ephemeral, the happiness derived from matter will also be

ephemeral and hence temporary.

One of the soul’s original natures is Happiness.

We came alone and empty handed from the soul world and we shall return as soul

and empty handed. We have to realize that we never lose anything.

The five vices rob our happiness. Our happiness would instantly reduce if we

are under the influence of any one of the five vices.

In Garden of Eden, (in the golden age), everyone was happy, because of purity.

Where there is purity, there will be peace and prosperity.

Where there is peace and prosperity, happiness will also automatically

prevail.

When we are virtuous and see only virtues in others we will be happy always.

When we do not accept sorrow from others we will remain happy.

When we give happiness to others we will receive happiness.

When we sow the seeds of happiness we will get the happiness in return, in

abundance from our eternal world community.

When we live with God and act as per His advice, we will be happy always.

Raja Yoga enable the self to attain purity and hence the experience of

happiness, more happiness and Anand in our life every moment. Now or never.

 

Peace

When we are thirsty we drink water.

When we are hungry we eat food.

When we are tired we sleep or take rest.

When we want to explore we travel.

But we always breathe either through our nose in general or through our mouth

occasionally.

We do not make any effort to breathe.

Breathing is a natural act performed by every human being.

Similarly peace is our original nature.

Before coming to this world we were residing in the land of peace along with

God.

We are the residents of the Land of Peace.

God is Ocean of Peace. He never becomes peaceless. He is eternally peaceful.

We are all children of the Ocean of Peace, God.

We are all peaceful souls created by God in His own image.

Peace is a state of harmony, consensus, and agreement.

Peace is not only the absence of violence but it is also the presence of

justice.

Peace will prevail where there is love, respect, goodwill and justice.

Peace is a journey it is not the destination.

Peace cannot be experienced where there is desire for power and advantage.

For self-sustenance experience of peace is mandatory.

The sheet of water is disturbed by the blowing wind or by dropping a stone.

One desire gives birth to another desire.

Beginning is peace and end is peace.

When the gap between beginning and end is reduced we can be closer to peace.

When we are in deep sleep we are unconsciously peaceful.

When the gaps between the thoughts are stretched consciously we can experience

peace permanently.

When we are in harmony with nature we can experience peace.

When we share we experience peace.

When we love we experience peace. When we expect we lose peace.

When we are with God and Good Company we experience peace.

When we feel that we have everything with us, we experience peace.

When we feel that we are eternal beings, we experience peace.

When we fear, feel insecure, feel lonely, threatened we lose peace.

When we consider the self as physical body we lose peace.

When we are soul conscious and God conscious we are peaceful.

When we feel that we are owned by God we will be eternally peaceful.

Raja Yoga enables the self to be peaceful always in the awakened and the

sleeping state every moment.

Now or Never.
