Living In The Presence of God (VolII/PtII)-Chapter 32

June 2, 2007

CHAPTER 32 The inspiration behind every divine strength that arises in the good heart is "inner happiness". Yes! Happiness is not the effect but simply the cause of every divine act. Man, today, almost finds it impossible to find the silent joy of happiness with his self, alone. He has forgotten that a smile is only simple - it is only the outer expression of the inner contentment. A smile is only priceless - do not demean it by giving it a worldly value, or else, it will be

short-lived! Those that expect to smile, only by receiving, will exhaust their strength to remain happy much earlier than the last breath of the present body. Yes! Their dependence, rather than the "self-reliance", will make them experience the misery of their own shortcomings! Let not the play between you and life result in the permanent injury of the self! Play by the rules, and life, My child, can be won! The true winner is one who can remain untouched throughout the game. The true player, My sweet, touches life with his love. Realize that at the end of the game, the two teams of the life and the liver of life, join together, and each celebrate the other's victory! The victory of life is in accepting the will power of the liver of life - the victory of the liver is in accepting the ways of life! All is a play, My dears - if the play

becomes too serious, then the game looses its lightheartedness. Hence, be alert, play the game with vigor, and realize that there is no competition - the teams are truly one, and your success, at the end, is inevitable! True happiness has no reason, for a reason will only limit it to a length of time. Inner happiness is the feet that gives life its strength to stand with complete stability. Hence, do not look for ways to be happy - be happy, first, and only then, will the right ways open before you. Do not be ignorant and worry to be happy! Such a one will stay only with the worry and will walk away from the joy with every fearful thought. Remember, always, that the happiness that is found will be lost, one day. Happiness that lies

in the mine will ensure one with the misery of his impermanent identity. True happiness, is when one lets the purity of his heart direct his mind, the guidance of which, inspires the intelligence to awaken the strength and discipline of the inner self. Once such a discipline is enforced, one lives in the bliss of expressing, always, the divinity of the true self. Such expression gives one the fullness of contentment with the nature of his own being. In such a state, one experiences within him a world of love that holds within it a power that is immeasurable - Yes! A power that paves its way to every heart by the simpleness of its complete selflessness! Thus, happiness is nothing but the strength of the inner self that lets one exist in its selflessness! Live for others, My child, and

you have, instantly, found the love for true happiness. Forget completely, what you want, and you will see that your need lies in wanting even lesser. The lesser the luggage the lighter the travel! The lighter the travel, the more you will explore and discover! Discover life by touching it, at every moment, with the love you hold for your own self!
