Guest guest Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Happiness Lies in Hard Work-Divine Discourse in June 2003. Bend your body. Discharge your duty with the sweat of your brow. Only then can you get the right reward. Today people are suffering for want of food and water. What is the reason? Man is not undertaking righteous actions. When man does his duty sincerely, there will be no shortage of food and water. Without working hard, one cannot lead a happy life. Na Sukhat Labhyate Sukham (one cannot derive happiness out of happiness). We can get happiness only when we work hard. For every action of ours, there is bound to be reaction. For every sound that we make, there will be resound. When we undertake righteous actions and utter sacred words, the same will come back to us in the form of reaction, reflection and resound. Embodiments of Love! Our actions should be such that they bring happiness to ourselves as well as others. Fist of all, we have to enquirer what is true happiness and what is sorrow. People think that happiness lies in eating to their fill and having a sound sleep. That is no happiness at all... Happiness lies in working hard and serving society. We can experience peace and happiness only when we help the poor and needy. After our daily prayer, we utter Santhi Santhi Santhi thrice. Where is peace? It is inside, not outside. Outside there are only pieces! You are the embodiment of peace, you are the embodiment of peace, you are the embodiment of love, you are the embodiment of God. Everything is inside. How foolish it is to search for peace outside when it is present within!... You have to put in proper effort to experience the peace that is within. You have to turn your vision inward. When two branches of a tree rub against each other repeatedly, fire is produced. Similarly, continuously hard work will produce Jnanagni (fire of wisdom). Embodiment of Love In the world today, people do not want to put in hard work. But they aspire for happiness. Where from does happiness come? It does not come from a lie of ease... Happiness comes only from hard work. Therefore, you have to do hard work. You can find happiness everywhere in the world if you earn the desseverness to experience it.
