To be Happy is to find out who You are. There is nothing else to be achieved and, therefore, nothing else to be sought. Why do we travel so much and want to be in beautiful places? Why do we take so many pictures of these places and keep them with us to see them again? Beauty, wherever found, it manages to awaken in us the Truth of God that we bring and are.
We are already complete, so we only need one single journey – the journey into ourselves. As a matter of fact, this is the most beautiful “Place” of all. When we find this “Place,” we no longer need to travel to looking for beautiful places for them to make us happy, even if for a brief moment, because now we can see Beauty anywhere.
We see God everywhere when we have His eyes to see Him. These are the eyes that shine on us when we know who we really are. For many years of our lives, we have carried the dissatisfaction of not knowing who we are, living on the surface without knowing the wealth we bring within ourselves, in our depth. It is there the place of the infinite. It is the center without circumference and the circumference without center. I know these are non-sense words, but the direct experience of God is just like this: something beyond words.
To enter therein is to find yourself or to lose yourself in the Ocean with no beaches of the Supreme Happiness! This is the goal of human life: to live beyond the limits of human life, which is full of conflicts, dilemmas, problems, and all suffering of a separate existence. Such separation is created by the mind that is always dividing, comparing, judging, distorting, constructing a fake world. Seven billion human beings are living on this planet, that is, there are seven billion “worlds.” Everybody is sure about being and living in “his or her very own world.” But is there a world? Where is it? Those who realize God find out who they really are, or what they truly are.
Happiness is the simple art of being who we really are. There will not be Happiness as long as this false identification with feelings, thoughts, emotions, and this terrible and frightening identification with the body remains.
To mistake the Pure Consciousness, which does not know limits, for the so-called mind limited by its conditionings of emotions, thoughts, and feelings, produces an illusion of the identification with a false “me.” So, in this identification, this limitless Consciousness seems to sleep, which means that you, once immersed in all this, are unaware of who You are.
This way, you live without the real perception of Reality, that is, you take as reality what happens to you and not what You are, your Being, which is always free and untouchable, for it is beyond suffering, fear, and despair. For Him, there is just what is and not what should or could be.
