“My unhappiness does not make me unhappy.”
“Unhappiness exists in the mind. And, I am under no obligation to make the mind happy.”
“Maya is the feeling that you have to make the mind happy.”
“Mind can never be happy because, being limited in all kinds of ways, it always feels a lack. And, we constantly make the mistake of trying to make it happy – a truly Sisyphean task, if ever there was one.”
“True and lasting happiness is found only when we realize the nature of the mind and thereby understand that we are not the ego or I-thought that the mind keeps generating, and thus understand we are not the mind but Consciousness, one of whose names-and-forms is mind.”
