What stops us from being happy?
Simplest answer is that we don’t allow ourselves to be happy. We have forgotten to be happy.
We live in ignorance oblivious to the fact that we are Happiness ; our true nature is happiness, and yet we continue to veil that in multiple layers.
We take life too seriously!
We live in plurality, forgetting our journey to Unity.

Before we begin our spiritual journey , as uninitiated person, we take all this maya to be real….. though it is as real as Shelob, Belrog, an Orc, a Warg or a Gollum.More importantly we continue to live reactively to this unreal ‘ reality’.
We continue to run after pleasure, possessions and position, forgetting the Peace.
Once we realize this is maya, we may still continue to stay unhappy as we get disillusioned and confused.
Only knowledge of ‘within’, the Atma Bodha can make us happy. Are we ready to unlearn the maya-avidya ?
Once there is infinite longing for Him, ones anguish becomes a token of God’s love.
When one imbibes the knowledge that Maya itself is manifestation of Brahman; when we practice and apply that knowledge, we begin to see divinity in all- All in Self and Self in All…..
The limitless love beyond space, time and matter..
The definition of pleasure, possession and position changes as one starts discovering true.unconditional happiness-
How can one be unhappy then, when one is happily established in Brahman( pleasure) has wealth of higher love ( possession), and has exalted position of transcending body, mind intellect. ( position). This all becomes Peace!
Let us Be Happy!
Are we ready to ‘be happiness’ ?
