THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

The greater the desires, the lesser the happiness you will experience. Promote

the sense of contentment. The discontented man loses everything; only the

contented man can experience real joy. The happiness in life will be in inverse

proportion to your desires. In the journey of life, as in a railway journey, the

lesser the luggage (desires) you carry, the greater the comfort. What is it that

prevents man from securing never-ending happiness? There are five kinds of

sufferings (kleshas). First is ignorance (avidya klesha); second is

unsteadiness (asthitha klesha); third is immaturity (abhinava klesha); fourth

is attachment (raaga klesha) and fifth is hatred (dwehsa klesha).
