(iii) Secret of Happiness

 

29. Lack of the knowledge of God is the root of all sorrows in life

and misery in the world.

 

30. You can find strength, solace, eternal bliss, everlasing peace

and immortality in God alone.

 

31. All will pass away. So be not vain of thy body, intellect and

wealth. O deluded man!

 

32. Know that whatever the external condition may be, you are

Satchidananda Atman. Thy real nature is peace and bliss.

 

33. There is a heaven of eternal bliss within the reach of every man.

 

34. There is an intense longing in all for eternal happiness and for

freedom and perfection.

 

35. Man is God in disguise, who puts on a garb of fun, but quickly

forgets his true identity.

 

36. He aspires for Immortality, eternal bliss, perennial peace; he

longs for eternal existence; he thirsts for infinite knowledge; he

hankers for eternal happiness.

 

37. He is the Immortal Soul whose essential nature is Sat-chit-

ananda (Existence, Consciousness and Bliss Absolute).

 

38. Desire drags him down, discrimination lifts him up.

 

39. On the wings of purity and dispassion the aspirant sours high to

the realm of Infinite Bliss.

 

40. Essentially man is a spiritual being.

 

41. Wake up and recognise your t rue self. You are an embodiment of

energy, strength, wisdom, peace and bliss.

 

42. You are Atman. You are devoid of evils and passions. You are

ever pure.

 

43. In essence you are purest of the pure.

 

44. You are self-contained, Paripoorna. Therefore desires cannot

find any place in you.

 

45. In silence, confidence and meditation shall be your strength.
