TRUE HAPPINESS

True happiness is a matter of the heart. From there it wells up, suffusing your whole being with a radiance that shines through your eyes and endows your words and actions with love. It is like a steadily burning flame drawing its existence from the gratitude felt towards the Divine Father for the gift of life and from the pleasure experienced at perceiving the abundant beauty Mother Nature is bestowing upon you. It therefore requires no particular outward conditions to manifest itself- the simple fact of being alive in this human body suffices for it to be. At times you may be celebrating your happiness exuberantly, at times just live in it quietly. At all times it endows you with a lightness of being as if you were born through life by a pair of invisible wings of love.
Happiness that has its root in the Ego, on the other hand, can only happen for a particular reason. It draws its vitality, or at least part of it, from the knowledge that others are less happy than you. It always requires seperation of some sort in order to exist. It can only be achieved by either excluding certain other people or by temporarily blocking out/suppressing certain unfavorable aspects of yourself.
Whereas true happiness naturally embraces and includes anything and anyone within its radius.

LOVE LOVE

There is a kind of love which unifies and unites and one that renders us poignantly - at times even painfully - aware of boundaries, limitations and our separateness. The mastership of true loving is to attain the awareness of the first and to henceforth exist in this state even whilst passing through personal experiences of the love that separates.

LOVE ME FOR A REASON

The Ego is unconsciously aware that love has the power to bestow immortality. And because its greatest fear is to die, it is instinctively seeking after love. However, for as long as the Ego is clinging to the reasons for why it is believing itself to be loved, death remains imminently close and fear remains the dark shadow of the love it is experiencing. Only when the reason for feeling loved is an all-encompassing, unconditional love that is being felt inside your own self, does love make you immortal. Of course, your Ego is still going to die its timely death but because you have released your fears death changes from a threat into a promise.
