The Secret of Being Happy : 22.





Thus, to reiterate, you can be happy merely by being, merely by existing, and not by possessing. Merely because you are, you are happy. God is; you are. All that which is in its essentiality is free, unhampered, and therefore, happy. God is Pure Existence, Consciousness and Bliss, Sat-Chit-Ananda. So happiness is Pure Being, which is identical with Pure Consciousness, unlimitedness of freedom. Happiness is spontaneous.


You will find that to contemplate in this way is next to impossible for most people. You would prefer to thank God that you are relieved of this yoga and go home, rather than think in this way and sacrifice your earthly joys for the sake of this eternity that is your ultimate quest of life. But this should be your contemplation. This alone can make you happy.
