Happiness or joy
is the inner strength
that one derives from his own self
to remain untouched by the illusion of the outer pain.
But man continuously
seeks joy from the external sources
and deprives his own self from emitting
and radiating its true nature.
Self deprivation gives one
the false notion of one's own limitations,
and in this ignorance, he gives up on his own will power
and attempts to buy the pleasures of the mind,
in order to replace the deficiency that he,
himself, created within his own self.
The pleasures that the mind
seeks are limitless and unstable in nature.
In one's foolish attempt to please the mind,
one pitifully becomes it. Yes!
One loses his own contact with
the powers of the self, and instead,
seeks the fame and glory of the worldly power.
In this mishap,
he loses the sense of all truth,
becomes a part of the transient world,
in which, time and fate play the game of pain and pleasure.
The power of God
that he came with is lost,
temporarily, in his seeking
the fulfillment in the biggest of all illusions - Desire!
Desire is the blindfold
upon man's inner eye
that forces the night upon him
even in the midst of a promising enlightening day!
divinely sent
