Why do we do what we do? Isn't everything we do, ultimately, to
bring us happiness? Think about it. All our planning, all our
actions, all our manipulations, all our accumulations, are so that
we can just be happy. When we get what we want, really, how long
does it last? Is there a way that we can be happy all the time? The
drive to fulfill our desires, in practice, does not bring us
lasting happiness; so, what can we do?
There is one practice that is most essential in revealing the
bliss of the Self-and that is meditation. This is the fundamental
practice of mystics in all cultures that shows us the happiness
that lies just behind the mind and shines its joyous radiance when
the mind is at peace. If we will just spend some time every day in
this sublime equanimity, we will get everything.
The traditional path to the inner yoga of happiness, which is
taught in yoga philosophy (Advaita Vedanta), is simply the practice
of meditation. In this practice, we distill the inner caprice of
thought down to simple stillness. As we get longer stretches of
this stillness, we become acquainted with the fullness of our
essential being. In this fullness arises spontaneous joy,
contentment, and wisdom. This is the happiness that is always there
in every moment.
This book is a journal of clues along the way in the pursuit of
enduring inner happiness, independent of outer circumstances.
