A Mirage Of Happiness

A Mirage Of Happiness
#

People are Chasing Happiness And arguing measuring Happiness Index is better than GDP Index I thought to talk with you about my journey.

In a desert, I walk and run In the hope of water The desire for water is real in me But not real water there How to drink that nectar of this planet, Which is nowhere here in this desert?

Happiness is that kind of mirage land For which human have a real desire To drink but nowhere there is the world Except it is perceived at the far distance or At the backyard of some other person’s house or At the trough in the desert.

But when you reach there after your long journey Then you realize it is not here too We keep inspiring fellow travelers To walk a little more, to work a little more You will get it when you reach there or achieve which you value in life.

We are inspiring people to achieve that Which we ourselves never got outside Our children work hard to achieve that Which we don’t have A child can work hard to follow elders You can motivate a child to work hard for a whole day And finally, give him a chocolate so that he can feel good. But a child in me has understood the trick of people around me You want to keep me busy the whole day for a bar of chocolate that too when I am not hungry.

I am a child of the goddess of death I want to play just because I am out from my mother’s lap and Not because I want to become happy by taking your tempting chocolate But because I love to play.

This world is a mirage of happiness There is no happiness there It is not an object to get anywhere but It is my experience during play I don’t get happiness but I am happiness A mad run for that which I am and I am established in that.

O Chaitnya, know thyself that in essence, you are nothing but Ananda But without knowing your essence you are running like a dear is running for a musk.

Hari Om Tat Sat Yours Truly Hari

Until Next Time Stay Blessed #World_Happy_Index #Happyiness #wisdomin_awareness #Self_Realization
