Even if we have everything, if there is no mental peace, we cannot lead a happy life.
An artist paints with focus; the painting becomes complete only through ekagrata (one-pointedness). Similarly, whatever is our goal, we need focus on that to make it complete.
The mind always has expectations. In order to experience pure consciousness, this nature of the mind must disappear.
What is to be done in order to obtain peace? We should live our life understanding and discriminating between the eternal and the non-eternal.
The agony caused by the longing to see God is not sorrow; it is bliss. The state that we attain by calling and crying to God is equal to the bliss that the yogi experiences in samadhi.
