Nature has provided for all. Yet, we hoard and hide resources. When we find our shelves filled with things, we buy some more. Our desire burns for more. We feel we will be satisfied if we get ten more dresses and yet we are so helplessly unhappy most of the time.

There are two kinds of happiness or two levels one may say. The first level is what we feel when we eat a delicious sweet or get a 'good show' from our boss. The second, the higher level of happiness, is permanent. It requires no experience. Whether you are eating bitter gourd or a Mysore Pak it is still and blissful. Such a state exists beneath our minds. It requires us to travel inwards. After sitting in silence for over nine continuous hours today, I felt that blissful state.

There was hardly anyone disturbing me today. There was very minimum noise, almost negligible I would say. The only noise I had to manage was the noise from inside my head. My mind was constantly producing thoughts. When I remain silent the mind starts to replay every thing that requires to be sorted out. When I approach it like a friend, it behaves like an obedient child that sits down to discuss its problems with me openly and freely. Mind is constantly producing noises. By nature my mind, I am sure it is the same for everyone of you, seeks to weed out unwanted thoughts. There were images that needed to be sorted out.

Then the desires needed to be cleansed. I clearly see a need to remove unfulfillable desires from my system. Such desires take away the strength in unwanted directions. What has to be kept as my cheerful duties and basic needs, I have decided to keep and work towards them. A planning session got started in my mind. It will be a few days before the journey gets strengthened. As each thought got addressed, slowly but surely a blissful state started surrounding me. What is this state? It is not my imagination. It exists inside me, inside you as well.

The bliss just wouldn't go. If this bliss can exist in me now, why can't it exist all the time? I resolve in my mind to do everything I can to preserve this bliss.

There is bliss inside. How I wish every human being experiences this!
