Happiness is always progressive: the more you engage in a true way of living
Look for the permanencein your life. What is permanent? Your own truth, for one thing. Your reality is lodged inside and realising it is the authentic aim of all life. This is the immortal in you. Set this as your goal in life and move towards it and you will be happy. Love is also permanent but can only blossom in an atmosphere of truth. No condition gets more distorted by humanity than love. It does not reside in exclusive relationships or attachments, but true love is, in Sri Aurobindo’s words, “a self-existent power of the Divine”. It does not require any other justification for its presence. So, climb through the gradations to the love that exists beyond all bartering and exchange. You will find fulfilment in this process. Once we begin to love solelyfor the sake of loving, we enter the threshold of a sustained and sublime happiness. Love is a vibration that should be preserved and nurtured; it needs only to be lived. One becomes what one identifies with, so identify with love and you will reach the pinnacle of happiness.
