    The key to happiness is to know the truth about yourself - to understand you really are. Most people wrongly identify themselves with their feeling, thoughts, likes and dislikes. When they feel anger, they think, ‘I am angry. This is my anger.’ They consequently spend their life avoiding some kinds of feelings and pursuing others. They never realise that they are not their feelings, and that the relentless pursuit of particular feelings just traps them in misery.

    In our contemplative moments, if our silence is deep enough, we can identify our authentic ringtone pinging within audible range of the calamitous roar of all humanity. If we can hear our authentic voice penetrating the turmoil of a fretful night, rest assured that despite the traumatic turmoil, blood-curdling trauma, and incessant greed that frames these trying times, when death snatches us away from earthly fields the villagers will hear the salvo of that silvery bell knelling for thee.
