Your mind knows that it and you should be happy, that is why it seeks happiness outside of itself in things, objects, people and circumstances. Your mind does not realize that hapiness comes from within. Only at the moment when you stop seeking happiness everything stands still and in the gap of no thinking and searching, your mind realizes bliss within through Enlightenment. It is at this stage your mind transmutes into utter bliss in union with your soul/Divine within. Read the words to your mind every day for your mind to be empowered for transmutation into the realm of bliss – nirvana. The mind fears transmutation it thinks it will lose its identity but you must encourage your mind that it will become one with ecstasy and bliss/nirvana its true state of being heaven within. There is no greater thing than for you and your mind to be in the state which is its true state of being.
