“I must do something” always solves more problems than “Something must be done”.
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
Lao Tan said, “I was letting my mind wander in the beginning of things.”
“What does this mean?” asked Confucius. Lao Tan said, “It means to attain Perfect Beauty and wander in Perfect Happiness. He who attains Perfect Beauty and wanders in Perfect Happiness may be called the Perfect Man.”
The mind exists in a state of “not enough” and so is always greedy for more. When you are identified with mind, you get bored and restless very easily. Boredom means the mind is hungry for more stimulus…it is not satisfied.
Who realises all the happiness he desires? Everything is in the hands of God. Therefore, one should learn contentment.
