My time in Norway is at an end. I sit here in departures in the airport, sipping on coffee, watching people sit and walk and do their thing.
Humanity is just the same, everywhere I go.
Every class I teach, every talk I give, I try and ask people what the most important thing to them might be.
Everyone, everyone, says some version of happiness. Not a billion kroner, but peace and love and joy and contentment and peace and an end to struggle and suffering.
A man just walked past with his baby. The baby looked surprised, the man, happy and in love.
Maybe it’s that simple? Make a baby and carry it around?
I believe it’s even simpler. You just have to make sure your happiness is more important than getting stressed, or reacting, or thinking too much.
If it’s important, if you prioritise your peace, then happiness comes quickly.
It comes quickly because you find that happiness has its basis not in achieving anything, but in being content with what is.
Without being able to choose to be content, not even a baby’s soft cheek can help you.
If you understand this one thing then you know that you need nothing to make you happy, you just need to be attentive to this moment, letting go of any wishes or concerns that it was different somehow.
Imagine what it would be like if you had a foundation of happiness, constantly content?
It gives achieving your goals such a solid foundation because you no longer need to achieve, but you want to achieve, for the sport, for the joy, for the challenge. A huge difference.
If you want the tools to do this, I am teaching a fine course which will give you everything you need to:
- be able to let go of every single limiting mental programme you may have
- to be full of contentment
- focus at will
- move beyond all the bits and bobs that you’ve picked up which lead to suffering and struggle and self-sabotage in the first place.
Simple and easy.
15-17 April are the dates for this weekend course, and you are able to resit it, as many times as you like, for free. A excellent deal. Email me for more details and to book your place.Simple and easy.
Till then … keep the Peace,
- Arjuna
