More Words Of Wisdom From The Way To Love: The Last Meditations of Anthony De Mello: Luke 14:26 Look around & see if you can find a single genuinely happy person - fearless, free from insecurities, anxieties, tensions, worries. You would be lucky if you found one in a hundred thousand. This should lead you to be suspicious of the programming & the beliefs that you & they hold in common. But you have also been programmed not to suspect, not to doubt, just to trust the assumptions that have been put into you by your tradition, your culture, your society, your religion. And if you are not happy, you have been trained to blame yourself, not your programming not your cultural & inherited ideas & beliefs. What makes it even worse is the fact that most people are so brainwashed that they do not even realize how unhappy they are. What are these false beliefs that block you from happiness? First: You cannot be happy without the things that you are attached to & that you consider so precious. False. There is a single moment in your life when you do not have everything that you need to be happy. The reason why you are unhappy is because you are focusing on what you not have rather than on what you have right now! Another belief: Happiness is in the future. Not true. Right here & now you are happy & you do not know it because your false beliefs & your distorted perceptions have got you caught up in fears, anxieties, attachments, conflicts, guilt & a host of games that you are programmed to play. If you would see through this, you would realize that you are happy...& do not know it...
