Premanand Maharaj Ji
Does happiness really come from enjoying things, or from where the mind is fixed?
Pleasure gives no joy when the mind is elsewhere
Pleasure gives no joy when the mind is elsewhere, as with a man who will be hanged tomorrow. If joy is in Paramatma, a smile remains in any situation.
Suppose someone is told, 'Today enjoy all the pleasures of the world you wish; tomorrow at 12 you will be hanged.' Tell me, which pleasure can give him joy?
