Undoubtedly, the vision of tomorrow thrives us while other times we can't deny the fact that there also resides an illusion inside that, only tomorrow will bring us happiness, and not today, drains us.
A thought in our mind always exists, that our next moment is going to be our happiest moment once 'this' happens to us, or once if we achieve 'that'. But, the truth is it doesn't work that way.
Happiness is never the next destination, be it your next job, or next place, or maybe next person, Nooo!! Absolutely not! It is like a mirage, from miles away you can see an oasis in the desert and the moment you reach out for it, it's not there! So is happiness, never present in that point where you have been looking for, but always lying right here, next to you.
Sometimes in the struggle, while other times in those small unnamed moments spent with people we love, but always here with us in this very moment we are living in, and if you can't feel it now, you are never gonna find it in the next..!
Like the innocent musk deer [KasturiMrig in India] enchanted by a scent, who keeps roaming madly, miles and miles to discover the original source of the fragrance. Unaware of the truth that the musk gland also called 'musk pod' is present inside them in a pouch in their naval, that emits the fragrance. [Kasturi in Indian Ayurveda]. They spend their entire life running after that wonderful fragrance, looking for its source and never gets to know the truth. What an irony!
Seeking for treasure of happiness in our spiritual journey, we are already missing it! We should smile for the 'now', the most precious moment is already happening in our life !
