True happiness!

790. Om paraparayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is both para and apara

I love reading quotes by the Dalai Lama as much as I wish to follow Amma. And given below is one of the nicest and most important sayings by His Holiness:

“I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion and elimination of ignorance, selfishness and greed.”

May we learn to eradicate this ignorance and achieve true happiness!

Om Amriteswariye namah!
