Inward thinking
Inward thinking
So how do we practice inward thinking? By spending time with ourselves, contemplating. By questioning our thoughts. What are they? Why are they? Where do they come from? Through a gradual practice of watching our thoughts, determining, understanding their source and sifting, we will be able to deal with a large part of our insecurities, from which springs forth the quest for happiness outside.
Each one of us, consciously or unconsciously, is seeking permanent happiness in this changing, ephemeral world. What we need to do is to look for the fountainhead of happiness within us because nothing we seek in the world will be permanent. That infinite happiness that we chase outside lies within us. The source of happiness, the Self, is within, enveloped by our desires and our self-imposed limitations and can be rediscovered only by undertaking the journey to the Beyond that is within.
