“The problem with you is not that you have desires, but that you desire so little.
Why not desire it all? Why not want complete fulfillment, freedom, joy and abundance. All you want is to be happy. All your desires, whatever they may be, are longing for happiness. Basically, you wish yourself well. Desire by itself is not wrong. It is life itself, the urge to grow in knowledge and experience. To imagine that some little thing - food, sex, power, fame or a partner will make you happy is to deceive oneself. Only something as VAST and DEEP as your TRUE SELF can make you truly and lastingly happy.”
“From that place: embodying the TRUE SELF, attracting a life that truly suits and nourishes
you is effortless and easy. And that will add an extra layer of happiness. The cherry on top of
the cosmic cake.”
“Happiness is being free from everything that is making you unhappy. And the only thing that is making you unhappy is your identification with your false sense of Self – in other words being influenced and controlled by your conditioning, your ego-program, which is nothing more than a parasite in your psyche preventing you from being and realizing your TRUE SELF.”
Why am I obsessed with happiness?
Because I was possessed by the opposite for a very, very long time. Over three decades, to be precise, I lived a life predominantly marked by an underlying feeling of sadness, purposelessness, and a subtle, strange sense of waiting for something else to show up in my life.
Shortly after my 30th birthday, I began to seek enlightenment as a form of redemption from all the pain and suffering I was experiencing at that time.
I come from a very difficult and dysfunctional family system. Covert narcissism, overt narcissism, sexual and emotional abuse, and incest were topics I had to deal with as a child and teenager. I was surrounded by immature people with very dark and destructive ego programs in their psyche. I don’t need to mention the silent blame, shame, guilt, and manipulation that accompanied all of this.
I share this to provide some background on my serious and intense motivation to find true freedom and happiness in my life.
One thought never left me during my search for happiness: “When I am able to be permanently depressed and oppressed, then the opposite must be possible as well.” This logic stayed with me and was probably a reason I didn’t give up until I found what I was looking for.
Although I was successful in my search for enlightenment, what I encountered was more like a preview of what is possible when I am free from certain ideas and beliefs. The blissful state I experienced lasted only for a couple of months.
Only in the beginning of my 40s and after many, many other attempts to become free from trauma and finding happiness, during my North Node phase—which I refer to as Cosmic Calling on my page—did it become obvious, and step by step, it was revealed to me what I had to do in order to experience happiness on a daily basis.
So, let’s look at those three ingredients for the recipe that is called “True Happiness.”
