Feel the satisfaction
You feel thirsty, so you drink water. A subtle satisfaction is attained. Forget the water, forget the thirst. Remain with the subtle satisfaction that you are feeling. Be filled with it; simply feel satisfied.
Remember, and analyze your own life. Have you ever taken account of happy moments, of contents, of satisfactions, of blissful glimpses? You have not taken any account, but you have taken every account of your pain, suffering, misery, and you go on accumulating. You are an accumulated hell, and this is your own choice. The similar attracts the similar, and this has been for lives and lives. You miss everything because of your negative approach.
This technique gives you a positive approach, a total reversal to the ordinary mind and its process. Wherever satisfaction is found, in whatever act, actualize this, feel it, become one with it. Your mind will turn positive, and the same world will look different
Everything is just a window, identified with pain a window of pain opens, identified with a satisfactory moment, a blissful moment, an ecstatic moment, you are opening blissful window. The existence is the same, but your windows are different.
From now remember this: whenever you feel something beautiful, satisfactory, something blissful – and there are many moments in a twenty-four-hour day – be aware of it. There are many moments when heaven is just near you, but you are so attached and involved with the hell that you go on missing it.
Look all around, and try to find the blissful; be filled with it. In that moment forget everything. Be filled with it, taste it, and allow it to happen to your whole being. Be one with it. The fragrance of it will follow you. It will go on resounding within you the whole day, and the resounding, the echoing feeling, will help you to be more positive.
This is a very delicate process, but very sweet also, and the more you proceed in it, the sweeter it becomes. You will be filled with a new sweetness and fragrance. Just look for the beautiful; forget the ugly. Then a moment comes when the ugly also becomes the beautiful. A moment comes when there is nothing which you can call unhappy, misery etc. Everything is beautified by a positive mind.
