The Secret of Being Happy : 19.





But no one has succeeded in seeing what the Truth is, because Truth cannot be seen.

We want to see Truth as we see a cow grazing in the meadow.

Truth cannot be seen like that because Truth is the seer of things, so how can we see it?

That which sees the objects of the world is the Truth behind things, so when we become one with the Supreme Seer of things, we realise the Truth of things.

Truth is not an object of perception, and therefore, it cannot be seen with the eyes.

Even if we travel millions of miles through space, we cannot see Truth because Truth is the seer and not the seen.



Yoga is very difficult to practise.

Very few have succeeded in its attempt.

It is very difficult because one cannot even understand what it is.

The more we think about it, the more crazy we become because it is not an ordinary way of thinking.

It is a supernormal way of thinking that is called yoga.

But we want to content ourselves with ordinary thinking, like a man on the street.
