the fulfillment we are seeking is ours already in the bliss of our own being! Why should it take so long to make such a simple discovery? Why is it so difficult to realize that earthly pleasures are but reflections of our inner joy? Alas, in a house of mirrors one is less inclined to introspect. The reflections are simply too fascinating! If one gives thought to himself, it may be only for the sake of changing those reflections. With human life, similarly, the reflections of our inner joy perceived in outer fulfillments are simply too tantalizing! Many lifetimes pass, usually, before we realize that our fascination has been with mere reflections; that we have been living in an unreal world. - Swami Kriyananda
