స్వామి సచ్చిదానంద సూక్తి

Seek the Truth

Adversities are blessings in disguise. Who will enjoy the food well? The one who is really hungry. So make yourself hungry, thirsty for the Truth. If you yourself don’t do that, the nature, the world, will make you hungry. The purpose of the nature is to give you all the problems. That’s why the material world never makes you happy. It always creates problems. It’s telling you, ‘I can’t make you happy always. Temporarily yes, for a little while, you can be happy with your possessions, with your name, with your fame, with your wealth. But they cannot make you happy always.’ If you want permanent happiness, seek the Truth.
