Just A Thought ~ SEEK, AND YOU WON’T FIND!

"Happiness is the absence of the striving for happiness."

~ Chuang-tzu - Chinese Taoist sage ~

While one teacher said: "Seek, and you will find. Ask, and you will be given. Knock, and the door will be opened to you," here is Chuang-tzu saying: "Seek, and you will not find." Why is this? Because happiness ~ like peace-of-mind, Truth, Heaven, Nirvana ~ is not a thing to be sought and found, but must come to us, must find us. Indeed, our search for happiness is productive of unhappiness.
