Bhagavan Nityananda’s Teachings
Swami Muktananda, Bhagawan Nityananda: His Life and Mission (Ganeshpuri, India: Gurudev Siddha Peeth, 1981), p.29.
After receiving this teaching that “All happiness you desire is within you,” I realized that knowing this itself makes me happy. Also, I understood that I must direct my searching and focus inward.

As I read this teaching from Bade Baba, I was drawn to its wisdom and to the artwork—the leaf with the green and red colors.
I feel the red at the bottom is my root. Just as a plant flowers and thrives as we nurture the root, so do we thrive. I intend to constantly nurture my heart till only love flows. I feel that, in this way, I will realize true happiness.

As I read these beautiful words, immediately they permeated my whole being. I was unexpectedly drawn deep inside into complete silence and stillness, flooded with a feeling of pure and innocent happiness and absolute contentment. These simple words contain for me a world of blessings and grace.

Just reading this teaching from Bhagavan Nityananda brought me an incredible sense of calmness and contentment. As I kept repeating his words and contemplating their meaning and the wisdom within them, I felt myself coming back to my center, resting more deeply in my heart.
To help me stay steady throughout the day, especially when I catch myself feeling off-kilter, I am inspired to ask, “What happiness am I seeking outside that is already within me?”

This learning to acknowledge my true Self and remain aware of my own inner sun, I owe to the grace of Shri Guru. In this teaching, Bhagavan Nityananda reminds me that the recognition of my inner sun is where my true happiness lies.
