Give up the conflicts! Human life is more and more complicated day by day.

Happiness is an internal feeling, not derived from external conditions. Release all mental conflicts concerning religions, cultures, or nations. Place yourself in a state where you declare, "now I am happy." Proceed slowly and gently, like a wave. You are a wave of the cosmic Self, having arisen from and destined to merge back into the ocean. Daily life is saṃsāra, filled with unchangeable and unacceptable experiences. Human life grows increasingly complicated and threatened, despite greater development and intellect. This occurs because humanity has gone too far, losing the feeling of nature. Within each day, take minutes to establish happiness or peace within yourself. We cannot do good for everyone; actions will always receive both praise and criticism.

"You are those divine waves."

"Day by day, human life is getting complicated."

Can we feel happiness? Regardless of what your life contains or how many problems you have, can you, for a few minutes, feel what you would like to feel? That feeling will not come from outside. From outside will only come heat or cold. Therefore, give up all the conflicts you hold in your mind about religions, about cultures, about nations, about anything. Place yourself in such a state of mind that, yes, now I am happy. Do not be hurried. Take your time. We will proceed very slowly, like waves on the water. Like gentle waves on the ocean, fluttering softly. Similarly, you are a wave of the cosmic Self. You came from the ocean; waves arise from the ocean and will again merge into the ocean. So you are those divine waves. For twenty-four hours we are active. Many things happen within twenty-four hours. Many different thoughts come and go. We collect many experiences. There are many things we cannot change, many things we cannot accept, and many things we cannot understand. This is called saṃsāra, the world. Day by day, human life is getting complicated. Day by day, not only humans but the entire planet is threatened. Day by day, human society is threatened. Humans are more developed; humans have better intellect, and yet the most fearful, threatened, and discomforted is the human. Why does this happen to humans? Because we humans went too far. We lost the feeling of nature. Therefore, within these twenty-four hours which we have divided as night and day, take some minutes for thyself to establish within thyself that happiness or peace. We cannot do good for everyone. Whatever we do, there will be some who will say it is very good, and there will be many who will will say it is stupid, it is not good.
