“Todo ser humano é movido pela busca da felicidade. Buscamos a felicidade em todos os lugares. Com certeza você já ouviu dizer que a felicidade se encontra dentro de si mesmo. Felicidade é o que somos. Felicidade é a a nossa realidade maior e quando você experimenta essa realidade, todos os desejos desaparecem e você experiencia silêncio. Você se percebe como o sol doador de vida. Todas as perguntas cessam e você tem acesso a respostas para perguntas que nem mesmo fez.”

Todas las preguntas cesan y tienes acceso a respuestas de preguntas que ni te has hecho.”

“Every human being is motivated by the search for happiness. We seek happiness everywhere. Certainly, we have already heard that happiness is something we find within. Happiness is who we are. Happiness is our greater reality and when we experiment with this reality, all our desires disappear and we experience silence. We see ourselves as the life giving sun. All questions cease and we have access to answers to unasked questions.”

I won’t die.
I won’t go anywhere.
I’ll be here.
But don’t ask me anything.
I won’t answer.
