Upanishad - Happiness is in the distance, in waiting, in hope

Sept 27 eve

Went for a walk in the park. Singing straight for 3 cycles of walk. Just singing love songs to the trees and grass. Love them and feel their love for me too. Quite effortless.

Came back and did my Shoonya. Went in deep. Followed by lovely Samyama. Didn't want to wake up. Towards the end I felt a loving feeling for Z. I said he was an asshole and he is in my past but doesn't mean my love was false. I did love him and he will leave a part in me cos he was my first. But I can now think of him without feeling anger. That's good.
Guess that the Friendliness card.

Adhyatma Upanishad - Osho
One who is conscious while awake slowly learns how to sleep consciously and alas dies consciously.
But first one has to know this in  the consciousness hidden within one's own body. Then the outer pot breaks and the inner sky merges with the vast sky.

Soul
Deep. But is beyond me.

Adhyatma Upanishad - Osho
All happiness is in the distance, in the future, but as u come closer, it disappears. As long as happiness is not urs, it is happiness; as it becomes urs, it turns into unhappiness.

Happiness is in the distance. Happiness is not in things, it is in the distance, it is in ur hope, it is in ur waiting.
When happiness comes - or as it comes closer - it begins to disappear, and by the time it is in ur hands, it becomes unhappiness.
Neither happiness and unhappiness is inherent in anything. The greater the distance, the greater appears the happiness; as it comes closer, the greater is the unhappiness. This is a very complex trap.

Something here. I knew hope of unknown give some happiness. And the reality may not be so bright. But this darshan by Osho is something else.
Yesterday night I said no more challenges. I prefer to be alone. No more going for hope to have dream partner. The price not worth it. No more asking for anything. I just want to be. Whatever happens, happens. No more striving.
Today got this. Not sure yet.

Adhyatma Upanishad - Osho
Whatever we bring close, unhappiness begins to breed out of it. The more we ask for happiness.....

One, u will not get it, because nothing is received through asking; and when u do not get it, u will be frustrated.
Second, even if u did get it, u will encounter failure, emptiness would surround you because all ur efforts had been futile, nothing had really been achieved; u rushed around, laboured hard, glittering from a distance .... Any music sounds celestial from a distance.

Soul
Wow.
