**Note: If the mind is not really peaceful now, it might not be a perfect moment to listen to this podcast, be aware of the emotions or reactions. Life is full of joy when one stops seeking pleasure; joy is an innocent pleasure. This talk is a meditation practice. What one needs to do is listen attentively, without getting stuck in words, examine the mind in silence, no agree or disagree, just look at the mind as it is. Doing so is already a meditation practice.

Transcript

When the mind stops seeking pleasure from thoughts,

It doesn't mean that there will be no pleasure for the life.

That's a general misunderstanding about that.

If one stops seeking pleasure,

The life is full of innocent pleasure.

The life is full of joy.

That's the secret of the life,

Isn't it?

We usually don't get what we are seeking,

But when we stop seeking,

Things unfold,

Things appear naturally.

A life without seeking is a life full of joy.

You can't imagine it,

Otherwise it becomes another thought,

Image.

The only thing you can do is to do it,

Meditate,

To live a life in that way,

To verify it for yourself.

The truth about life can't be imagined.

You can only live,

Live properly,

Live beautifully,

Live simply to come upon that truth.
