"There is a very simple secret to being happy.
Just let go of your demand on this moment.

Any time you have a demand on the moment to give you something
or remove something,
there is suffering.

Your demands keep you chained to the dream state of the conditioned mind.
The problem is that when there is a demand,
you completely miss what is now.

Letting go applies to the highest sacred demand,
and even for the demand for Love.
If you demand in some subtle way to be loved,
even if you get love,it is never enough.
In the next moment,the demand reasserts itself,
and you need to be loved again.

But as soon as you let go,
there is knowing in that instant
that there is love here already.

The mind is afraid to let go of its demand
because the mind thinks that if it lets go,
it is not going to get what it wants—-
as if demanding works.

This is not the way things work.
Stop chasing peace and stop chasing love,
and your heart becomes full.
Stop trying to be a better person,
and you are a better person.
Stop trying to forgive.
and forgiveness happens.
Stop and be still.
