BLISS IS OUR HOME.
So remember it: whenever you are more miserable that simply means that you have gone really far away from your home.
Come back!
People go on doing a thousand other things rather than coming back home.
If they are miserable they go on throwing the responsibility on others.
The wife is creating the trouble, the husband thinks that's why he is miserable.... or the society or the state.
There are a thousand and one excuses.
There is no excuse for your misery except the truth -- and the truth is that you are very far away from your being.
So whenever you are miserable go into meditation:
become silent, watch your misery, become a witness to it, don't become identified with it, and you will be surprised that the more you watch, the less it is.
And when you are perfectly watchful it simply disappears, as if it had never been there.
Not even a trace is left behind.
And suddenly you will find that the same energy that was becoming your misery has become a showering of bliss.
You have come home.
We have to constantly come back home because our habit is to go astray.
For lives together we have been going astray.
For lives together we have been going astray. It has become habitual.
Sannyas means a determined effort to remember that "Whenever I am miserable I have to go back to my sources, to my roots."
Slowly slowly you become aware of the whole process of misery and then you go away from your home less and less.
More and more you become centred and more and more bliss is there.
When one is one hundred per cent centred and awareness is total, bliss is infinite, you have arrived home.
Call it paradise, nirvana, moksha, liberation, but the most beautiful word is "home."
Sannyas is the return journey home.”

If we are living in misery we are living somewhere else, not in our own home.
We are not living in our nature. We are living in something accidental.
The moment you start living in your essential being, life is bliss.
If you go astray... the farther away you go from you essential core, the more miserable you become.

Misery is really the measurement of how distant you are from home.

There are a thousand and one excuses.
One can always find them, they are always available.
If you can't find them you can invent them.
But no excuse is going to help, it simply prolongs your misery more.
