Some call it Nirvana. Others call it Awakening, Enlightenment, Realization, Oneness, Satori, Yoga, Liberation. For me, it is nothing mystical or grandiose, but something utterly mundane and ordinary. Whenever I hurt, I would examine the thoughts that I am believing in. And when I realize that those thoughts are untrue, I am left with nothing but Peace and Joy.

The Burning House
A villager recently sold his house.
One day, while he was out on a walk with
his three sons, he saw in the distance that
his house was on fire.
He began to panic, but, then the First Son
reminded his father that they had already sold
the house. Whereupon, a great peace descended
upon him.
Suddenly, his Second son, said:
"Father, I have not collected the money
yet."
The father felt panicked again and started
to cry.
Then, the Third son said:
"Don't worry, I have already collected the
money this morning."
And the Father felt peaceful again.
