You must love joy so much that even a slight departure towards stress or tension should activate an inner alarm. All these imaginations that take you away from your natural joy, the moment they arise you must start feeling restless; you must start feeling as if distanced from your own soul, as if you are getting divorced from your love. And then you must quickly return, you must say, “Ah! No, I don’t want this!”
We must love ourselves a lot; only then will we disallow our support to our own suffering. We support our suffering so much—how will anything else ever come to us?
