Joys of the Spirit and Joys of the Emotions |
|
| |
How are joys of the spirit different from joys of the emotions?The emotions are rooted in our bodies.
The spirit is rooted in our minds, in our true nature.Joys rooted in our emotions or physical bodies demand recognition by others.
Desire for ownership and desire for honor.
Joys from these things grow only when others recognize us.
 The joys of the spirit need no recognition.
The peace of mind and delight that come from the heart grow greater the less they are known.
The joys of the emotions disappear on comparison with others.
The joys of the spirit are eternal joys of the heart never to be compared.
We can be genuinely happy when we live in the joys of the spirit. |
