A Journey of Self Discovery #4: Full But Still Empty - Part 2

by Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa

The body craves material satisfaction. More, more, more, and more. We’re never satisfied. We never have enough. We always want more. We are trying to satisfy an inner emptiness, an inner craving. We’re trying to satisfy it with endless material consumption.

But this is not the answer—this is to accept that we are the body, but it does not lead to happiness.” This simple but sublime truth was put forward by Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda, a world-renowned yoga spiritual master, during a lecture on happiness.
