Worldly people are lost in the darkness of material illusions, seeing temporary pleasures as fulfillment. But Saints detach from worldly allurements, attaching their minds to God and living in the eternal light of divine joy and divine joy. So it is a powerful reminder from Swamiji that real happiness lies not in accumulating temporary pleasures but in aligning our hearts and minds with the divine. Very Happy Diwali!
Swamiji story is excellent, but thought this life is short, within life every thing is long. We know time dilation and space contration.within one second, entire life fits , and within a hut , entire galaxy exists. Sometimes palliation is needed. To lead a life of miseries, we need breaks.
