How Happiness Happens - Anthony de Mello - Wake up to life

Published on Jun 17, 2015
Come home to yourself. Observe yourself. That's why I said earlier
that self-observation is such a delightful and extraordinary thing.
After a while you don't have to make any effort, because, as illusions
begin to crumble, you begin to know things that cannot be described.
It's called happiness. Everything changes and you become addicted
to awareness.

There's the story of the disciple who went to the master and said,
"Could you give me a word of wisdom? Could you tell me something
that would guide me through my days"? It was the master's day of
silence, so he picked up a pad. It said, "Awareness". When the
disciple saw it, he said, "This is too brief. Can you expand on it a bit"?
So the master took back the pad and wrote, "Awareness, awareness,
awareness". The disciple said, "Yes, but what does it mean"? The
master took back the pad and wrote, "Awareness, awareness,
awareness means -- awareness".

That's what it is to watch yourself. No one can show you how to do it,
because he would be giving you a technique, he would be
programming you. But watch yourself. When you talk to someone,
are you aware of it or are you simply identifying with it? When you
got angry with somebody, were you aware that you were angry or
were you simply identifying with your anger? Later, when you had the
time, did you study your experience and attempt to understand it?

Where did it come from? What brought it on? I don't know of any
other way to awareness. You only change what you understand. What
you do not understand and are not aware of, you repress. You don't
change. But when you understand it, it changes. I am sometimes
asked, "Is this growing in awareness a gradual thing, or is it a
'whammo' kind of thing"? There are some lucky people who see this
in a flash. They just become aware. There are others who keep
growing into it, slowly, gradually, increasingly. They begin to see.
