Prayers for Calm author Becca Anderson has a few wise words on the power of letting yourself sink into the joys of life and allowing yourself to feel happiness.
Flowers, sesame-seed, bowls of fresh water, a tuft of kusha grass,
all this altar paraphernalia is not needed
by someone who takes the teacher’s words in
and honestly lives them.
Full of longing in meditation,
one sinks into a joy that is free of any impulse to act,
and will never enter a human birth again.
—Lalia, 1381
