The ignorant work for their own profit… the wise work for the welfare of the world… — Bhagavad Gita, 3:25 - Jay Shetty

When monks talk about happiness, they tell the story of the musk deer, a tale derived from a poem by Kabir, a fifteenth-century Indian mystic and poet. The musk deer picks up an irresistible scent in the forest and chases it, searching for the source, not realizing that the scent comes from its own pores. It spends its whole life wandering fruitlessly. In the same way we search for happiness, finding it elusive, when it can be found within us.

Sangha significa «comunidad» en sánscrito y alude a un refugio en el que las personas se ayudan y se motivan mutuamente.

To live intentionally, we must dig to the deepest why behind the want.
