The enlightened one does not experience elation from good fortune or sorrow from misfortune, but rather remains ever balanced amidst the constant ups and downs experienced in human life. As you become centered in the unchanging truth at the core of your being, you will find yourself less affected by the mundane activities and events around you, while enjoying a calm peace and serenity that can only come from the soul. Seek then to always take the time to still your restless thoughts and quiet the waves of emotion within you so that you might find the deep and lasting peace that is your true nature.
