There are not numerous beings; there is just one being, just being. The separate self, or ego, is an illusory entity that results from the mixing of infinite being with the qualities of experience. The peace and happiness for which we long resides in our own being. Whenever we feel a sense of lack, instead of seeking to fulfil it, we should investigate the one who feels that something is missing. Direct our attention towards ‘I,’ the one who feels incomplete and needs to be fulfilled. Have the courage and clarity to see that our happiness is still invested in the content of experience: Something will happen and I will be happy. In time, we realise that it is not we who travel back towards the happiness that is the nature of our being. It is that being that is attracting us, and we are responding to its gravitational pull.
