Real Happiness

Pure Bhakti

Q: How can we achieve real happiness? A: One can achieve freedom from fear and sorrow and can experience real happiness by remaining in the shelter of Śrīla Gurudeva’s lotus feet, and one can gain his association by serving him. One can receive the mercy of Śrīla Gurudeva very quickly by remaining engaged in serving him at every moment, through one’s body, mind and words. When Śrīla Gurudeva is pleased, the inclination to serve him increases more and more. This good fortune stands alone as the topmost good fortune and the only true reward. - Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Prabhupada
