Premanand Maharaj
There is one thing in human life for which he keeps running after it from birth till death. He tries hard to get it and ultimately remains dissatisfied. When Saint Premanand Maharaj of Vrindavan was asked about this matter, he directly enumerated three words, which are received only from God and cannot be found in this world. He explained happiness, peace and love and how these can be achieved.
Premanand Maharaj said that one should think about these three words: happiness, peace and love. Every person wants happiness in which there is no sorrow, every person wants peace in which there is no disturbance and every person wants unconditional love. These three things are available only from God. Can't be found in this world. Here, if you want happiness in money, then no matter how much money you accumulate, there is no happiness in it. If a room is filled with money and you are locked in it, you will shout and say take it out because there is no happiness in money. Money is liked because it provides material benefits. We love content because we get to eat, drink, see and hear from it. The senses love him. There is never love, happiness and peace in the pleasures of the senses.
There is no happiness in pleasures – Premanand
He said that everyone's search is for imperishable happiness, eternal peace and a beloved who only loves me and loves me for him. There is nothing like that here. Here's to loving yourself. This is not love. The language of love is happiness, in which my beloved is happy, even if one has to sacrifice one's life for it. Only God does that. All three things are searching for God. These are in God, that is why every living being is searching for God. We think that if we enjoy this, we will be happy, but someone is enjoying it and he is looking towards the third person and wherever the third person is looking, someone is also enjoying it, but he is also dissatisfied. This means that there is no happiness in pleasures.
'The pleasures seem like nectar, but the results are like poison'
Premanand Maharaj said that those offerings which seem like nectar result in poison. What is that pleasure which the householders have not enjoyed, but has it ever occurred to you that you do not want anything now? This will happen only when the feet of God are found, just as the boatman is washing the feet of God. “Ati Anand Umagi Anuraga, Charan Saroj Pakharan Laga.” Later, when God gives Janaki ji's ring, the boatman says that now Nath, he doesn't want anything. Today I have found what I was searching for since many lives.
