The Way You Are Living Creates Your Disease

Happiness is man's nature. You need not worry about happiness at all, it is already there. It is in your heart — you just have to stop being unhappy, you have to stop the mechanism functioning that creates unhappiness. 

But nobody seems to be ready for that. People say, "I want happiness." It is as if you go on saying, 'I want health' - and you go on clinging to your disease, and you don't allow the disease to go. If the doctor prescribes the medicine, you throw away the medicine; you never follow any prescription. You never go for a morning walk, you never go swimming, you never go running on the beach, you never do any exercise. You go on eating obsessively, you go on destroying your health — and again and again you go on asking where to find health. But you don't change the mechanism that creates unhealth. 

Health is not something to be attained somewhere, it is not an object. 

Health is a totally different way of living. The way you are living creates disease, the way you are living creates misery.
