Optimism
More helpful than its opposite.
There is nothing spiritually wrong in being glad and cheerful, on the contrary it is the right thing.
Sri Aurobindo, Letters on Yoga - IV: Cheerfulness and Happiness
Cheerfulness is the salt of sadhana. It is a thousand times better than gloominess.
Sri Aurobindo, Letters on Yoga - IV: Cheerfulness and Happiness
A hidden Bliss is at the root of things.
A mute Delight regards Time's countless works: To house God's joy in things Space gave wide room, To house God's joy in self our souls were born.
This universe an old enchantment guards; Its objects are carved cups of World-Delight Whose charmed wine is some deep soul's rapture-drink: The All-Wonderful has packed heaven with his dreams, He has made blank ancient Space his marvel-house; He spilled his spirit into Matter's signs: His fires of grandeur burn in the great sun, He glides through heaven shimmering in the moon; He is beauty carolling in the fields of sound; He chants the stanzas of the odes of Wind; He is silence watching in the stars at night; He wakes at dawn and calls from every bough, Lies stunned in the stone and dreams in flower and tree.
