16/108 Gates of Dharma Illumination

The Sixteenth Gate

Joy is a gate of Dharma illumination; for [with it] we abandon all
unpleasant things.

Joy :
the emotion of great delight or happiness caused by something exceptionally good or satisfying

  In the struggle to be in joy,
  Perhaps I may at least
  Find peace.

  Joy warms the heart and opens our minds towards the world. Without joy, we remain isolated within our own sadness and despair.
  
  A mind full of joy
  Still has room
  For everything else
