Mind Happiness

~ By Buddhadāsa Bhikkhu ~

There is little left of the minds of these people. Whatever they are able to feel, they conclude that "the mind is in the body," that is, the mind is at the whim of the body. Therefore, whenever, they experience complete physical pleasure, they believe that they have experienced the highest "happiness."
