Happiness as Exteriority

I once said viajar é viver but today I see that viver é viajar.
Ver os outros de fora, como são, felizes, e assim sorrir. Esquecendo-nos de nós. A vida, ou a felicidade, não são a auto descoberta constante, tão insistida. A vida, ou a felicidade, são este constante e insistente olhar no espelho que são os outros.
Espelho partido que tento colar. La joie comme une espèce de colle.

I wish I could go to a portuguese church, listen to someone's prayers, and feel this beauty, this ... exteriority:


0:52 - Ohm
0:58 - Sitar (rhythm)
1:04 - Chorus (religious)
1:21 - Sitar (melody) <- happiness
3:12 - Flute (melody)

"May that Goddess - Bhagavathi - the blessed Saraswathi presiding deity of learning and remover of our lethargy, laziness and ignorance, protect us. She is pure and white like the jasmine, the full moon and the garland like formation of dewdrops. She is dressed in a spotless robe. She has in her hand, the auspicious instrument veena. She is seated on a white lotus. She is the one who is always respected by Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver, Shankara the annihilator and other Gods."
