Our natural state is happiness.

But happiness not as expressed as "I am happy" — it is wordless and innate to our being.
It is present at all times.

Truth is the very essence; the very essence is pure being;
Pure being, by nature, never ceases to be.

The belief and feeling: "I am unhappy" is all that appears to cover happiness
and is all that needs to be seen through; when seen through the very essence is found...
And here thoughts and words do not apply; still happiness is, and it is known to be "I".

Happiness is not an object and is therefore not experienced or known by a subject.
It is objectless and self-knowing — our very being prior to the thought "I am".
