Everyone has the ability to experience pure joy, pure happiness, pure peace, and to access that joy at will. Then why doesn’t everyone experience joy? For a few reasons. Primarily, most people’s minds are constantly agitated. When the mind is filled with thoughts, disturbances, worries, fears, doubts, desires, dislikes, etc., the individual gets stuck in their thoughts, in the mind.
