CHAPTER

Letting Go for True Happiness

This chapter explores the idea of relinquishing control in order to find genuine happiness, using the metaphor of a tiller to convey how steering too tightly can lead to discontent. It emphasizes that true joy arises not from external achievements but from an inner acceptance and understanding of oneself. By examining the origins of desires and addressing the gap between fear of inadequacy and fulfillment, the chapter encourages listeners to pursue desires rooted in love and self-awareness rather than a sense of lack.
