Feeling the Peace Not Dependent on Circumstances

How can I feel the sufficiency and peace that isn’t dependent on outer circumstances? I struggle to access this experience in meditation. Rupert says: ‘When you’re just resting in being, resting as being, do you feel any lack there? No. That’s it. Happiness is literally what being tastes like. It’s not always experienced, because it’s obscured by the seeking mind. Your very search is the denial of the happiness that is already present. You can’t be happy and seek happiness at the same time. When the activity of seeking subsides, happiness, which is the nature of being, then shines.’
