Happiness is the way

in my opinion Happiness is a cause not an effect. the illustration that comes from the book named City Dharma is quite correct. the same illustration comes from the book named power of now. the same illustration can be sited that you need not seek the happiness, you can be happy right now. seeking comes into future, if we see the power of now. we realise that we have contradction within ourself. there is ego/past within us that seeks its survival in past and future. we become lost in thoughts and believe our stories to be true. we make any identity of ourselves by what happened in past, negative or positive. by doing this we do not respect the love of nature around us. we do not realise the beauty of nature embeeded in plants, trees, sky, animals. and we see other human beings who are also lost in mind. so we try to figure out whose pain is more – mine or theirs? we ask for happiness outside, in our position, bank balances, looks, opinions. and we get frustrated many times by indulging in self seeking behaviors. first thing to accpet the pain as part of you. accpet what is happiness or unhappiness. accpetance and surreder to life crate miracles.

Happiness

this is my first post and i write it happily.

the modern lifestyle is said to be of lot of stress/ anxiety. it is not to be so. the   lifestyle issue is an individual choice.

the meditation is misjudged as only the Monk’s Daily Routine. and any spiritual aspect in individual’s life is seen as renunciation from the world. it is scientifically proved that meditation has lot of positive effect in mind and body healing. the new generation is attracted towards well being phenomena. relaxation is required in the daily life and deep breathing and meditation helps our lives to be in harmony with the natural laws.

the early morning meditation does not mean that you are prohibited to join the late night disco.

there are no rules in spirituals terms. an individual choice reflects the direction of his life. modern lifestyle has its own pros and cons. happiness is not subjected only to the money accumulation. an individual whether he is urban or rural has choice to be happy and it does not require the ego gratification.

though we want to pursue our dreams and that is very fine choice, we shall not attached to the outcomes.

the unhappiness arises when we are subject to the approval of others, and create the fear in our lives. there is a very good book named ” your erroneous Zones” by Dr.W Wayne Dyer, that shows how be live a balanced and fulfilling life.

It is fact that there is a lot of pressure in our lives due to the misunderstanding that our position and financial status is factor of who we are. if it is to be so that Mahatma Gandhi could not be the Father of Nation India. We want money to buy happiness and usually get unhappiness. and we think that more or this and that will give us more happiness.

we better choose happiness rather than money, the happiness which comes from values definition, and that does not depend on outward things.

it is obvious to quote Dan Millman – author of “Peaceful warrior” here

“Act happy, feel happy, be happy, without a reason in the world. Then you can love, and do what you will.”

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
