What is the secret of Happiness?

Everyone is in pursuit of simple ways to attain happiness. Whether it's the poorest or the wealthiest individuals, they all strive for happiness. Why is the concept of happiness so perplexing? We immerse ourselves in books about happiness, quote happiness, attend various programs, and more. However, after a few days, we realize that we still haven't achieved true happiness. Something crucial is still missing. So, what is the secret to finding happiness?

Oftentimes, we associate happiness with money. If money is the key, then consider asking millionaires if they are genuinely happy. Do you observe them being happy all the time? The answer is most likely no! Nonetheless, it remains the one thing that everyone seeks.

In order to be happy, it is essential to first comprehend your own personal definition of happiness.

Is this the Defination of Happiness?

Secret 1: Where is Happiness?

I came across this story about happiness. It really is a simple story but tells a lot why we miss the happiness. This made me also think and I realized I am also one who has been following the same path.

The journey of happiness is something like this

If you ask a school child, "Are you happy"

The boy answers, "I will be happy when I will be in the higher secondary,"

When he is in higher secondary he says “I will be happy if I pass out and join a college"

After passing out of college if you ask him "Are you happy now?"

The answer would be “I will be happy if I get a high paid job & I settle in my life"

After getting a good job if you ask "Are you happy now?"

He would still say “I will be happy only if I get a good, beautiful life partner”

“I could be happy if I have a baby”

“only if the baby grows up and gets good education”

“only if the baby gets job”.........

It’s never ending journey.

And like this only we keep on postponing happiness to the future. Where we don't have any control or you can't be in future.

Secret 2: Happiness is Here Now

Happiness is always present in the current moment. The only thing we need to do is realize this. Instead, we often focus on the things we lack in the present.

Take a moment to imagine what you would do if you were happy. Reflect on it. Initially, you might associate happiness with wealth, fame, and recognition. However, consider the challenges and problems that would come with having all the money, fame, and success.

Would you be able to fully enjoy what you have? Would you not constantly worry about maintaining that status, earning more money, and becoming even more popular? These thoughts would occupy your mind, even when you have a lot of money, as your mind tends to be concerned about the future.

This happens because you haven't trained your mind to appreciate what you currently have or what is happening around you. It is these things that can bring you happiness – knowing that happiness is already with you, right now. YOU WILL BE HAPPY. YOU ARE HAPPY NOW....

Do not postpone happiness. It is not something that exists in the future; it lies in living your present moments with happiness.

Secret 4: Cherish Unforgettable Moments

Here's another amusing aspect of happiness: we often come to realize that we were happy at some point in the past.

When you reach the age of 80 and someone asks if you are happy, you might find yourself responding with phrases like, "We used to be happy when we were young," "those were the days," or "the good old days." Throughout our lives, we tend to seek happiness first in the future and then reminisce about it in the past.

However, happiness has always been present within us, even though we may not have had the ability to recognize it. Happiness resides in the present moment—it is here and now! We don't require anything external to experience happiness; we simply need to embrace our true nature, which is unencumbered by worldly concerns. Our true nature is one of joy, enthusiasm, and love!

Secret 5: How to be Happy?

If we examine our lives, we find that the present moment is always with us. It is not the past that lingers nor the future that we can anticipate. Rather, it is our thoughts, experiences, and mindset that hinder our ability to experience happiness.

So, how can we truly live in the present moment?

Begin by finding a peaceful place where you can be undisturbed. Reflect upon the instances when you felt genuine happiness. Identify the activities or aspects that brought you joy. Continuously engage in those activities that bring you happiness, while consciously avoiding those that bring sadness. The key is to cultivate happiness and remain present.

In the video, it is demonstrated that happiness arises from both favorable and unfavorable situations. By embracing and celebrating every circumstance, recognizing that everything in this world is subject to change, you can find true happiness.

Once you understand what has brought you happiness, the solution is simple—continue to repeat those actions and experiences.
