In the journey called life what does happiness mean …?
The feeling of wellbeing, the intangible feeling of being in the euphoric ecstasy and illusion which gives a sense of being good and comfort…..
In the globalized rat race of competence do we consistently live in happiness …or it is a barren experience only good to read and write on papers….
In an afternoon, a call from one of my friends created a sense of happiness an inexplicable emotional state of wellbeing ……walking on the grass bare foot ….talking to the pet dog… listening to good music ….a good hot water bath…. cycling….having a dinner with family on the terrace ….seeing a new born baby…kisses of Grandma….a beach side meditation…..reading a favorite author…..watching the rising sun….a hug from the dad….game with friends….watering the garden…a way long walk…..innumerable such smaller things which brings happiness….a sense of being good…
This intangible asset happiness is the desire of the whole universe …
When the very basic necessities are lacking, the mind is longing for it so that it can have happiness…it is true that the basic necessities will bring happiness…but that happiness cease to end the moment the needs are met……
Now the mind starts to aspire for the luxuries of life, attempting to be happy ….even the luxuries fail to give the enduring happiness…..
When luxuries add up, things will be of more artificial…in the peak of luxury the nature dies….
The lives filled with luxuries of life, still longs for the happiness….
The mind starts to run behind the material objects, the happiness is only for the moment …the next moment the happiness may flew away….then the mind will start to run behind a next bigger object, even this attempt will not going to ensure an enduring happiness….
The bird of happiness is not belongs to the cages…but heavens….obviously
they have not contained in the cages of material objects….but in the natural minds.
The perspective of value system will help us to understand few truths about happiness and being happy….
The values can be classified as …The Mean Values and The End Values…..
The Mean Values are material things like car, house, money, wealth, .etc
The End Values are immaterial things like Happiness, Joy, Smile, Hope, Confidence…so on....
The wise way to live in consistent happiness is balancing equally both the Mean Values and the End Values….
As the End Values are intangible in nature and free from tangible Mean Values…..
The good news is that one can experience the end values like happiness and joy with out the influence of any mean values by focusing the mind in the paths of godly meditation and by sticking to the truth….
Let us start smile at each other ….and spread the happiness all over again and again….
