Happiness is a state of mind.
If a question is asked, there is also an answer. We spend our whole lives looking for happiness in material things, thinking that a big bank balance, a luxurious house, and a beautiful wife are the key to happiness… but we still don’t find that happiness. You are not happy. Because we are never satisfied with anything we have. You may feel satisfied for a while when you get something that you want. But if we think about the long term, we keep looking for something, keep looking. Not only this, but we reach the point of wanting to get it by force.
The main thing here is that the happiness we keep searching for is the same happiness that eludes us. He is moving away from us. It seems to slip away, out of our reach and the moment we get a little bit of happiness, do we try to hold on to the life we love? Because, somewhere, we would have known that happiness is hard to come by and can disappear anytime. Now, let’s say I get my lost ring back and I’ll be happy. So I think I am happy. But, my subconscious mind knows that this happiness will soon fade away. So what do I do? I try to hold it as tightly as possible because I’m afraid it will slip! Now notice… if I hold on to something and at the same time, I fear losing it, then where is the joy of that thing? It’s just insecurity.
Tell me, can vulnerability create happiness? Can I ever really be happy when the fear of theft is insecurity? This is not true happiness. So, I continue my search. And keeps going from one thing to another. Not just because you know it, but why shouldn’t we express our joy in the small pleasures of everyday life?? They are the most wonderful things the world can offer us. Apart from these small pleasures in life, we must remember that the happiness we seek is never found outside ourselves, in material things.!!! Try to find happiness within yourself rather than outside the world. Of course, make yourself right not weak. A weak man cannot be happy.
We are constantly busying ourselves with seeking more and more happiness, collecting many things, and trying to become something. So now the important word is ‘what’ do we try to be? I think, but this is not just my opinion, because Srimad Bhagavad Gita sheds light on this. And it is a constant search for ‘joy’. Happiness is what all living beings seek. We search for happiness in our way, in our throughout our life. We are searching, we are searching for our idea of happiness. Young children have their idea of happiness such as toys, ice cream, and watching cartoons. As we, as humans, grow up, so do our ideas of happiness. These new ideas take place. And as we move forward through an active life, another new set of ideas of happiness is created. These ideas can be further expanded If I buy an insurance policy in which year will the policy benefit me? How much will be in my bank account then? How can I continue my life and live up to my current standard of living? As we can see here, this pursuit of happiness encourages us to live life… motivates us!! But the question here is, do we finally find that happiness? The answer is simple. Someone says, ‘Yes, I found it.’ So someone says, ‘Yes, I found myself in something else.’ But after that happiness is found, why do we still search for that happiness, why do we continue to search for it? Have you ever thought like this??
