HAPPINESS IS THE HIGHEST GOOD FOR ALL!

HAPPINESS IS THE HIGHEST GOOD FOR ALL!

Dear Friends!

Happiness Is The Highest Good

Because our true original nature of the soul, that we truly are; is always to be happy, but due to our misuse of God-given free will, we sometimes & often undergo unwanted sufferings in life like temporary clouds covering the ever sunshine thus imposing misery upon our eternal happy nature of the soul; however sooner or later we come back to our happy natural condition. Like the truth of the sun shining above the clouds all the time; so is our true highest good of happiness always remaining happy above all our cloud-like circumstantial troubles in life! All kinds of so called problems/troubles/sufferings of life, if taken with positive attitude, are in fact our teachers or healers to teach/lead us toward our better & happier future life. So, yes, happiness is possible in all situations and we should live happy always and that is our true life in the highest good.

Happiness Depends On Our Karma

Happiness is the byproduct of our Karma, past & present. Before the misuse of our free will, our original nature was ever happiness, but once we created our own bad karma due to our free will, we started reaping the results of our karma in terms of sufferings in degraded births as human beings or worst in the births of animals, birds, fishes, insects and even as trees & plants L At least being born as a human being means we are having the golden opportunity of regaining our lost heavenly life in this very life itself. To regain our heavenly life we gotta regain our Godly / spiritual qualities like LOVE, PURITY, CLEANLINESS, DUTY, SINCERITY, EMPATHY, NON-INJURY, EQUITY, UNITY, PHILANTHROPHY, JUSTICE, HAPPINESS etc.

Happiness Is Not In The Mind Alone

You might have heard some people claiming that happiness is just in our mind to make ourselves happy or unhappy but the truth is that our mind, though can be helpful to maintain our happiness to some extent, is not the sole origin of our happiness; but our karma is. Our circumstances and economic situations do contribute to our level of happiness and our karma good or bad create our own such circumstances or economic situations for good or bad, wherein we are today eventually. When we sit near the fire-place we feel warm for sure no matter what your mind might think like you are in the snows or drenched in the rain outside; that means our imaginative mind cannot fully change our realities of karma. However our positive mind, when translated into positive actions, can change our destiny toward the positive & progressive direction and the same is true for our bad karma giving us negative & degraded destiny as well thus determining our happy or unhappy life.

True Happiness Is The Happiness For All

We are all created by the same Creator whom we call God. Being originated from the same source of God, we do inherit the original Godly qualities but due to our bad karmas we became different beings with less & less Godly qualities and more & more of negative qualities. However, in essence at the soul level, all living beings are still the same; all connected to God spiritually and so we are all parts of the whole creation and so in one sense we are all one body and so our true overall happiness happens when all beings that constitute the whole body are all happy and so when we talk about our own true happiness we gotta include the happiness of all beings around us; that means we gotta do karma that makes us happy as well as all others. When we do karma for the happiness of all, we do get our true happiness.

Happiness Brings Success

Many people assumedly think that success brings them happiness and their concept of success is in most cases, wrongly defined just on the material terms only like earning lots of money, having big business, big house, big car, big property etc and thus in their pursuit for success they started using hook & crook methods just to achieve their material goals of success and ignoring the inner voice of the soul to preserve their inherited Godly qualities and thus after achieving their material goals they end up in a miserable meaningless life, never enjoying true happiness and at the end when they die they can’t take any of their hard earned material things with them and thus die a poor person! On the other hand if you do things that make you happy means you are living your true purposeful life and when you are happy doing things means you are enhancing your Godly qualities and thus you enjoy life on the way and also arrive the happy goal of life. To a happy worker, money & material things come without too much efforts and you are contented and live a happy life throughout and when you die you are peaceful & happy as you earned more eternal spiritual assets of Godly qualities that shall go with you when you die other than the temporary material assets that you can’t carry and thus die a rich person!

Think! What kind of lifestyle is better? However if you are truly spiritual and super-rich as well, that is still better J

Happiness Brings Peace & Prosperity

If you check the top happy countries of the world, you will find that crime rates in those countries are relatively lower as well. In fact, all kinds of problems & crimes in the family, society are originated from the unhappy people. Happy & contented people will neither commit crimes nor indulge in any anti-social activities; only unhappy people do. So, to reduce crime and bring peace, we gotta look into this happiness factor, how to make people happy, I mean true happiness and yes true happiness is mostly long term happiness. Since people cannot be happy primarily without their basic needs of food, cloth & shelter; we gotta make sure that nobody is deprived of these three primary needs and secondly people need healthcare, education & means to earn money and so we gotta find out ways to fulfill these three secondary needs as well. At the first place, before bringing children to this world, parents should be ready to provide all these primary & secondary needs of their children and if they are not ready for them then they should not give birth to children who end up as beggars or anti-socials thus disturbing the society. We gotta educate people about the advantages of single or small family life to check unwanted overpopulation; we gotta educate people about the worthless life in slums and meaningless life of the beggars; we gotta create ‘dignity of labor’ mindset and dutiful work culture & happy self-reliant lifestyle among people. These programs can be worked out through government support, support from philanthropists, through non-governmental organizations and general education. This way, by providing the primary & secondary needs of the people and responsible parents only producing children who are taken care of properly; we can assure peace, prosperity & happiness among people everywhere.

Happiness For All & No War

There is no place for war in the happy world. Firstly, of course, wars are the reaction of bad karmas of the people in terms of flesh food habits and other violent bad habits indulged by the people individually & collectively. Secondly, wars happen due to the conflict of the false egos of the people in terms of identifying themselves in narrow boundaries like race, religion, country, political ideology, caste, creed, color, culture, region etc. Division among people is due to the spiritual ignorance of our reality that we all originated from One Source and we all belong to One Creator and that we all are parts of One Whole universal body. So, unity among people through spiritual understanding is a must to stop all kinds of war knowing that harming/killing others is nothing but harming/killing ourselves that we are all one body. So, unity of the people is important to stop all kinds of war and to bring unity among people we gotta create one world country, one world government, one world citizenship, one world currency, one world religion, one world language for all. When we all belong to one world country there will be no false ego of individual nationality to fight war for and when we all belong to one religion there will be no religious conflicts and when we all use one currency economic disparity among people will reduce and when we all speak one language we all can come closer together and this way we can have true universal love & brotherhood & sisterhood among the people and live happily together. Wars are all waste & no gain for all and so let us live in happiness with no war ever and use all the resources so long wasted for war into the development works for the humanity as a whole.

Happiness For All & No Corruption

Corruption at the gross sense is nothing but misuse of public fund by some criminals for their private gain and thus depriving public of many important projects and development works to be done in the proper way that should have helped people live the happier life. Corruption in another sense is injustice done to the people because through bribery incompetent/substandard people/things are put in use for public posts/utilities thus harming/degrading the whole nation. Where corruption prevails, there the overall quality of the people will go down thus degrading the whole society as people will try to accumulate money/wealth by hook or crook and the honest & hard-working people will be discouraged. Corruption can be stopped or reduced to the minimum if leaders of the society are sincere, strict & disciplined and made themselves ideal guides & role models of the people to follow. When corruptions are stopped, all will be benefitted: the bribe givers [save money], the bribe takers [grow spiritual quality], the public [get due facilities] and when these happen, all will be happy in the society. So, let us support only the leaders who are against corruption and have benevolent mind for the progress, prosperity and happiness of all.

Happiness For All & No Prejudice, Hatred

One big blockade for keeping people away from happiness in social interactions is prejudice and origin of violent conflicts among people is hatred. So, if we want happiness among people, we gotta remove these two detrimental factors affecting love & harmony among people. Without true love & harmony, people cannot live happily together. Prejudice & hatred are mostly based on different physical looks and different cultures of the people and both are of secondary importance if we look into the universal common spiritual qualities of the people and the similar human aspects of the people in life and the oneness of all at the soul level. Let us appreciate the variety and enjoy the multiplicity that enhances our joys of life instead of living a boring life with the same type of face & physical features for all humanity? Instead of prejudicing against the fellow human beings let us look into their positive points and welcome them. Hating anyone harms more to the hater than to the hated and so in our best self interest & happy life, we should never hate anyone. Let us be in love & harmony and without any prejudice & hatred and live in happiness everywhere.

Happiness for all!
