How To Derive Happiness?
We all like to have a life where we have everything we wish for. Imagine for a while, we are blessed with everything we desire. But how can one enjoy such a life, without feeling the boredom at its tail end? It goes well with the saying ‘Too much of anything is too bad’. In order to enjoy the real happiness one must look forward to for happiness-born of hard work. A few life’s lessons prove the validity of hard work. Suppose a person inherits wealth beyond count looks happy-with many servants, modern bungalow and enviable clothes. . we have yet another person who toils through out the day and earns the amount needed for the smooth running of his family. Who, between these two realizes the real happiness that hard work brings in life? Surely the latter. It is because the person that inherited, has only to spend from the wealth given to him. Likewise, true happiness comes to a hardworking student who passes his exams with good percentage of marks. When the results are declared he is the happiest person for the reaped good result from his dedicated work. Your attitude to work hard develops your discipline; concentration and self confidence.
To aid your hard work, positive bent of mind is necessary in every walk of life. We must realize that day and night, joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, success and failure, gain and loss are shadow, of each other. Without pain we wont be able to enjoy comforts. Like wise different types of experiences teach us different lessons. Each lesson must help us to sharpen our mind to have a matured outlook over life.
Do believe that God never gives us any tough situation that we can not handle. Never feel upset when you are in trouble. Just give an auto-suggestion to yourself, ‘I can tackle this. That is why God is making me face it. This attitude helps you discover your hidden power within you to fight out the troubles. Get set and go on the path of happiness.
Mediation Kills Suffering
Mediation kills all pains, sufferings and sorrows. Mediation induces a sense of oneness. Mediation is a balloon or a parachute or the airplane that helps the aspirant to soar high into the realm of eternal bliss, everlasting peace and undying joy. Swami Sivananda
Quote from The Essence of the Gita
In due time, having reached perfection in yoga, the person attains knowledge in his or her own heart. An illumined person is one who has found inner contentment after giving up all desires, who has brought under control lust, anger and other passions, and who is able to work using the senses organ without being controlled by them.
I drive joy
There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 5 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive from? I am not robbing you of your joy; why should you rob me of mine. He asked. The critics were silenced. –Baba- Chinna Katha
