"The way to do is to be," suggesting that happiness lies in embracing the journey rather than fixating on its end-- Lao Tzu
The notion of happiness and the perception thereof needs a complete overhaul in this fast-paced world, otherwise sooner or later the youth will be a depressed person.
Our value system in society also dangerously promotes materialism and wants of endless........
Seriously think about it, we are doing something and want to be happy after achieving a milestone. Seriously? Just remember one thing even if you achieve that milestone, it will be a temporary happiness for you. Becuase human psychology is so wired that anything that is distant to me is more precious in perception. That implies that if I manage to achieve a particular outcome, then soon that will lose its importance and as a result, I would need something more to become happy.
This is such a vicious cycle, that goes on and on. Every time you achieve an outcome in tune with your desire and needs or aspirations, you also push the happiness threshold, so every single time you need something bigger than the present to become happy. Your appetite will never end.
Happiness is a state of being. For sure. You are a happy being. Just break those self-imposed barriers/notions/perceptions. Forget about the outcome, just remain in tune with the flow. Your mindful moments, the spontaneous moments you have are more precious than any future moments.
Even if you have some reasonable goals in life, make it a passive phenomenon. Let that come passively, let's focus on the present day, or rather very spontaneous moment you have.
That is why in Buddhism also emphasis is given to desirelessness and in Bhagabat Gita also dispassionate Karma has been prescribed by Lord Krishna.
Always remember, the future does not exist, the only thing that exists or the only living moment is the present moment. Only NOW exists. Live this moment.
Your mindful breathing will make you realize how precious the present moment is. Master the art of breathing and explore new heights of happiness and peace.
To be continued.........
How many truths in this post to understand that in our inner world are the answers to everything that leads us to peace and in the continuous present is the key...saludos @milaan
Yes of course, Happiness does not await in the future, it is available in the present, it is the immediate path or the moment you have now. Live in NOW. Stay blissful.
