True Happiness Is Effortless
Life is meaningless and purposeless if happiness is absent.
The truth of the matter is that many people are unhappy. So, the leading
question is: what makes you happy?
It is also a myth that happiness is something that can be
pursued with willpower and effort. The Bible rightly says that pursuing
happiness is “like chasing the wind.” (Ecclesiastes
2:11)
Effort does not necessarily bring happiness; it only creates
the illusion of an environment conducive to creating temporary
happiness.
One may work diligently in one’s career to excel and to get
to the top of the profession only to find that one has a terminal illness, or
has incurred a debilitating accident. To illustrate, Joe Paterno the former Penn
State
Pursuing happiness may be only a fantasy fueled by temporary
moments of happiness, because aging, illnesses, misfortunes, and ultimately
death plague all alike; in other words, impermanence cuts short all
human efforts to bring happiness. We are all aware of the fact that
impermanence is a leveler of everybody and everything, but many of us still
choose to delude ourselves into thinking otherwise. Denial only fosters the
myth that if there is a will there must be a way to attaining happiness, and
that all it requires is human effort to make any dream come true.
The truth of the matter is that true happiness is,
surprisingly, effortless, because it comes from within, and not from without;
it is part of self, and is natural to human life and existence.
This
book shows you how to attain true human wisdom through asking self-intuitive
questions, creating an empty mindset with reverse thinking to let you have a
blueprint for the art of living in this challenging world.
This book shows you that true human happiness comes
from human wisdom to understand self and others, as well as the world around,
deepening the innate spirituality that guides the body and the soul to live as
if everything is a miracle.
