Happiness
“…inner peace is the ultimate source of happiness…”
His Holiness the Dalai Lama: A 2 minute video clip from Khashyar
“Ultimately we want happiness.
We do not want suffering – everybody – every sentient being. Now we are actually creating more unnecessary suffering.
I think it’s very important to make clear to the public – we are not talking about religion. ‘If we have more compassion, God will be pleased’ – we’re not talking about that. ‘If we, as Buddhists, have more compassion, Buddha will support us’ – I’m not talking about that.
If we are more compassionate I will get benefit. – I will be a happier person – that’s the point.
Here – one million check! – one million dollars… But here (hand on heart) no peace! That one million dollars will not bring inner peace – happiness.
This money brings more frustration, more suspicion, more anxiety, or sometimes more jealousy.
So inner peace is the ultimate source of happiness – joyfulness.
I think people do not understand that.
That’s my point.”

“Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.” — Dalai Lama
