I’ve often thought that most of the advice on how to be happy was misguided. Not that it was all bad, but most people don’t understand what the root of true happiness is.
My observations come from my life long experience with studying Metaphysics, Meditation, and various religions.
My view is that we live in a world of illusions and we delude ourselves into thinking that by satisfying our Ego we will be happy.
However, the Ego is an illusion too. It’s not our true self—our eternal spirit is our true self.
The eternal self or spirit exists outside of time and space.
We suffer many illusions which keeps us believing that we can become happy through worldly goods, power, or sex.
Imagine that your spirit is light a light in a fish bowl of water. Your thoughts and emotions are like silt swirling in that water. When you learn stillness and peace—usually through some form of meditation, then the silt falls to the bottom and your true spirit shines out.
When we learn stillness, and calm our thoughts and emotions, we also start to pierce the illusion of temporary “happiness”. Instead we start to become happy by living in the spirit—which is where true happiness resides.
The book “Removing Illusions to find True Happiness” goes into the illusions we suffer and how to remove them in much more detail.
Here’s hoping you all learn to live in the spirit and find true happiness.
