Real, lasting happiness is something that each one of us has the potential to experience, but often habitual ways of thinking take us in the opposite direction. It can be easy to get caught in negative or discontent attitudes towards ourself and others. So how can we cultivate a habit that makes us happy? Happiness is an inner experience that can be cultivated by harnessing Buddha’s wisdom mindsets in daily life.
“Inner peace, or mental peace, is the source of all our happiness. Although all living beings have the same basic wish to be happy all the time, very few people understand the real causes of happiness.”
- Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
