Happiest person is not one who gets
the best of everything in life but is one who makes the best of
everything he gets.
Happiness is of two types. One is Conditioned Happiness and
the other is Unconditioned Eternal Happiness. Conditioned happiness
is based on situation. If the situation is favorable and congenial
you feel happy or else you feel bad. When you are appreciated
or you have financial gain or you buy a new house or you go on
a holiday or children obey you or you have been bought a gift,
all such favorable things make you happy. And when the situation
is unfavorable such as job loss, friction with the spouse, ill
health, insult, things not happening as expected you would feel
sad.
In Unconditioned Eternal Happiness one is always in a state
of happiness unbothered of profit or loss, good or bad situation,
appreciated or blamed and busy at work place or on a holiday.
In this state of unconditioned eternal happiness one’s focus
is on the Inner Being. While focusing on the Inner Being one does
not get affected by external happenings. Favorable and unfavorable
situations are observed as mere situations without any analysis
or judgement. One’s acceptance levels are so high that every
situation is accepted as a gift from God and in every situation
one feels positive. One sees profit after loss, sees a chance
to relax in sickness and sees loss of job as opening for a new
opportunity.
Through regular Meditation, knowledge of Inner Being and conscious
effort to remain in an equilibrium state in all situations of
life, one gets to establish himself in a state of unconditioned
eternal happiness. One always feels light, energetic, lively and
joyful in this state. Remaining established in this state, one
attracts all the good vibes from cosmos. This state may automatically
invoke one’s powers of higher consciousness such as intuition,
clairvoyance, divination, foreknowledge, telepathy etc.
Let the goal of life be to establish in such a state of Unconditioned
Eternal Happiness and live life happily thereafter!
