               Simple secret to Happiness

           Happiness a Mystery?

        Happiness is perhaps the most wanted thing for every human being in the mortal world, perhaps which is the fundamental reason behind unsurmountable greed, corruption, loot & accumulation of wealth & every type of crime in human society. But question is, "Is all of this, making any person truly happy ?? Not, then where this happiness can be found by every human being and what is "Secret of Happiness". So to know Secret of happiness, there is first need to understand what is happiness, even though as such there is no concrete definition of happiness is existing anywhere in the world.

Ideas of happiness from experts

      Famous Psychiatrist Sigmund Freud can be found saying that all humans strive after happiness, but those possibilities of achieving it are restricted because all are so made that all can derive intense enjoyment only from a contrast and very little from the state of things, which simply means - Sigmund Fraud rather than just telling that -"He can't understand Happiness " is using just a jargon ended in defining the only extent of happiness and not unfeignedly explaining "what is happiness.

       Samely, philosopher, political economist- John Stuart Mill claimed that for the great majority of citizenry happiness is best achieved en passant, rather than striving for it directly. This meant no self-consciousness, scrutiny, self-interrogation, dwelling on, thinking about, imagining or questioning on one's happiness. Then, if otherwise fortunately circumstanced, one would "inhale happiness with the air you breathe." Once again all this means - Mr John Stuart Mill like Philosophers are also failing everybody to precisely define what is happiness.

Ideas of Happiness from Religions

       Eastern religions are seen making the same type of inconceivable claims as"Happiness is the state of ultimate freedom from sufferings or Happiness comes from identifying God or Brahman by Soulful searching, But No, Religion in the world can be seen identifying -what is happiness in a perfect and punctilious manner, so that people can practice it and simply be happy in their lives.

        All this means no institution or authority or intellectual persona- in true sense are knowing what is happiness and what is exactly needed to be done to achieve a constant state of happiness in day to day life, without running behind some English Jargon or inventing some pie in the sky to replace simple issue of happiness in the name of religion and mighty-ness of God.

Enigma of Happiness

        Now Question is, "Is true happiness such a greatest enigma, which cant be solved by anyone ??" Then answer is, obviously not, as happiness is always a simple issue to latch upon but always missed by everybody all the time as like thorns on footpath missed by Joggers, only to get -the first victim of those bare thorns- overstepping on them one calamitous early morning.

        Yes, the issue is simple, as happiness is not some unimaginable-state of mind or conditioning of mind but it is simple "Human Emotion" as like other emotions such as Love, Hate, Sadness or Grief. And being an emotion any human being can choose to be happy or not be happy just as choosing to be in love or to be hateful or to keep grieving or not be in love or not to be contemptible or not bereft. Happiness is basically "a choice of the human mind" and Human mind can choose to be happy by accepting everything in life whether let it be how much "bad and cruel" or "good and blissful". So True Secret to be happy is "Acceptance of everything in life as it is without reacting or unnecessarily judging it "

Accept everything as it is,,

         Once anyone --start accepting every good and bad of day to day life as it is without judging it-- then one is free to be happy for all the time. Enemy of Happiness is - resistance to unexpected happenings and denial to irreversible circumstances surfacing into everyday life. If one learns to accept everything in life as it is, then naturally a sense of gratitude, sense of fulfilment and easiness for everything, will start prevailing among one's heart and life, opening a broad way for oneself to be "All the Time Happy Individual". 

So accept everything in life as it is and be all the time most happy individual in all seasons of life.
