How To Derive Happiness?

We all like to have a life where we have everything we wish for. Imagine for a while, we are blessed with everything we desire. But how can one enjoy such a life without feeling the boredom at its tail end? It goes well with the saying ‘Too much of anything is too bad’. In order to enjoy the real happiness one must look forward to for happiness – born of hard work.
***
A few life’s lessons prove the validity of hard work. Suppose a person inherits wealth beyond count, looks happy – with many servants, modern bungalow and enviable clothes. We have yet another person who toils throughout the day and earns the amount needed for the smooth running of his family. Who, between these two, realises the real happiness that hard work brings in life? Surely the latter. It is because the person that inherited, has only to spend from the wealth given to him. Likewise, true happiness comes to a hardworking student who passes his exams with good percentage of marks. When the results are declared he is the happiest person for he reaped good results from his dedicated work. Your attitude to work hard develops your discipline, concentration and selfconfidence.

To aid your hard work, positive bent of mind is necessary in every walk of life. We must realise that day and night, joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, success and failure, gain and loss are shadows of each other. Without pain we won’t be able to enjoy comforts. Likewise different types of experiences teach us different lessons. Each lesson must help us to hsarpen our mind to have a matured outlook over life.
***
Do believe that God never gives us any tough situation that we cannot handle. Never feel upset when you are in trouble. Just give an auto-suggestion to yourself, 'I can tackle this. That is why God is making me face it'. This attitude helps you discover your hidden power within you to fight out the troubles. Get set and go on the path of happiness.

Meditation kills all pains, sufferings and sorrows. Meditation induces a sense of oneness. Meditation is a balloon or a parachute or the aeroplane that helps the aspirant to soar high into the realm of eternal bliss, everlasting peace and undying joy.___ Swami Sivananda...
