"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts."
― Marcus Aurelius

My happiness is the most important thing to me, without happiness I am no good for for anyone. Meditation is the most important part of my happiness it has helped me to control my energy. I went from severe depression to feeling absolute love for life! If only everyone would meditate.

from 5:50 onwards, he said "well being is not just a mere pleasurable sensation. it is a deep sense of serenity and fullfillment. A state that actually pervades and underlies all emotional states, and all the joys and sorrows that can come one's way."

Lama Matthiew la, is no nonsense. Can't imagine how he mastered Buddhism which takes forever to practice & study - that even in Tibetan script. Man, he's French, speaks perfect English. Just awestruck with this great man. My prostration to you Lama la.🙏🙏🙏

Mind training can allow the happiness within us to flow more easily. Letting go of thought patterns to do with fear, anger, jealousy, blame, guilt, tension, stress, resentment, sorrow, irritation, frustration, criticism helps well being to flourish. We can all do this. We can all forgive past hurts and set ourselves free. We can accept this present moment as it is. We can celebrate our lives, trust our intuition to guide us on the path of consistent happiness. We can smile, hug, compliment, help, thank, praise, support, love, appreciate, respect every moment of every day and the beauty of this is that it all comes back to us. I wish for you all peace, love and harmony. I love you xxx :)

Happiness comes from gratitude. If you’re satisfied and accept the outer and the inner conditions then you won’t be unhappy or sad. That’s how it is.

I really like Ricard's comment about how we are so used to unhappiness that we have developed all sorts of philosophies to justify it. Everywhere I look online and in life I see an endless stream of complaining (from myself as well) about how everything sucks, and you just have to accept it.
When I suggest that things don't have to be that way, that the essential problem in a wealthy modern society is our mental perception and how our brains work, people have a hard time understanding it. They are just used to the idea that things are generally 'meh'. Sometimes they even get offended, like it's wrong of me to suggest that we could change things.

Matthieu Ricard (Nepali: माथ्यु रिका, born 15 February 1946) is a French writer, photographer, translator and Buddhist monk who resides at Shechen Tennyi Dargyeling Monastery in Nepal.
Matthieu Ricard grew up among the personalities and ideas of French intellectual circles. He received a Ph.D. degree in molecular genetics from the Pasteur Institute in 1972. He then decided to forsake his scientific career and instead practice Tibetan Buddhism, living mainly in the Himalayas.

Happiness is to accept what is, not chasing possessions.

No one said Buddhism or Buddhists are perfect. This is one man's particular views on happiness as a subject matter, and wisdom can be found in many walks of life. So do not insult him because some Buddhists somewhere else are not perfect, because the same statement can be said of many groups of people. All practices that teach tolerance, respect, love, kindness, and other morals are of good virtue. If one is truly wise, one will recognize good teachings no matter where they come from.

I know from personal experience that what this man says is true. I began practicing meditation 11 years ago and it has completely changed my life. Many aspects are the same - but it is my mind that has changed. Crack on people, crack on!

You want happiness?
Remove the "You". That is your ego.
Remove the "want". That is your desire.
Now, you are left with nothing but happiness.

Thanks for this inspirational happiness talk! I am in the middle of my own happiness experiment - harnessing endorphins and all sorts of other little things. So helpful!

A excellent point that we spend comparatively very little time training our minds to handle all the emotions and experiences that are part of life. This has really opened my eyes to the necessity and benefits of such training. Thank you for sharing this talk.
