What is happiness?

by | May 2, 2020 | 0 comments

“‘Happiness’ is a trap.  There is no place where it exists, no time where it appears, no form it’s built in or language it can be read.  The illusion of happiness being attainable sometime, somewhere, is perhaps the biggest fallacy humans have ever come up with.  Yet, we are all drawn, in a primal way, to some sort of wellbeing; some sort of liberation from the constant suffering.  In this way, ‘happiness’ is only accessible as an indirect result.  It must be birthed from freedom, wisdom, and compassion.”
