Secrets of Happiness

Again , "Hijjacked" by BF in between his transit from Perth to London. Ajahn Brahm kindly gave another Dharma Talk to guide us towards Happiness.

During his 1.5 hr talk, pointers noted:

WHAT DO I NEED?
BE CONTENTED WITH WHAT YOU HAVE,
LEARNING HOW TO BE CONTENTED

Caring heals...Curing comes secondary (I think those in Medical Healthcare Service shd invite Ajahn to advise how to radiate care and kindness in their work and achieve efficiency:P)

Kindness is the Universal religion...
When someone is trying to upset you, why let him upset you?
Smile and take charge of your own happiness...

Secrets of unhappiness: worry about the future, worrying about what will happen next makes one unable to enjoy Today.
Be kind to this moment... TODAY....

How to handle grief over loss of beloved:
Look at what you had enjoyed before with the beloved & not loss

Look for kindness in your heartA true Buddhist is one who is kind and care for others...

There is no Right/Wrong choice
It is just different choice/path chosen...
(Agree...)
With this thinking, you will learn not to be afraid of making choices...
