A Way to Happiness

Some reader has suggested me to be optimists and change my sight of perception. Thanks for the beautiful opinion, I will follow what I could but I am not gonna make a fake promise. While some reader request for the solution (last article). So, I am trying my best to solve the puzzle that I have created in hundreds of mind. Before I continue, I would like to state that I am not a professor, literature or expertise in consoling or theology. Just a simple student, chasing the dream that I dreamt since childhood, I doubt whether, I success of not. Oh!!! Not, again. Apologize.

Apologize for taking such a long time.



If we desire a beautiful garden, we need a basic knowledge regarding the flowers and it’s maintaining. It’s not going to work just throwing seeds. It might grow but that not what you are looking for. Just like an attractive garden, we need to know some basic knowledge, which makes us happy as well as other around you. According to Buddhist philosophy the easiest way to create beautiful and peaceful environment is by following, I rather say practicing ten wholesome deeds. They are not killing, not stealing, not indulging in sexual misconduct, telling the truth, not engaging in divisive talk (slandering), using pleasant speech, not indulging in idle talk, not being covetous to others wealth, not cultivating harmful intention to other and holding correct view.

Although these ten wholesome deeds are very fundamental of Buddhism however, without following these basic steps, we are doom from HAPPINESS. If we talk about the cause of evil in society, everything is within these ten wholesome deeds. Geo Lyong Lee said “environmental pollution is nothing but an outward manifestation of inner pollution of human mind” so, true. Because of our attachment and so on, which bubble up our negativity and make us blind, not physically but mentally. Example when we are angry, we act according to our anger however, we remorse when we come back to our sense. Practicing these ten wholesome deeds means walking toward realm of HAPPINESS.

Don’t try to take action immediately, first we have to figure out the cause which has made us or our society disturbed, violent and uproar. Knowing the cause, its antidote should be found out and implemented. Always keep in mind that “if there is a problem, there is a solution too” further, if there is any disturbance, definitely there must be cause behind it so, does the path to solve the disturbance.

“Peace is related to the quality of the mind and so we need to learn how to keep the mind in one’s control. We don’t need to walk thousands miles to find the solution (peace), it’s within us. We just have to know and put into practice.” Our mind is like a mad elephant, controlling is bit complicated at first however it will be easier as we keep Practising.

“Everything is possible, if there is will”
