THE WORLD AFTER #64

march 2nd 2024

New release

Being happy today

The world’s upheavals call for happiness.
More than ever, they make social justice a planetary emergency, to ensure the material security essential to everyone’s happiness.

They cry out for paths to peace: the legitimate happiness of keeping all the children of the world free from hatred…
They proclaim that nature needs to live happily in order to make humans happy in turn.
They break the mirage of a perishable happiness that can be bought and consumed, constantly drawing those who covet it outside themselves.

The shocks of the world also push us to find within ourselves the strength… to resist them:
« The secret of profound happiness, says Lord HAMSAH MANARAH, lies in the greatest self-mastery and harmonious development of the being, cultivation of the spirit, love of neighbor. The more self-controlled we are, the stronger we are in the face of trials. » ( Le Yoga de la vie pratique, p. 235.)
Developing this strength enables us to overcome our own difficulties and help others. It gives meaning to life, whatever happens:

« All those who are happy are happy because they have sought the happiness of others. »

For those who want to make a fresh start towards the happiness of love, World Happiness Day (set for March 20 by the UN) coincides, in the northern hemisphere, with the first day of spring. !
