True happiness in life ??????? - a podcast by 贤二机器僧

True Happiness in Life
The meaning of life lies not in enjoyment but in duties which are toward self, family, society, and even all sentient beings.

Buddhism believes that everyone is in close connection with nature and the world.

Such connection is highly profound and abundant as all sentient beings are interdependent with each other as well as with the environment.

Thus, the meaning of life rests with our duties toward all beings.

Learn to enjoy the things we ought to do.

Taking on duties is what gives life its significance, not a burden.

Take joy in doing things that are of help to others as what you do is valuable.

He who overemphasizes his own happiness often loses happiness as he feels the world is against him.

Whether we have a happy life depends on how we regard it.

If no one needs you to fulfill any duty, you may not have anyone to love or show gratitude toward.

So it is a blessing that we are able to take on duties.
