So, we need to reflect on ourselves before blaming others and at the same time take responsibility for the improvement of any irrational part of the present reality.

Anybody who is born into this world has a right to be happy. Until now, for those who do not exercise their right to be happy and are mired in suffering, I have mostly talked about how individuals should cultivate their minds in their practice. In this book, however, I will also talk about social change, which is another wheel that pulls the cart of happiness.

If we as individuals suffer due to our negative mindset, we should change this habit. if we suffer due to a relationship that went sour, we should examine the cause of the conflict and find the solution. If we think that a social system is the problem, we should first try our best to adapt to the current system, and then, if we are sure that the system is the problem, we should try to improve it. Most of us, however, just complain without making any effort to change it. As a result, the world doesn\u2019t change, and we continue to be miserable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, we can never enter the path to happiness when we cling to such negative feelings. If someone tries to give us a bag of trash, we shouldn\u2019t take it. If we took it inadvertently, we should say, \u201cEww, it\u2019s dirty,\u201d and throw it away immediately. Unfortunately, however, we continue to keep it deep in our hearts, so it is difficult for us to be happy no matter how hard we try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we as individuals suffer due to our negative mindset, we should change this habit. if we suffer due to a relationship that went sour, we should examine the cause of the conflict and find the solution. If we think that a social system is the problem, we should first try our best to adapt to the current system, and then, if we are sure that the system is the problem, we should try to improve it. Most of us, however, just complain without making any effort to change it. As a result, the world doesn\u2019t change, and we continue to be miserable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anybody who is born into this world has a right to be happy. Until now, for those who do not exercise their right to be happy and are mired in suffering, I have mostly talked about how individuals should cultivate their minds in their practice. In this book, however, I will also talk about social change, which is another wheel that pulls the cart of happiness. In the end, our happiness will be whole only when the individual\u2019s mental attitude(seed) and social conditions(field) are cultivated together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Individual happiness and making a good society are not two different things. An individual\u2019s effort alone doesn\u2019t make the world a better place nor do improved external conditions alone make an individual happy. Happiness and unhappiness are the results of a combination of the individual\u2019s mental attitude and the surrounding environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, we need to reflect on ourselves before blaming others and at the same time take responsibility for the improvement of any irrational part of the present reality. In the end, it is all to our benefit. No matter how hard we try to lead a good life, we are bound to suffer if things go wrong in the world. Complacent thoughts like \u201cAs long as it is not me, it\u2019s all right.\u201d or \u201cIt can\u2019t possibly happen to me.\u201d will not protect us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To enter the path to complete happiness, from now on, we should live as the masters of our lives and of the world with the awareness that we ourselves create our own happiness. Each of us is an insignificant entity like a speck of dust in space, but when we become the masters of our own lives, we can change ourselves as well as the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we aspire to become vital to the world and well used by the world rather than try to lead the good life and succeed for only our own benefit, we will be happy and be helpful to the world at the same time. Then, happiness will be a reality rather than a dream. It is also the way for us to exercise our right to be happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope that this book becomes a guide to happiness for those who are tired of living, got hurt in relationships, and suffer in this seemingly irrational world.<\/p>\n","post_title":"You Have The Right To Be Happy Regardless Of Your Life Situation","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"you-have-the-right-to-be-happy-regardless-of-your-life-situation","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-06-12 15:30:20","post_modified_gmt":"2024-06-12 20:30:20","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.jungtosociety.org\/?p=19657","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":14178,"post_author":"13","post_date":"2022-11-17 10:51:04","post_date_gmt":"2022-11-17 15:51:04","post_content":"\n

A large part of the reason we are unhappy lies in our inability to let go. Let\u2019s say a man swore at us. It is the same as him handing us a bag of trash. We hold onto the dirty bag tightly and rummage through the trash all our lives saying, \u201cHe swore at me,\u201d or \u201cHe slighted me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, we can never enter the path to happiness when we cling to such negative feelings. If someone tries to give us a bag of trash, we shouldn\u2019t take it. If we took it inadvertently, we should say, \u201cEww, it\u2019s dirty,\u201d and throw it away immediately.

All kinds of things happen in our lives. Usually, things don\u2019t turn out the way we want them to. We want to be loved but may get hurt instead or people we cared about may backstab us. Nothing in this world, however, happens without a reason. Nevertheless, it is not because of God\u2019s will, sin committed in a previous life, or pure chance. We just don\u2019t know the reason.
