Nothing can make us happy. We are happiness itself. So go home to your SELF!!!!!
we want the bliss that we are....
So when we are not enthusiastic or in joy qbout certain activities we shouldnt perform them? I mean if there is resistance to doing 3d survival stuff. I cant even remember doing joy or enthusiasm these types of emotions actually exist on this planet anymore? Maybe once upon a time...
🌅IS it Not Utopia to assume Happiness lS Something that Can Be Permanent🤍Same As Assuming That Permanent L 🤍 v e lS Possible🌅All These Are Utopia🤍
We live in duality, if you can live with unhappiness you are always happy.
"Nobody and nothing can make us unhappy. Our suffering is our own moment to moment activity." Would this also be the case where someone is being tortured and murdered? Fairly sure they're being made unhappy.
Very true. And its kind of like how people had suffered in concentration camps under Hitlers rule. And yet while there was the captives what had been overcome by the suffering and had given up and perhaps even quickly died, there was others who'd decided to turn the tables around by finding ways to survive and to create their own types of community amusement. Which must have seriously pissed some of the guards off no end 🙂
Exactly. All these semantics are just that. Words. Once a real hardship hits, no one cares about all the yakkety-yak.
@middleofnowhere1313 I'd love to get an answer from the gurus on this point. I've asked many times but never get a reasonable response.
@@ron4520 so you don't believe that there'd be any strong minded and strong willed Ukrainians out there in our world who still manage to find a way to create their own sense of happiness, and fun and even enjoyment of sorts, even in tough times when bombs have been falling and been tearing buildings apart, and death has been all around them. Even so far as to run a disco, and party the night and days away, with some other Ukrainians. Perhaps doing so while running their working bees to rebuild, even although their efforts could very well stand a chance to end up to be all for nothing, if in fact Russian invaders could even return and begin bombing the buildings all over again
You don't believe that there has been staunch military men throughout time either who've smiled in the faces of their torturers, rather than agreeing to bow down to the will of tyrants who'd otherwise seek to use the info they'd desire to extract, through torture, to get to use such to go and kill large numbers of other good people
You don't think so Ron?
Its not that its necessarily ever a breeze to achieve. That's for certain. Few gurus would bother to say it is. But even so, this still isn't to say that it cannot ever be achieved
There is a distinction made between suffering and pain. Someone who is being tortured or murdered is experiencing pain in the physical sense which is not caused by them but someone or something outside of themselves. Suffering, on the other hand, refers to the mental anguish we create or recreate when anticipating a future experience which may be unpleasant or a past event that was unpleasant or made us unhappy. Someone else can inflict pain on us, but most of our mental suffering is self inflicted.
