Where can one always find happiness?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"True happiness is not the absence of sorrow, but the acceptance of both joy and pain, allowing you to transcend the duality of life and discover an inner stillness."
According to Osho, you can always find 'happiness' only in the dictionary under H; in life it comes paired with unhappiness. Seeking perpetual bliss breeds misery. The truly happy person welcomes both joy and sorrow and remains a witness to them. Through total acceptance, you transcend the swing of opposites and discover an abiding inner stillness beyond happiness and unhappiness.
Only the dictionary always has happiness; in real life accept ups and downs and watch them, and you’ll feel steady inside.
