Doctrines of Happiness
  • The word happiness has a thousand definitions
    literally! When most people in todays society
    use the word, they usually mean positive emotion
    or feeling. It is also a way of describing
    satisfaction with life, or general well being. An
    interesting comparison is found in the four (4)
    Doctrines of Happiness by way of Sanskrit and
    in the modern world we call, today.
  • Today, I want you to understand the levels of
    happiness.
  • I want to offer you a modern, more readily
    understood version of being authentically happy.
  • And then, touch on the four levels found in more
    traditional or Sanskrit meanings.

Happiness has meant many other things.
  • Some of which, are surprising when we compare
    them with our current understanding of the word.
  • In Christian philosophy it often relates to the
    emotion of feeling blessed. By definition, this
    could also translate to suffering waiting for
    their divine time in heaven.
  • Described in East Asian religions and philosophy,
    happiness means a life of fulfillment and joy
    living and leading the way. It also meant
    liberation from stressors in the day to day life
    living a life by design. And, these ways
    almost always relate to nature.

Therefore, they incorporate elements such as
  • positive emotion
  • engagement
  • positive relationships
  • meaning
  • accomplishment
  • The happy life is sometimes called the good
    life, which includes all of those goods we would
    choose for ourselves, including integrity and
    ethics.
