Synopsis If happiness were a myth, the Buddha would never be able to accomplish it. Neither Ramakrishna, Vivekananda, Gandhi and others, who followed the road to impersonal love, would ever have got it. True,the path leading to impersonal love is certainly difficult, but nothing can be achieved without following the right path and the right means. Happiness can be attained if one can cultivate silence of the mind. That silence can be attained by proper awareness. It can be reached by keeping the mind totally alert so that it acts like an observer who works without interfering with others. Happiness can surely be obtained by: Keeping the mind’s energy intact, without wasting it in insignificant matters; Attaining higher consciousness by meditation and prayers or by any informal procedure too, provided one is able to keep one's mind alert and free from mental fetters; Understanding and practising unselfish love; Learning the importance of sacrifice and selflessness.
