Most of us walk around with a false sense of happiness.
You're happy because it is a beautiful day, the sun is shining, the flowers are blooming, you go to the beach, the movies.
We think we're happy, but if you search deep within yourself, you'll realize there's a big sadness, a large unhappiness inside.
The happiness I'm referring to is beyond humanity, beyond good and bad, beyond experiences. It is your real state. It's what you are.
Happiness and Bliss are synonymous. It has absolutely nothing to do with this world in which we live. In this world all kinds of things happen. And we believe we have to live a certain kind of life to be happy. We believe we have to have certain kinds of possessions to be happy. It's all false. It is the happiness that will bring the good to you. It's opposite. It is the reverse.
In other words if you want to be happy, happiness is the same as abundance, health, joy, peace, harmony.
These things come to you as a result of your happiness. It's the other way around. Most of us believe that if we have certain things we'll be happy. But I'm saying to you, be happy first and the other things will come to you on their own volition. Ponder this.

“The joy of Being, which is the only true happiness, cannot come to you through any form, possession, achievement, person, or event—through anything that happens. That joy cannot come to you—ever. It emanates from the formless dimension within you, from consciousness itself and thus is one with who you are.”
~ Eckhart Tolle
