"Happiness is ...."

“Happiness is not just a coincidence; it is a capacity that every individual has at their disposal.  Everyone can be, or become, happy.  Modern research tells us what factors have a bearing on happiness.  Step by step we can transform the factors that militate against happiness.  This is true of individuals and the whole of society.”





“The aim of a secular ethic is to free us of momentary and long-term suffering and to develop the ability to support others in the pursuit of happiness.  One aspect of compassion is the spontaneous willingness to act for the welfare of others.”
The Dalai Lama
