Sogyal Rinpoche ~ We've Got It All Completely Wrong
Published on 22 Jul 2013
Everyone wants to be happy. But why do our constant struggles to make ourselves happy so often lead to frustration, or even depression? In seeking happiness for ourselves alone we become self-centred, caught up in a claustrophobic state of mind, where we not only end up not being happy but there's no end to problems, we shirk our responsibilities and blame others. Cherishing ourselves is supposed to make us happy, but it actually makes things worse.
On the other hand, by cherishing others, working for the benefit of others and thinking of others, your own welfare is taken care of as a matter of course. For example, simply by recognising other people as 'another you', a small door in your heart begins to open. It unblocks the love we have inside us and this brings us real happiness.
