"Beyond Happiness" empowers us to be the change we seek in the world and unlock our inner treasure of peace, light and bliss. It is a free talk and practical course inspired by the life and teachings of Sri Chinmoy.
…be inspired
Inspiration is the guiding star of our spiritual life: the spark that awakens us from inertia, rekindles our love of life, and points us on the pathway to perfection. Without inspiration, we cannot grow, progress or succeed. But where to find inspiration, and how to keep it glowing bright?
…be happy
Happiness seems always just around the corner. We grasp it and… it slips through our fingers. True happiness cannot be founded on outer circumstances, actions or renown, which are ephemeral. Happiness is a state of being, an effulgence of our soul, not contingent on anything moveable or variable. But how to attain, and maintain this elusive state?
…be grateful
Gratitude is the master key to open all hearts, starting with our own. Our most loyal friend, gratitude sweetens, lightens and purifies our consciousness; obliterates negativity, overcomes obstacles and quickens our spiritual progress. But what exactly is gratitude, and how can we attain this treasure?
…be true
We cannot be true to ourselves if we do not know ourselves. We are not our physical appearance, our moods, opinions, beliefs or even our personality. We are our soul. To embody truth and authenticity, we needs must live in and from our soul. But where and what is the soul, and how to commence our search?
…be sure
We are uncertain and insecure because we rely on our thoughts, emotions and beliefs, which are changeable as the weather. Only our spiritual heart lives in permanent sunshine, so to be safe and sure, we must realign our sense of self with our spiritual heart. But how to relocate our dwelling to our heart-home?
…be free
For millennia we have fought for freedom – religious, political, economic, intellectual, creative and personal freedom. We are now more free than ever. And yet – we remain enslaved to our own thoughts, fears, desires and delusions. How to liberate ourselves from ourselves, and fly high in the freedom-sky?
