	The Art of Happiness
		The Art of Happiness: A Handbook for Living was a groundbreaking collaboration between H.H. the 14th Dalai Lama, and Howard C. Cutler, M.D., a Phoenix-based psychiatrist.
		Happiness is determined more by the state of one’s mind than by one’s external conditions, circumstances, or events—at least once one’s basic survival needs are met.
		The Art of Happiness Workshops, offered in cities throughout the US by Dr. Cutler, a Board Certified psychiatrist, are based largely on The Art of Happiness books, but supplemented with additional techniques and exercises drawn from recent developments in the science of human happiness, and the emerging field of Positive Psychology.

		Happy people, in contrast, are generally found to be more sociable, flexible, and creative and are able to tolerate life's daily frustrations more easily than unhappy people.
		The investigators discovered that the subjects who were feeling happy were more likely to help someone or to lend money than another "control group" of individuals who were presented with the same opportunity to help but whose mood had not been boosted ahead of time.

		Happiness can be achieved through training the mind for a new attitude, new outlook, new approach to living, identifying and eliminating the factors that lead to suffering and cultivating the factors which lead to happiness.(p13-15)
		Happiness that depends mainly on physical pleasure is unstable — one day it’s there, the next day it may not be — don’t put conditions on your happiness (like saying if I get this, or if that happens, then I will be happy).
		What we are seeking is ultimate happiness, the kind that is stable and persistent, the kind that remains despite life’s ups and downs and normal fluctuations of mood, as part of the very matrix of your being.

		In Bhutan, happiness is a measuring stick by which all aspects of modernization are judged.
		To the contrary, it is perhaps because happiness cannot be measured that the King created the concept and goals of GNH in the first place.
		Just as with their king, the Bhutanese may submit a grievance to the government if they feel their happiness is being neglected." I see this level of accountability happening more and more in business and it is refreshing to see it now happening in a government.

	Outline
		Our happiness may be influenced by what we have and what happens to us, but the ultimate source of long-term happiness is mental.
		Since the source of happiness is mental, the most effective way to seek happiness is by training our minds in the ways of happiness.
		Relationships based on compassion (on desiring that all people be happy and escape suffering) are based on unchanging aspects of the human condition, and so are more stable than relationships based on status, common interests, wealth, sex, or romance.

		The Art of Happiness By Vikram Karve The primary aim of philosophy and spirituality is to help ordinary people live a life of happiness, fulfillment and tranquility.
		Highfalutin philosophers and spiritual gurus may prescribe various impracticable esoteric paths of renunciation, asceticism or sectarian precepts eschewing enjoyment and pleasure as the sine qua non of happiness but the fact of the matter is that to the ordinary person happiness and pleasure are inextricably intertwined.

		There's nothing in "The Art of Happiness" that made me think, "Gee, I've never heard that before." What's written here echoes the common teachings of almost all religions, systems of ethics, and wise grandmothers.
		So it follows logically that the way to be happy is to tinker with the underlying causes: to deliberately cultivate the positive states of mind, making them stronger, while also trying to get rid of the negative states.
		The approach is meant to be non-authoritative; you're supposed to identify which emotions are positive and which are negative on the basis of learning and experience, not by taking someone else's word for it.

		In Buddhism, for instance, there is a reference to the four factors of fulfillment, or happiness: wealth, worldly satisfaction, spirituality, and enlightenment.
		If what we seek in life is happiness, and intimacy is an important ingredient of a happier life, then it clearly makes sense to conduct our lives on the basis of a model of intimacy that includes as many forms of connection with others as possible.
		Cutler speculates that if the Dalai Lama's definition of loving someone is to wish for their happiness an release from suffering, even most of those suffering from self-hatred do indeed love themselves as well.

		We are constantly reminded that happiness has less to do with money - at which my colleagues scoff - and more to do with the networks of family and friends in which we operate.
		But that does not stop the concept of happiness, and particularly its relationship with cash, coming under renewed scrutiny by economists, psychologists and social scientists, all searching for that 'blueprint for bliss'.
		Lord Layard, who is based at the ESRC-funded Centre for Economic Performance, argues that the relentless pursuit of economic growth is exacting a high price from the national psyche, leaving depression and emotional impoverishment in its wake.

		I was doing a research grant to study Tibetan medicine and as it turned out, the Dalai Lama's older brother was director of the Tibet Medical Center at that time and I got to know his older brother and family quite well and they initially introduced me to him.
		For example, the Dalai Lama's approach to happiness involves recognizing that once we have our basic physical needs met for food and clothing and so on, at that point, the mind determines one's happiness much more than one's external circumstances, events or situations.
		For example, a simple technique is reflecting on a consistent basis (on) all the advantages that we have and reflecting on those who are less fortunate than we are, rather than constantly comparing ourselves to those who have more or who are richer or smarter or thinner, and so on.
