The
Spiritual Sages of all the great Faith Traditions remind us that two great
qualities required by the Spiritual Seeker are JOY and GRATITUDE. They also remind us that these
qualities result in greater happiness.
The
Sages remind us that Practicing
happiness is a wonderful Spiritual Practice ( Sadhana).
A useful Sadhana or Spiritual Practice is to pause, become aware of the present moment and re-mind yourself of something , in your awareness, that is positive, acknowledge this positive. It could be a 'thing', a feeling, a thought, etc in the present moment.
Then let that acknowledgement widen and deepen into both an appreciation and a joy.
Then express your gratitude for this.
The above simple practice can be done first thing in the morning and last thing at night.
It is an ancient mindful practice based in all the Spiritual Traditions.

The
following reflection comes from the Hindu Vedas.
Be Happy!
Love yourself but don’t
judge others.
Forgive, always be simple
And don’t make
distinctions
Be still !
But above all be Happy
And in the end you will
find yourself
Just by knowing how
things are.
Be Happy!
The Aschtakakra Gita
