One day an exhausted man from his life went to meet God Buddha. He belonged to a rich family and had all comforts in his life.

He screamed in pain, ‘I WANT Happiness’.

i want happinessLord Buddha smiled and said politely, ‘First remove ‘I’ that is Ego. Now remove ‘WANT’- That’s Desire.’

Now you are only left with ‘HAPPINESS’.

Happiness is around you. You can never be happy when you trying to satisfy your own ego as you are saying ‘I want Happiness’. How?

First, when you use ‘I’ then it shows that you are self-centric. I want Happiness. I want this. I want that.

A person with self-centric can never be happy.
