This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for November 07, 2008:
As Buddha said 'There is no path to joy. Joy is the path.'
or as the cliche goes: happiness is an inside job.
I think living this and sharing this message with others is the answer.
Often we put happiness on hold or make it conditional on some other achievement.
Byron katie's 4 questions is a useful tool for realising how one's thoughts influence one's emotions. And how you can flip this switch in an instant. Tolle's system works too: just be the witness of your pain body and realise it is not you.
Depression can be lifted through how you hold your body. The fake it until you make it principle. It can also be eased by having a life purpose. Our main purpose is to realise our connectedness.
How much joy or bliss we feel is proportional to the degree to which we feel connected to others and to source. Gratitude is the key to feeling connected.
Heartmath has an excellent breathing exercise: focus on your heart. Breathe through this area. think of something you feel grateful for. expand this feeling into bliss...
