Synopsis

Arguing that spirituality is not about religion but about living happily, this guidebook offers advice on the skills of the inner life—the mind and emotions—that are needed for a life of gladness. This examination discusses the requirements for happiness, explores their nature, and shows that mastering a set of five of them leads to bliss. The exercises in this resource are offered to spiritual seekers as a path towards happiness and emphasize that personal elation is not caused by external events, but by mastering the skills of the inner life.
