How to Find Your Soul and be Happy

"The key to happiness is simple: be present."

Happiness only arises when you are engaged in the present moment, just like love. If you reflect on the happiest moments in your life, you will find that you were fully present. This simple fact gives rise to two questions: first, if happiness is this simple, why is life so difficult? Second, why does happiness only arise when we are present?

“How to Find Your Soul and be Happy” explores the nature of happiness and the obstacles that prevent us from achieving it. Discovering a stable happiness means finding your soul, and in finding your soul, you will simultaneously find unshakable happiness. The wisdom of the saints from all faith traditions holds true: “The Kingdom of God is within you” or “You are made up of a substance called love.” This book systematically explores why this is true and provides a process for individuals to discover it for themselves.
