Simple rule for happiness

“The fate of the Cart hangs with the horse,

The horse-man has to fulfill the need of the horse hence

To reach his goal in safe and sooner!”

“Thou should please those who care for thee,

Else you will entangle in troubles"
-----     -----     -----     -----

--   excerpt from the poetic collection: “The Nascent Moon”

If you want to be happy at the least you should keep happy those on whom you are dependent. For example, the carts-man has to keep the horse happy in order to have a safe and fast journey. If he fails to keep the horse happy, if the horse is in troubles naturally the journey will not be happy.

The children are dependent on their parents. If the children can keep their parents happy – in turn the parents will keep their children happy. Similarly, the employee has to satisfy his/her employer so that the employer in turn would keep the employee happy. This holds good for any relationship and the Newton’s third law applies here too, how one entity acts on the other will determine how the other entity will react on the first entity.

In order to maintain a happy relationship, the two entities involved should do minor sacrifices in order to make the other entity happy and this is a sort of ‘win-win’ proposal. If it is not there - definitely the relationship would be strained. Trust should be there on each other and respect too should be there. Unless there is trust there is no question of birth of love and unless there is love the relationship can’t be happy. Unless there is happiness – no relationship can continue.

We the people are dependent on the nature. So, if we disturb the nature then naturally nature will disturb us and we have to suffer. What we are doing is the same these days. Knowingly or unknowingly we the people are spoiling the nature in one or the other way. We are polluting the air, water, soil, oceans – and naturally we have to suffer due to this and we are suffering as a consequence. As the famous proverb goes: “whatever you sow that shall you reap”, now a days we are throwing dirt on the nature and as a consequence the nature is pushing us towards problem in different ways – through Earth quakes, foods, tsunamis, draught, over rains, etc.,

So, the simple rule for being happy is to keep others happy. If you spoil the happiness of others, then naturally according to the law of actions [the karma siddhanth of Hinduism], which is similar to the third law of Newton, you will get sorrow and suffering in return.
