Buddha says "We will have to find out the cause of sorrow and the way to escape from it. The desire for sensual enjoyment and clinging to earthly life is the cause of sorrow. If we can eradicate desire, all sorrows and pains will come to an end. We will enjoy Nirvana or eternal peace. Those who follow the Noble Eightfold Path strictly, viz., right opinion, right resolve, right speech, right conduct, right employment, right exertion, right thought and right self-concentration will be free from sorrow. This indeed, O mendicants, is that middle course which the Tathagata has thoroughly comprehended, which produces insight, which produces knowledge, which leads to calmness or serenity, to supernatural knowledge, to perfect Buddhahood, to Nirvana”.

While struggling with any condition causing mental and physical DIS-ease, it is important to remember the exceptional healing power of the mind. Unfortunately, we often tend to concentrate more on the gripping power of the illness or addiction than on the possibility of recovery, thus permitting the problem to become both a mental and a physical habit. Yet each and every thought, be it of depression or happiness, irritation or calmness, anger or serenity, does actually cut subtle grooves in the brain cells and strengthen the tendencies either towards illness or well-being. This subconscious idea-habit of disease or health exerts a strong influence on our entire being. Stubborn mental or physical diseases always have a deep root in the subconscious. That is why developing the habit of strong positive thoughts consciously and repeatedly can react on the mind and the body through the medium of the subconscious, and lead to better health.

there are number ways you can start living happily by some of the ways: Falling in love. Laughing so hard your face hurts. A hot shower. A special glance.
No line-up at the supermarket cash. Getting mail. A thick chocolate milkshake.
Taking a drive along a scenic road. Hearing your favorite song on the radio. Giggling.
A long distance phone call. Lying in bed listening to the rain outside. A nice long bubble bath.
Hot towels fresh out of the dryer. Laughing at an inside joke. Two hours at the beach.
Finding the sweater you’ve been wanting is now on sale for half price. A good conversation.
Finding a $20 bill in the pocket of your coat from last winter. Laughing at yourself.
Midnight phone calls that last for hours. Running through sprinklers. Friends.
Laughing for absolutely no reason at all. Having someone tell you that you’re beautiful.
Falling in love for the first time. Accidentally overhearing someone say something nice about you.
Waking up and realizing you still have a few hours left to sleep. Your first kiss. Sweet dreams.
Playing with a puppy. Making new friends or spending time with old ones. Hot chocolate.
Late night talks with your roommate. Swinging on swings. Road trips with friends. Someone playing with your hair. Going to a really good concert. Making chocolate chip cookies.
Cuddling up on a couch to watch a movie with someone you love. Watching the sunset.
Wrapping presents under the Christmas tree while eating cookies and drinking eggnog.
Hugging the person you love. Watching the sunrise. Making eye contact with a cute stranger.
Song lyrics printed inside your new CD so you can sing along without feeling stupid.
Watching the expression on some one's face as they open a much-desired present from you.
Getting out of bed every morning and thanking God for another beautiful day.
Remembering that many people will walk in and out of your life,
but only true friends will leave a footprint in your heart .
