Happiness has become the new 'Enlightenment',

When Spiritual Teachers, including myself,

emphasize the importance and the value of happiness,

people start to feel as if something has gone wrong

that only adds unhappiness to Unhappiness.

There is a kind of shame that arises within us

Some of us don't have any idea what Happiness really is

because we can't seem to get life 'right'

We begin to feel like we are karmically destined to suffer.

we feel like we are getting our life right.

we feel like we are getting our life wrong.

So we hold the belief that we *should* be happy

That compounds unhappiness - it perpetuates it.

When we think that we *should* be happy when we're not happy

we start to resist our negative emotions.

I've said it a million times before, and I'm saying it again:

we stay stuck in those negative emotions.

When we become resistant to suffering and to our own unhappiness

the desire for happiness no longer feels good,

because we want something we don't think we can have.

We want happiness but we don't think we can have it.

So we are focused on suffering and on unhappiness.

This may sound odd and like a bit of a contradiction

you are releasing resistance to suffering

in a continually-flowing gale-force wind -

it's as if you're turned against that air current, face-first.

it's hard to move because you're pushing against

you allow the gale-force wind to blow you

Now imagine that this gale-force wind has one prerogative

and that's to take you to everything that you've been asking for,

Now, do you see the benefit of going with the wind?

They tried everything they could think of to get that promotion.

Until, one day, it became so painful to want that promotion

and, instead, they started looking for a new job.

And within hours or days, they got that phone call

Now, it's tempting to think that is an ironic, cruel joke

that's being played by a malevolent Universe.

in the moment that the person gave up on that desire

they released resistance to what they did not want.

And releasing resistance to what you don't want

allows you to flow in the direction of what is wanted.

You can't cause yourself to un-want something.

So the person in this scenario didn't not-want the promotion,

so, even though they still had that desire,

allowed them to release enough resistance

The Universe already knows you want to be happy.

That is the only thing you really ever wanted anyway.
