Joy – the happiness that comes from within

Happiness, joy and bliss are different states of being. Happiness is often fleeting. Moments of it come and go with no control from us but brought on by an exceptionally beautiful view, a good meal, great company etc. All are external factors. Joy comes from within ourselves and can be sustained. Bliss is the next step which is available to us all but few attain.

Joy, the happiness that comes from within by Osho. He talks with humour about attaining joy and bliss. It is a thought provoking read. I found I read a few chapters, then stopped to consider the ideas. Then I read some more chapters. Text inserts of key ideas were good for reminding me of the concepts I had already read about.

Good read, to be recommended.
