Because true happiness isn\u2019t found outside; it arises from within. Building on the theme of meaningful relationships, we\u2019re invited to reflect on the real purpose of life. Buddhism teaches that our natural state is one of happiness and lasting peace and joy come from connecting with this nature. From this experience comes the ability to make ourselves and others happy.
