Wishing others to be happy is the key to our own happiness

Our problems and unhappiness are all created by our uncontrolled desire (wishing ourselves to be happy all the time). If we wish for others to be happy all the time, then we will not experience problems or unhappiness ourselves. To do this we must learn to control our mind; principally our uncontrolled desire.

More information on this subject can be found in the books How to Transform Your Life and Modern Buddhism.
