The Buddha often transcends worldly matters, overlooking the warmth and coldness of the world and understanding the laws of happiness in the mortal realm. This book takes this as its starting point, using the wisdom of the Buddha to seek our own laws of happiness. Some are optimistic, while others are pessimistic. In reality, this is not about differences in the external world but rather in how people approach life. Some are happy, while others are unhappy. In truth, happiness is a feeling, and there is no universal standard for it. Some are joyful, while others are sad. In reality, joy does not depend on what you possess but on how you perceive what you have. Everyone can attain happiness, as long as they have the seed of happiness in their hearts, it will bloom into beautiful flowers. Using simple language and common examples, the book presents the profound and difficult-to-understand life philosophies in Buddhist principles in an easy-to-understand manner, offering a fresh perspective on a happiness law that can benefit us all.
