- No living being ever grows tired of pursuing happiness. From dawn to dusk, and birth to death, every soul continuously desires to be happy.
- Religions declare that the 'land of happiness' is somewhere out there, and that it can be reached by performing certain rituals, worshiping certain deities, and doing good deeds.
- Bhagavad Gita states without any ambiguity, that the 'state of happiness' is not a place to go to, but rather an evolved state of awareness. No action can give a permanent result to anyone, so one must learn to live in the present moment.
- The practice of meditation leads to self-abidance is the 'abode of happiness', since it is within oneself and cannot be provided by others.
