The Journey Within: Finding True Happiness
What if everything you believed about happiness was fundamentally wrong? After emerging from a four-year meditation retreat in 2009, Buddhist monk Gelong Thubten was struck by how dramatically the world had accelerated-smartphones everywhere, people constantly distracted, stress levels soaring. Drawing from his extraordinary journey from Oxford-educated actor to Buddhist monk, Thubten reveals a profound truth: happiness isn't a fleeting sensation to chase but a skill we can cultivate through mental training. This isn't just spiritual theory-it's backed by neuroscience showing we're literally "hardwired for bliss." The problem isn't that happiness eludes us; it's that we've been looking in all the wrong places, chasing external circumstances when the true source lies within. What would change in your life if you discovered that lasting happiness was already available to you, requiring no outside conditions to be met?
