 I want Happiness

Sun rays trying to touch the ground through crossing peepal leaves, Water running down on uneven stones to produce harmonious sounds, and cool breezes passing. 

Gautama Buddha sat under Peepal, preaching to his disciples about the purpose of life.


One King who came to the forest saw Buddha, approached him, and saluted. 

Buddha said, “Oh! King, I could see agony in your face”.

Hearing this, King replied, “Buddha, I have wealth, health, luxuries. But, I’m not happy”.

And then he asked Buddha “I WANT HAPPINESS”

Buddha: I WANT HAPPINESS, is a boon in which you have to exclude a few traits from your life. 

I resemble to Selfishness and boundaries around yourself, and WANT resembles quantities more than needed. Try to leave these two traits, and see you are only left with HAPPINESS.
