A visiting journalist from Europe asked, “What is happiness? How do people achieve happiness?”

The Master answered:

True happiness comes from unconditional giving. There is no mental burden when there is no personal agenda. On the contrary, a conditional giving will not make one happy. If one is calculative about how much one has given and looks forward to getting the equivalent repayment, one will not be happy because if the anticipations were not met, the mind would not be at peace.

A giver with unconditional love smiles when the beneficiary smiles. The giver is most happy when people who suffer hardship can have a moment of rest or be able to stand up again. The happiest moment in life is when you feel the joy after giving unconditionally.
