Alok, you're ahead of me, you'll see what I mean when you read part 3. That's an important part Mohammad, if all you do is remove problems you just fertilise the ground for more problems. It's like Dan says, it's through growth and raising your consciousness that you increase your happiness. Makes perfect sense, Tom.

IT IS LIKE TAKING BATH IN A LAKE/POND FULL OF WATER HAYACHYNTH, , WHICH IS LIKE WORRIES. YOU REMOVE WATER HAYACHYNTH/FLOATIG WEEDS ( WORRIES ) WITH UR ARMS AND BECOME HAPPY. NEXT MOMENT THE WEEDS OF UNHAPPINESS COME COLSING YOU.MORE MONEY CANNOT MAKE YOU MORE HAPPY , ONE IMPORTANT REASON MAY BE AS U HAVE MORE WEALTH U HAVE MORE WORRY AND TENSION TO PROTECT THE WEALTH.I FEEL THAT ONE WAY OF BECOMING HAPPY IS TO DO RIGHT THING AND BEHAVE TRUTHFULLY TO ALL THE PARTERNS OF UR LIFE IN ALL FIELDS AND TRY TO REAMIN BUSY SO THAT U DONOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO PONDER OVER WHETHER U ARE HAPPY OR NOT.

Contentment with What a person has and enjoying Whatever little or more, GOD his given is the key to Happiness. Take , whatever little or more received as a Gift from GOD and do random acts of kindness, do not criticize, do not be judgemental and try to appreciate and let others take the glory. Believe me you will be more satisfied and feel immense happiness.

Things outside of ourselves are effects. If we don't like the effects, then we have to "go within" to find and change the causes for the effects in our lives. Make sense?
