In The Perfect Mirror Adrian Feldmann discusses the Buddhist principles that he adopted whilst he transitioned from Australian doctor to Buddhist Monk (Thubten Gyatso). I am currently reading the chapter on renunciation and here Feldmannn talks about real happiness.
How can you overcome your problems in life? It’s easy. Forget about them by forgetting about yourself, and start thinking about the problems of others. Energise and motivate your life with loving-kindness. Every time you put a smile on somebody else’s face, that gives real happiness.
