How to Be Happy in Life ?

Questioner: What are the means to make life virtuous (saatvik) and simple (saral)?

Dadashri: Keep on giving people whatever you have with an obliging nature. Your life will gradually become virtuous automatically. Have you ever had an obliging nature? Do you like the obliging nature?

Questioner: I have, to a certain extent!

Dadashri: If you have it to a greater extent, then you will benefit more. Just continue to oblige people. Get someone’s work done, run errands for others, donate money, have two sets of clothes stitched for a less fortunate person; oblige others in this way.

The Lord says, “Use your mind, speech and body and the applied awareness as the relative self (pratishthit atma) for the sake of others. Then, should any kind of misery come to you, let me know.”

Religion in fact begins with having an obliging nature. When you give something of yours to others; that is indeed where happiness lies. Instead people are learning to take! Do not do anything at all for yourself. Do [everything] for others only, then you will not have to do anything at all for yourself.

Related Science:

1) A person whose intentions are to serve others will be rewarded with worldly happiness; and the one who has intentions to hurt will be punished with worldly unhappiness. However, the Self cannot be attained through serving others. Until one attains the Self, one should maintain an obliging nature.

2) If you spend for your self, it will go into the gutter (go to waste). If you spend for the welfare of others, it will help you in your future life.

3) Nature's law is such that if you give the fruits of your own efforts to others, nature will take care of you. That is the hidden science.

4) What is the nature of the worldly life? God resides in every living being and if you hurt anyone, even in the slightest degree, you violate your moral duty, your religion (dharma). If you Help Others, religion will be there. This will bring you what you desire. The fruit of hurting others (adharma) results in pain (dukh) and your desires will not be fulfilled.
