To be happy is not difficult as one need to transform the knowledge of knowing to being......

Can anyone deny the fact that they are not searching & living for their happiness and removing sorrow & pain from their life? But have they really understood the true definition of sorrow or happiness and are they positioning them accordingly?

Even if they have understood the meaning of what is happiness and sorrow in verbatim and literatim,You need not search the secret of happiness as it is very simple Articles if they fail to position themselves accordingly, their effort will not give the right or desired result.

A diabetic person eating sugar is not good for health and hence he or she should refrain from eating sugar or sugar rich foods.  They should understand that their happiness lies in choosing and eating sugarless products and avoiding sugared foods.

Just by knowing the implication of eating sugar rich food will never offer any good to them.  They should programme themselves in such a way as sugared products will breed sorrow and sugarless products will offer happiness.  Only when they learned to derive pleasure and happiness from sugar free products they can find real happiness. 

Instead of positioning properly, if they feel sad for their inability to eat sugar rich food like others or eat such products out of temptation, they will have to face the consequence of such actions. 

Knowing about what is good and bad is one level and programming and following or practicing what one knows is another level.  Just by knowing or accepting will not be enough and one has to follow what they know and have accepted very righteously.

The sorrow of large number of corporate people is not due to the lack of knowledge or acceptance.   Despite knowing and accepting what they know to be true and right, they fail to follow or practice.  When some dis-connect is created between knowledge and what one is expected to follow or practice, the result will be very bitter and unpalatable.  Often they blame the ill-luck or fortune for their misery.  It was only their action that had led them to the tyrannical end.

Unless one transform the knowledge from the knowing level to the being level and follow it, one cannot find happiness.   

The source of our sorrow is nothing but our inability to accept the reality despite knowing it to be as real.  It is not bad to have such gap between knowing and following, but certainly in the pursuit for happiness, the gap needs to be minimized. 

It is like jumping from one wall to another and is possible only when the distance between the two walls is minimum or at a manageable level.  If the gap between the two walls is high, one may fall into the gap and such gap or space is only called sorrow or tyranny.     

Operate from being level and not from just knowing level.
