Happiness And Desire

By Jeddu Krishnamurti

Happiness and Desire is a spiritual book written by Jiddu Krishnamurti, a renowned philosopher, and spiritual teacher. In this book, Krishnamurti explores the nature of happiness and desire and their relationship to one another. He argues that true happiness cannot be found through the pursuit of desire and that desire, in fact, often leads to suffering and discontentment. Krishnamurti uses a combination of philosophical inquiry and personal anecdotes to illustrate his points. He encourages readers to examine their own desires and the ways in which they may be limiting their ability to experience true happiness. Throughout the book, Krishnamurti emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment and being fully aware of one's thoughts and emotions. He also stresses the need for self-inquiry and introspection in order to understand the root causes of one's desires and the ways in which they may be hindering personal growth and fulfillment. Overall, Happiness and Desire is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges readers to question their assumptions about happiness and to cultivate a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world.THIS 18 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Life in Freedom, by J.
