Speaker: Tom Morris "Authentic Happiness can only come from the long term cultivation of wisdom, altruism, and compassion, and from the complete eradication of mental toxins such as hatred, grasping and ignorance." These are the words of Matthiew Ricard. A man who, after having his neurochemistry studied, was considered by some scientists, the happiest man on earth. Happiness has never really been accurately defined, nor should it be. We leave it fuzzy for a reason. But if we examine this emotion and our pursuit of it, we can see a collision between the cosmic and the personal world of our own hearts. This Sunday at Friends we’re going to explore the connection between what scientists say is an ever-improving world and our own happiness. If you’re in town, get your butt into the gym!
