There’s an old Chinese saying proverb: “If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help someone else” Happiness, peacefulness and emotional fulfilment are within our grasp but we need to know where and what to reach for. The overwhelming message of the world we live in is that all these personal qualities and more can be reached through the one-eyed pursuit of fame, fortune and beauty. However, the persistent finding in a growing body of contemporary research, which in fact exactly mirrors the ancient wisdom of the Yoga movement, is that the pursuit of these mundane goals doesn’t actually lead to happiness but rather, the opposite is likely and suggests that altruism — a selfless concern for others and for the community — may pay off in a way that fame and fortune etc won’t and can’t. It seems that the more we turn our focus from our individual self interests and widen our concerns to embrace the welfare of others and society as a whole the better off we and those around us will be! Join Nityananda Das and Jayadharma das in very casual, unscripted yet thought provoking discussion exploring the idea of where to find Happiness. They will be discussing this subject from a spiritual perspective and also referring to the teaching of ancient yoga texts such as the Bhagavad Gita and saintly teachers. Jayadharma das and Nityananda das has been a long time practitioner of kirtan meditation and bhakti yoga for over 20 years having learned this science from the renowned Yoga Master Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda.

Easter Sunday Ukulele Kirtan on Rainy Day – Skinny Love Cover
Some nice cozy kirtan on a rainy day. It’s a good time to remember and glorify the teachings of Lord Jesus Christ. There is complete harmony between the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita and teaching of Lord Jesus Christ. So we respect Lord Jesus Christ as one of our Guru or spiritual master. When asked “Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?”, the Gospel of Mark reports that Jesus answered, “He said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the greatest and first commandment” before also referring to a second commandment, “And the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.” 00:01:50 – Kirtan Starts 🙂 00:12:32 – Ukulele Chords and Strumming Mantras: Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Ukulele Chords: (Am F C) x 3 Dm F / Am C
