Happiness is fugacious, subject to the changes of all things from the weather, mood, surrounding conditions to the size of bank balance. So the perception of happiness differs from individual to individual and society to society depends upon the desire and choice. Some people are pleased when they listen to music – a kind of force to meet the soul to god or nature.
Music itself has number of variations and differentiation based on the society where music is being performed. Indians generally like India Music and remain pleased while listening to it. Some people are so centric listening to music that may be songs, ghazals, bhajans, qawwali, folk songs, music show etc. that even at the time of driving car, motor cycles or bus; they listen to it and remain pleased. In this way there number of other aspects which are regarded as pillars of happiness. But if one talks about real happiness that never dies they have to find it in spiritual aspects not in the material aspects. This is one of the main reasons that even the billionaires after getting lot of stress from their material achievement turn to the spiritualism to find the final solace.
We can recently take the example of Michael Jackson who in his last moment of life converted to Islam who found their happiness in it. Another example we can highlight here so far as happiness is concerned is the giant figure in the world information and technology Mr. Bilgates who after achieving the highest kind of materialism in the field of science and technology started the Billgate Foundation for the charitable work where they find the final solace and a kind of spiritual happiness. In India, we have recent example of Music maestro A.R.Rahman who got Oscar Award for his film music production in Slum Dog who before leaving for USA came here in Delhi to offer Chuddar on the mazaar of world renowned saint and sufi Hazrat Nizam Uddin Auliya to find the spiritual blessing. What does it show, though he has achieved the highest position in the world in the field of music which is itself related to spiritualism but still he finds his happiness after visiting the mazaar? Not only this, there are many figures in the world from the film production who delved in the world of spiritualism.
But for those people, who are tensed with the daily life happenings, and the problems which are an output of circumstances and situation in which they are living, there are certain methodologies which they can practice in their day to day life. Some of the essential tips to remain pleased are: practice mindfulness; laugh out loud; go to sleep; hum along; De-clutter; just say no; make a list; do one thing at a time; garden; tune out the news; take a dog for a walk; scent the air; ignore the stock market; visit a silent place; volunteer; Spend time alone for yoga, ayurveda etc.; walk mindfully; give priority to close relationships; take care of the soul; and count your blessings.
