Material wealth is not the answer. We live in a materialistic society, but seriously, an excess of material goods does not bring the sort of long-term contentment, that genuine feeling of satisfaction and peace, that is the foundation for a happy life. For rich and poor alike, the desire to have more, newer, better, fancier stuff seems to be a fact of human nature. So it is important to know and understand that the unceasing pursuit of material goods can destroy one’s sense of contentment.

Pursiuit of happiness?

The happiness is state of mind and it is internal. Pursuit of external happiness is like chasing a mirage. External happiness is only momentary and quickly overshadowed by doubts, and worries for example. Internal happiness or bliss is achieved through developing self awareness and living in the present moment. Non attachment to worldly, materialistic achievement can bring the internal happiness, nevertheless. The internal happiness that is once achieved is not only everlasting, but most satisfying experience. Material and non material attachments bring sorrow, sense of loss, greed, for example. These negative emotions are detrimental to our eternal happiness.
