/////////////RATHER CONTENT THAN HAPPY - SLF


///////////////SWAST OVER SUKH

///////////////M Ricard, “Happiness is a state of inner fulfillment, not the gratification of inexhaustible desires for outward things.”


/////////////..........“Sadness is not incompatible with happiness because happiness is not just a pleasant sensation. Sadness can help you feel compassion. Even when you are sad, you can continue to do wonderful things.”



///////////////DEFUEL ANGER=Ricard states, “Anger is a destructive emotion, which reduces us to puppets.”. Instead of identifying with the anger, we recognize that we are not the anger, just as we know that clouds are not the sky. “You don’t just want to suppress it [anger] or you’ll be like a time bomb. Instead, you look at your anger and let it vanish. When you cease to fuel a fire, it slowly dies out.”



/////////////////////“Meditation is not just blissing out under a mango tree. It completely changes your brain”. However, says Ricard, “Happiness is a skill and it requires time and effort”.

Over time, this adds up to change in the direction of adaptation, of design-like features.

///////////////............ the increased delivery of oxygen and critical nutrients is the fundamental explanation. There is no objective that should be ascribed, such as making us better able to make good decisions in critical situations - it's simply a matter of having increased volumes of consumable resources available to brain tissue that generally enhances performance. Increased production of hormones such as adrenaline also likely have beneficial effects that may be more objective oriented.

////////////////////////........For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death
Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a piece of shit
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true.
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

And always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the right side of life...
(Come on guys, cheer up!)
Always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the bright side of life...
(Worse things happen at sea, you know.)
Always look on the bright side of life...

(You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the right side of life...”

////////////////////////////At least one way of measuring the freedom of any society is the amount of comedy that is permitted, and clearly a healthy society permits more satirical comment than a repressive, so that if comedy is to function in some way as a safety release then it must obviously deal with these taboo areas. This is part of the responsibility we accord our licensed jesters, that nothing be excused the searching light of comedy. If anything can survive the probe of humour it is clearly of value, and conversely all groups who claim immunity from laughter are claiming special privileges which should not be granted.”

/////////////////////////ONLY THE LONEY- S FRY
HAMLET=
To be, or not to be: that is the question: Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep; No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to, ’tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep; To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub; For in that sleep of death what dreams may come When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause: there’s the respect That makes calamity of so long life; For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, The oppressor’s wrong, the proud man’s contumely, The pangs of despised love, the law’s delay, The insolence of office and the spurns That patient merit of the unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death, The undiscover’d country from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all; And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pith and moment With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action… -

MEMENTO MORI, EMPATHY AND DISGUST

/////////////////////Empathy probably started out as a mechanism to improve maternal care," saysFrans de Waal, a primatologist at Emory University and author of The Age of Empathy. 



///////////////EVO REASON="Mammalian mothers who were attentive to their young’s needs were more likely to rear successful offspring."


/////////////SCIAM=These offspring were, in turn, more likely to reproduce, so being able to sense another’s feelings was beneficial because it helped mammals to pass on their genes—the ultimate prize in the game of life. Mammalian males also show empathy, de Waal says, because “the mechanism spread from mother-offspring to other relations, including friends."



///////////////.......From a mechanistic standpoint, some researchers believe that a specific type of neuron—called a “mirror neuron”—might be a key to empathy. These neurons fire both when an individual, carries out an action and when that individualwatches another perform the same action




/////////////////SCIAM= Researchers have shown that oxytocin, made in the hypothalamus, is involved in human trust, bond formation, generosity and, of course, empathyOne 2010 study, demonstrated that men feel more empathy toward crying children and grieving adults after receiving an aerosol shot of oxytocin compared with a placebo. 




///////////////“The ability to ‘read’ another species’ emotions underlies all successful domestication of animals,” she says. “If you are going to take a wild animal into captivity, you have to have a tremendous understanding of what that animal needs.” Shipman 




////////////////............disgust is the voice in our heads that tells us to avoid things—foods and animals—that could harbor “disease-like bodily emanations.” Rats definitely fit that bill.  



//////////////////....SCIAM=And when it comes to short-term survival, disgust is often the strongest feeling, Haidt says. We might prefer to think of ourselves as compassionate—a quality that aids long-term survival—but when we find ourselves in potentially life-threatening situations, our immediate desire to keep on living, often expressed through disgust, tends to win out.  



////////////////...........From the greek-axial period, i.e., from 2500 years, until today, the most dangerous source of damage to mankind is the man himself, rather than rodents.

In fact I am happier than i ever was...........have strong intellectual and cultural interests and I pursue them regularly, even having pleasant chats at some with strangers (whom I prefer to keep strangers). I have no serious health problems and if i do I don't know about them because I don't go to doctors (Medicare must love me, I cost them nothing and I pay each month). Th males in my family drop dead suddenly, perfectly fine minutes before. I am cheerful that this is the way I will go. I've prepaid for my cremation. I suppose one of my relatives will have to be bothered to claim the body but otherwise all is set. I actually like my relatives but I don't live anywhere near them and I have never liked phone or internet relationships (even when I was very social, face to face). And I never could stand talking about the past or making or listening to complaints.

CRAVING, CLINGING ANDTHE ART OF LETTING GO

/////////////////////Don't Quit: A poem by Edgar A Guest

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
- Edgar A. Guest

///////////////Don’t let schooling interfere with your education-Mark Twain




/////////////////When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ― John Lennon



////////////////Dalai Llama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, said: “ Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”



//////////////////In fact, anger and sadness are an important part of life, and new research shows that experiencing and accepting such emotions are vital to our mental health. Attempting to suppress thoughts can backfire and even diminish our sense of contentment. 'Acknowledging the complexity of life may be an especially fruitful path to psychological well-being,' says psychologist Jonathan M. Adler."



///////////////////////BT.........Rather than associating happiness with hedonism, an approach that elevates pleasure above all else, a eudaemonic outlook recognizes the importance of meaning, personal growth and understanding the self. Practicing psychotherapist Tori Rodriguez encourages her patients to adopt this point of view: "Instead of backing away from negative emotions, accept them. Acknowledge how you are feeling without rushing to change your emotional state. Many people find it helpful to breathe slowly and deeply while learning to tolerate strong feelings or to imagine the feelings as floating clouds, as a reminder that they will pass."
