| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the happiness podcast. I'm Dr. Robert Puff. I want to share some amazing stories with you. |
| 0:14.1 | But they may not at first seem like they relate to happiness. I promise you they will. |
| 0:19.5 | So if you can hang in there, I will relate them |
| 0:22.5 | to how we can be happier in our own lives. As humans, we're capable of some amazing feats. |
| 0:29.5 | When it comes to memorization, our skills can be quite astonishing. |
| 0:34.1 | Last year, I was visiting Malaysia, and while I was there, I visited and spent some time at the |

| 1:21.9 | something about her, because you could tell they were very proud of her. She had actually memorized |
| 1:27.0 | the entire Quran from |
| 1:28.7 | the beginning to end, which very few people around the world have ever been able to do. It's an |
| 1:33.3 | amazing feat. But not only did she memorize the Quran, her faith was clearly very important to her. |
| 1:41.1 | And then at a different time, I was in the south of India at an ashram in Teribunamalay. It had been |
| 1:47.7 | the ashram of Ramana Maharshi who was deceased, but they kept the ashram open after he passed. |
