Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: To be a happy person, you must not be passive or lazy. You must take an active hold upon life if you would possess happiness. You must not place your trust in others to make you happy. You need to find happiness beyond the world of effects, the world of personality, the world of phantoms.
Where should you turn? Within yourself. The royal road points in that direction.
