Lao Tzu - How To Be Happy (Taoism) 

"There is no way to Happiness, Happiness is the way." - Lao Tzu We hope that you enjoyed this video and for more videos to help you find success and happiness using ancient philosophical wisdom, don’t forget to subscribe. Thanks so much for watching.

“Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.” ― Lao Tzu

A wise person once said do not rely on external factors to be happy, but allow happiness to come from within.

“Love is a state of being. Your love is not outside, it is deep within you. You can never lose it, and it cannot leave you.” - Eckhart Tolle

I think taoism is the answer to anxiety and depression.

When you are at harmony within, it will ripple into all other areas of your life.

We should study this in school, I feel there is too much Yang energy in the world at the moment.

“A lion chased me up a tree, and I greatly enjoyed the view from the top.” --Confucius

This morning Sept 01 20 I open RU-vid and find this video. A gift from heaven. I have taken notes and made a plan for living these principles. It's a blessing. And blessed be the man who uploaded this. Million thanks.

Scientifically Proven Ways To Stay Happy All The Time Exercise more. Lots of studies on this one. ... Positive thinking affects your performance. ... Trash your negative thoughts. ... Treasure your experiences more than your possessions. ... Write down why you are grateful. ... Practice mindfulness. ... Don't forget your beauty sleep. ... Dedicate a little time to helping others

When Laozi said "A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving", he pretty much summed up how our happiness works and shows how the way our brains work contradicts our normative belief in happiness. Jonathan Haidt's Happiness Hypothesis is a good starting place to look further into the topic of happiness and see what multiple scientific research reports have to say in support of Laozi's statement!

Happiness is not a destination it is a way of life 💞🙏💞

“Nord VPN hides your IP address and encrypts your data for just $3.71/month” -Lao Tzu

Happiness is not a goal, its a way of life. Live your life as if it were your last.

"It's not that you have a lack of resources but a lack of resourcefulness." - Tony Robbins

Balancing the life with resources treating them equally but without desire

good lesson,There is no way to Happiness, Happiness is the way." - Lao Tzu

Taoisme is the way for most! Happiness is the realization of the dreams that we made when we were very young!

Hi, I am a Malaysian Chinese. The sacred scriptures Tao De Jing was written in olden Chinese Language. I learned some of the verses during my secondary school in Chinese Language. Sometimes I wondered why western people know Lao Tze better than me. So, I started to learn Lao Tzu in English and not in Chinese. To my surprise, I found out there are some sharp insights when I learned Lao Tze in English. The text in olden Chinese Language in quite vague and sometimes ambiguous, in my point of view. Nevertheless, it may be due to the cultural differences between the western and the East. When I was in my secondary school, I also learned the history background when the scripture was composed. Lao Tzu, was one of a prominent scholars and library keeper during Zhou Dynasty which ruled over China for almost 800 years. Zhou Dynasty is popular for her eminent I Ching philosophy and the pi, the ratio of circle's circumference to diameter. After the fall of Zhou Dynasties, China was in chaos times and the times were regarded by historians as Spring Autumn Era and Three War Kingdom before the Great Emperor Shih Huang Di built the Great Wall of China. Confucius was born during Spring Autumn Era. Confucius learned I Ching when he was about 50 years old and at that time, he found life was miserable and couldn't be employed by any official jobs. Some studies said that Confucius met Lao Tze before he composed the Ten Wings of I Ching, as the complementary to the Zhou Dynasty 's I Ching. The book of Analects was not written by Confucius, however , was composed by some of his disciples who jotted down his sayings before he died. Why I address the history here? Because Lao Tzu, Confucius, Mencius, Mo Zi, Gui Gu Zi, Zhu Ge Liang generates different views, perspective and ideas based on the hexagrams in I Ching.They are co-related.

Don't let anything or anyone make u happy ❤️🙏

“So what about happiness? Happiness is of two varieties: There is the happiness in the moment, which is the result of fun and play and, on rare occasions, true recognition of another person. Then there is happiness of an enduring nature, which is born of your satisfaction that your life is truly engaged. It is perhaps not as spectacular a happiness. You do not go around laughing all day, but it abides with you. No matter what happens to you or to the world, you have found your place, you have found your way, and there is a very great certainty that your way will lead you on.” *Wisdom from the Greater Community, Book 1*

Man, 8 ads in 17 minds is too much.

Good stuff. Thanks so much. ✌ to all.

Thanks for this informative video

Beautiful!

Great video! I need to watch it again!

I learn a lot thanks Godbless!!

As an Asian guy, I've spent half of life in Asia and half in Western countries. In comparison, I personally think that generally Asian people care more about what others think of themselves.

Very powerful...

I still think about criticism that those who really want to help you, because they love you (love means understanding and accepting it in their reality, not yours) will not criticize you as a person and will criticize the action and eventually they will help you as much as they can not to make the same mistake a second time. Narcissistic schizoids will criticize the person, which is a reproach, leading to a poor self esteem of that person they try to ,,help"

Gratitude is the secret to happiness❤️🙏selfhelpchampion

Thanks

There are so many religious beliefs and ideas on how to be happy and how to live in accordance with nature... so many humans agree YET nobody is happy! I do not know anyone who is happy, content, balanced. Nobody truly helps others or do anything positive with their lives except focusing on their own selves.

wonderful

13:32 wearing headphones scared me so badly man

A wise man once said “Your haters words are your egos mirror.”

I think the ultimate zen masters were the Three Stooges. Empty-headedness is greatly underrated!😄lol

Wonderful 🙏

I say：Pursuing happiness, happiness is not there. Don't know what happiness is, it's there.

Very useful❤

Lovely

These sporadic ads are messing with my Qi

Hi. Watching your videos has been a part of my daily routine for over month now. May I suggest getting other people to do the voice over in some of your future videos? I think it will encourage your viewers more to watch consecutive videos considering the length of time you put into each of them. I’ll continue watching a video a day tho. That is only a suggestion. ☺️

Great video 👍❣️😍👍😁 XOXOXO LOVE YOU

good idea

Everything must be balance like working hard at the same time taking care of self too must be no worries positive thinking contented in life serene and humaitariam deeds and empathy 🇸🇽🇺🇸

“Grieve thou not over the troubles and hardships of this nether world, nor be thou glad in times of ease and comfort, for both shall pass away. This present life is even as a swelling wave, or a mirage, or drifting shadows. Could ever a distorted image on the desert serve as refreshing waters? No, by the Lord of Lords! Never can reality and the mere semblance of reality be one, and wide is the difference between fancy and fact, between truth and the phantom thereof. Know thou that the Kingdom is the real world, and this nether place is only its shadow stretching out. A shadow hath no life of its own; its existence is only a fantasy, and nothing more; it is but images reflected in water, and seeming as pictures to the eye.” - Abdu’l-Baha

Taoism and Stoicism have so many things in common, I wonder why

Excellent video. Life isn’t always black and white though; sometimes it’s grey. Take people for example. How do you handle the grey areas successfully in order to bring goodness and happiness? Many thanks :)

Very interesting!

Nice Videos

Happiness is *UBUNTU*... Harmony within & outside is true happiness.. It is practiced sans greed, hatred & ignorance, world would be at peace.. that is why Tao is Universal oneness.. no conflicts.. no duality you and me is one... says Bhagwan Buddha's Lotus Sutra..!

talking about criticism, i would rather have more/more detailed characters or a blank screen, i can appreciate this is free but either give it your all or as little as needed, both are good.

having adverts on a already supported video isn't very Tao

How.China developed . Like these great people advices ! Nature . Family . Environment friendly . Kindness human relationship. From Tamil Nadu South India

Saint pio said don't worry be happy juat trusted God no matter what'

☯ LOVE

This is good stuff. It's themes are repeated in the bible, Christianity, stoicism and Buddhist teachings. Even Jordan Peterson teaches much of this. This is the basic truth... nothing that we haven't heard before.

"The path to happiness is bypassing region locks " -Lao Tzu

time, TIME is the most valuable resource because you live in time. If you don't know this or learn this early on you will on your death bed only the it will be too late as you would have squandered your time in meaningless pursuits.

Only on this channel only.

Happiness comes, when you Discover the DIFFERENCE, between "LIFE The Real Self", and the human PRIMATE.

"Be happy, by NordVPN" - Tao

7:40 and 8:15 click, listen, repeat

Yeah

Just because someone criticises you doesn't mean they are right, and that you should change accordingly and be thankful. Their comments about you may be driven by jealously or envy or just plain wrong. As for the Yin/Yang theory of health and illness - I think that's best filed under "historical views that were wrong" along with the theory of the "4 humours". For the rest of it - basically, Laz Tzu says moderation and the golden mean in all things is best. Just like Aristotle and practically every other philosopher except for Nietzsche who was all about excess and squeezing the life juice to the max.

Taoism is a paradox, there is some clashing in this philosophy. Like aren't those who seek a rewarding life and give to receive more than others in the end, are just as greedy as the takers? Those who take actually receive the least in return, and they are the true students and have the most potential for 'growth' in this philosophy, ignorance is avoidance of experience.

XOXO 😘 THE WAY! 8)23/2020

The word

Ohhh I learned my mistakes. Being too nice that was my mistake. This philosophy would apply to more bad people not the nice ones.

Confucious say "Knickers not the best thing in the world - but next to it!"

How to feel happy? simple. You feel happy when you are happy. So, feel happy all the time. Scientifically, allow your cells feel happy all the time. Any question?

❤️❤️❤️
