What makes humans happy? Is it the same for every human? Or do we all need different things to be happy? Why are some of us happier than others? Is happiness, or the pursuit of happiness, really a natural right?
Is happiness something you can search for? Or is it something you stumble across while looking for other things? Is it all a matter of chance who is happy?
Is a life lived without happiness necessarily a worthless life? Is a life lived in total happiness possibly a wasted life? Does it make any sense to say ‘I have achieved everything I wanted to do in life but I have never been happy’? or ‘I have never done anything worth doing but I have always been happy’?
Come and discuss this most important subject. Bring your friends and, if you happen to know the Dalai Lama, invite him too.
IM Vulcan Viper, who teaches a meditation class every Wednesday at the GeekSpeak auditorium at 1pm SLT, if you have ideas for new subjects.
