Happiness in Buddhist Philosophy

Abstract

This article in fact tries to define the importance of hapiness. But according to the many realization of the suffering (Dukkha) in the Buddhist philosophy, it does not necessarily refuse or beat the importance of bliss that one person would like to approach. But Buddhist philosophy actually criticizes the suitability of reaching it by pointing out that such bliss could bring the right and sustainable result or not, and it therefore classifies the several types of bliss, as a final consequence, from the mundane state to the transcendental sphere. By the way, as it taught by the Buddha, Buddhist philosophy undoubtedly accepts the self-capability that everyman can reach the several type of bliss - secular bliss to Nirvana. However, the Buddhist bliss directly shades the light on the changeable behaviors more than founding up an ideal concept of human. The Buddha would like human to realize their existence of suffering, because the pain has seen to be an important obstacle of bliss by questioning such pain to introduce the right path to catch the final destination – Nirvana.
