First, I think, we need to unpack the word “God.” Some of you reading this post will have no baggage to be carried around about the word “god.” However, others of you may have tremendous bags, loaded with all kinds of meaning: good, bad, indifferent.

Let me develop a singular definition of God for this post, so we are all on the same page at least for this post. God for me is the Cosmic, Universal Consciousness that is the Universe we live in. God is neither male nor female, does not make judgements, loves us all equally, supports and sustains life through unconditionally love. God’s main reason for bringing us into existence is that we might experience on God’s behave. God knows Itself through our experiences. For short, I’ll call God in this post, the Cosmic Consciousness.

Then, I can say that I believe that God can’t have us find happiness unless It, God, is involved. This doesn’t mean that the Cosmic Consciousness imposes Its will upon us. Rather, it means that the invitation to happiness is always open as we find our connection, our bond, with the Cosmic Consciousness. As C. S. Lewis put it, there is no such thing as happiness apart from the Cosmic Consciousness.

Why? Because the Universe is One harmonious entity. Happiness, after all, might be defined as being in complete harmony with oneself. Peace might be defined in precisely the same way – complete harmony within oneself. Complete Harmony is achieved when you resonate with the Cosmic Consciousness. Indeed, quantum physics shows us that all is vibration, literally. Some vibrations are at such a rate that we can see them. But we know there are other vibrations which we cannot see: infrared, x-ray, gamma ray, etc. Even the Earth, the planet upon which we live, have its own unique vibrational identity. To resonate with these frequencies is to set up or generate sympathetic vibes. To be in tune.

When God is defined as unconditional love, then when we would find unconditional love, know unconditional love, we will set ourselves to vibrating at the same frequencies as the Cosmic Consciousness. In other words, happiness is impossible without bond between the Cosmic Consciousness and yourself. This is not to arbitrary; this is not a demand with an “or else” attached to it. This is an invitation to join the on-going, everlasting party!

You can’t be happy unless you include the Cosmic Consciousness. You will be happy, now and always, when your voluntary bond with the Cosmic Consciousness is secured and steadfast from you side. The meaning of life which is to be happy, consists fully of sympathetic vibration with the Cosmic Consciousness.

There is at least one method of getting “there” that cannot be left out of your journey. You are not alone on your road. First there are the road builders – those who have pioneered before you. Then there are the road-maintainers – those who labor to keep the road clear so you can move along it. A subset of road-maintainers are those who paint the lane-lines and put up the signs to give you directions (even when you won’t ask for directions).

Vehicle manufacturers came into play somewhere along the line of your journey. Tire makers, engine-makers, assemblers, painters (even if they are robots these days), inspectors, vehicle haulers, etc.

All these partner with you to get you where you are going. Even beyond these physical types, there are the spiritual types. All the saints and sinners who have passed this way before you, testing the road worthiness of the asphalt you drive over. They’ve been this way and pronounced the route good, bad or indifferent. Those sinners and saints who have tested the spiritual pathways to your own destination. These are ready and willing to gather you into the whole. “No man is an island.” (John Donne) Though you cannot see, nor even have been aware of it before this very moment, you are part of the Big Unit, the Universe. Inseparable for all others.

Simply, and in other words, you are never alone. You are part of a team. When you come to recognize and appreciate this team-concept, you’ll be better off. You stand on the shoulders of countless generations of humans. You are one of the foundation stones for those yet to be born.

So, when you are feeling cut off from all human contact because of crushing circumstances in your life, remember, you are part of a TEAM.

You

by Esporte Clube Pelotas

have not done something that no one else ever has. Your experiences have been repeated time and again by thousands if not millions of people. You are separated, physically, no more than 6 degrees from every other human being. Spiritually you are never and have never been separated from any other sentient being.

Know that the entire team is pulling for you, even if it seems right now that they are not. They are cheering you on because they are in the same game, the Game of Life. To know and practice the meaning of life, to be happy, is to realize you are part of The Universal, Cosmic, Everlasting, Inseparable, TEAM.

The meaning of life is to be happy. But no one ever taught you how. It was simply assumed you knew how, or would learn how as you grew older. The problem was and is, very few people know the techniques of being happy, so they can’t pass them along.

You are not stuck anymore, not knowing how to be happy. I am here to help. You need no tools. You don’t have to buy special clothes or outfits. No special text books or courses. (Although there are lots of good courses on the Internet on how to meditate. Google them.)

Here it is, plain and simple. Yes, as hinted at in the paragraph just before this one, meditation is the technique most needed to find happiness and the meaning of life. It is so simple that some folks will dismiss it out-of-hand. Don’t be one of those. Sometimes the simplest things in life are the most profound and useful.

Let just take one way of meditating. Some have called reflective meditation. Find a quiet place, where the quiet will last for about 15 minutes. Sit comfortably but not so comfortably that you will tend to fall asleep. (Though falling asleep is one of the gentle hazards of meditation.) Then generate a concept in your mind. Let ‘s just use “joy” today.

For about 15 minutes, with your eyes closed, contemplate the concept of joy. What does it mean for you? What does it mean in your life? When was the last time you felt joy? When is the next time you anticipate feeling joy? Do you see how you “roll” it around in your mind, thinking of joy’s many angles and planes. (When you mind wanders, and it will, just gently bring it back to the contemplation of joy. A wandering mind is a natural phenomenon and nothing to be in the least alarmed about.)

I can almost guarantee that when you will do this kind of reflective meditation about 15 minutes each day, you will obtained for yourself one way to find the meaning of life which is to be happy. Here is a short list of other ideas to reflective meditated upon: gratitude, love, playfulness, peace, freedom, energy, humor, calm.

There is Happiness 101 in nut-shell form. Begin your class today. You are being self-taught, self-graded, and self-graduated. You’re on you way to the meaning of life: to be happy.
