He did not in anyway imply that being rich in and of itself leads to happiness. Atanu, a non sequitor: I've seen you reference quite a bit of Bertrand Russell. I am curious about your thoughts on religion and/or God, and whether they jibe with Russell's anti-religious polemics. Triya, you misunderstood Atanu’s comment; you should re-read it.

Even Adam Smith knew that (Theory of Moral Sentiments, Liberty Fund edition, page.181). It used to madden me that lots of things that are part of Indian culture are touted as being newly discovered by Western Scientists. Now I bow to them for marketing it. :) Love your blog!!

Each person is responsible for one self happiness. There is no need to blame others or to expect to receive Happiness from others. I discovered recently that Buddhism is not a religion but a philosophy that explains a wise way of thinking and living. I totally agree with these! Each person is responsible for one self happiness.
