1-Day & 2-Day Online Workshops with P R Sundar
The search for happiness is ultimately a search for truth and wisdom.
: Happiness is equated with wisdom. To have wisdom is to have "measure" or "fullness" ( frugalitas ), avoiding the "want" or "need" ( ) that characterizes an unhappy soul. Role of Monica
Have you read any of Augustine’s works? Do you think a "happy life" is possible without a spiritual foundation? Let me know in the comments below.
: True wealth is wisdom, which Augustine identifies as the "fullness of the soul." In this state, the mind is no longer tossed about by erratic desires but is anchored in the truth. Conversion and the Journey
You might expect a 1,600-year-old Catholic saint to sound stuffy or irrelevant. But On the Happy Life is shockingly practical for the modern overthinker.
One of the most fascinating passages in the PDF text is Augustine’s allegorical reading of Genesis. He notes that God called the work of the fifth day (creating fish and birds) “good,” but only called humanity (created on the sixth day) “very good.”
