In times of financial uncertainty, it’s easy to feel gloomy as we cut back on luxuries we’ve become used to. But should we feel negative? Buddhists understand that lasting happiness comes from within. Worrying about the past and the future causes us problems; however, this preoccupation obscures opportunities for happiness now!

Lama Ole Nydahl explains how meditation provides insight into The Art of the Moment. Here we rely on and work with what the credit crunch can’t take away, the richness of our own minds! Happiness is experienced by mind, not cars or money, so understanding mind is the most important thing.
