Happiness Is Within Us

Being happy is the great desire of human beings and, therefore, happiness is a hotly debated topic. Unfortunately, a large part of humanity associates happiness with the conquest of material goods. Having a luxurious and comfortable residence, a car of the year, a good job or a high position in public administration and in the private sector are significant examples. When one doesn’t get what one wants, the person feels frustrated, unhappy.

Nor is happiness the absence of difficulties, the usual setbacks that everyone goes through in life. So we ask, “Where is happiness?” And we answer, with absolute certainty, that happiness lies within the person himself, as he is a spirit in possession of a human body, and is revealed in the proper fulfillment of his duties, understood here as evolutionary spiritual objectives, precisely those planned in their respective astral plane of training and performed on the physical plane through the improvement of natural attributes and the use of spiritual faculties chosen for this purpose. Ultimately, happiness lies in spirituality.

However, happiness should not be seen as a belief to be embraced with faith, but a certainty based on conviction about the importance of studying spirituality, knowledge of evolutionary laws and the application of these teachings in everyday life, as the person who practices goodness, respects others and walks straightly along the path of honesty is happy, no matter if he goes through difficulties or does not even have material goods other than those necessary for survival. Unresolved existential problems and unfulfilled material ambitions are two strong motivators for someone to consider themselves unhappy, if they do not know the value of spirituality that Christian Rationalism defends in its concepts and principles.

If happiness lies in spirituality, it cannot be bought, because its high moral value is priceless. Happiness is an achievement that requires work, dedication and commitment from the person who intends to be better every day by connecting with elevated thoughts to the Superior Forces and, consequently, benefiting from the positive vibrational currents that cross in all directions through the Earth’s fluidic atmosphere.

Evidences of unfavorable vibrational currents running through the dense fluidic field that surrounds the Earth are the many difficulties that humanity has been going through in the last three years, given the harsh pandemic that reached everyone, and that still lingers here and there with more or less intensity, and the maintaining of a war for geopolitical reasons, facts that caused physical consequences and psychological disturbances in thousands of people, in addition to economic and commercial imbalances of global scope, which will probably continue for a long time.

The world headquarters of Christian Rationalism and the other Christian Rationalist houses were also affected by this state of affairs during the period of greatest intensity of the pandemic, when they had to close their doors to the public. But, intelligent solutions were soon found to keep the union of militants and attendees cohesive by promoting spiritualist activities with the use of digital technologies, on the initiative and under the leadership of the president of Christian Rationalism.

As we celebrate one more anniversary of the founding of Christian Rationalism in its already centenary existence, in addition to emphasizing the ease with which people can conquer the happiness they seek by being within themselves if they open the door of spirituality in their lives, we also want to express our spiritual happiness when we see that the Christian Rationalist philosophy has been disseminated and practiced more widely in face-to-face and virtual activities, with the aim of strengthening, enlightening and spiritualizing a growing number of people locally and worldwide.
