Spirituality: I know what inspires me, supports me and gives me strength.
If you are committed to a spiritual path in your life, you are twice as likely to say you are "very happy," according to psychology research. Spirituality gives you a context for your life that is greater than your ego can see. The ego, which is basically your self-image, is based on an optical delusion of separation. Its outlook is: Everything Good's Outside. A strong spiritual faith helps you to connect to what is real, to what is here now and to what has already been given to you.
A daily spiritual practice that you enjoy doing will help to increase your happiness score. The essential aim of any spiritual practice—be it meditation, prayer, yoga, tai chi, etc.—is to help you remove the blocks to the awareness of the happiness that already exists in the center of you. Spirituality connects you to your "being" so you don't get lost in going, doing and having. It helps you to identify with the idea that the soul is joy, and to realize that you are what you seek.
灵性:我知道什么启迪我,支持我,给我力量。
根据心理学研究,如果你在生命中,踏上一条灵性之路,你说“非常幸福”的可能性是(常人)的两倍。灵性赋予你的生命一个新的视野,它比小我能看到的更宏大。小我基本上就是你的自我形象,它是基于错觉分离的。其观点是:好的都在外面。一个强大的灵性信仰可以帮你和真实的,此时此刻的,以及早已给予你的事物相连接。
你喜欢做的每日灵性练习可以帮助你增加幸福得分。任何灵性练习——可以是冥想、祈祷、瑜伽、太极等等——的基本目标是帮助你扫除通向幸福意识的障碍。这种意识早已存在于你自身深处。灵性让你和你的“存在”连接,这样你就不会在所行、所做、所有中迷失。它帮你认识到灵魂是喜悦的,并意识到你就是你所找寻的。
