Happiness Is A State Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Happiness Is A State

Rating: 4.6


Happiness is a state of mind
Instantly produced by sense
Gratification through touch, taste,
Sight, hearing and smell the desired.

Happiness is a state of mind
Produced by social interaction,
Love, affection, enthusiasm,
Compassion and patriotism.

Happiness is a state of mind
Produced intellectually
From appreciation of art
And literature and problem solving.

Happiness is a state of mind
Produced at a higher level
In offering, self sacrifice,
Service and devotional works.

Happiness can be subjective
Or of dependent origin.
Happiness is not permanent.
It needs feed for its existence.

Profoundly true poem about how happiness is a condition that takes maintenance- this rings very true and can help people cope with why they are unhappy. He did not include the factor of Trust and feeling trusted in the equation of happiness which I think is of utmost importance and influence.

Great poem. Happiness is a state of mind influenced by many factors so well defined. If we can minimize the effect of those circumstances we can enhance the happy state of mind. Congratulations for member poem place.
