What does the word “HAPPINESS” mean?
Our culture says:
• Happiness is to ‘feel good’.
The ancient Greeks say:
• Happiness is EUDAIMONIA
meaning literally ‘a good soul’.To be happy as a
human is to BE GOOD.
Carl Jung –Swiss psychiatrist says:
• “Neurosis is a SUBSTITUTE for LEGITIMATE suffering”.
• NEUROSIS ? neuron + osis
“Neurosis is a substitute for legitimate suffering”
Translation: people become neurotic avoiding PAIN rather
than dealing with it.
