In this heart-opening episode, we sit down with Yeshi Kunga, a radiant monk from Kopan Monastery in Nepal, to explore what true happiness really means. From the Buddhist perspective, we dive into the difference between fleeting joy and ultimate, lasting happiness — the kind that arises not from possessions or status, but from awakening, inner peace, and daily mental cultivation.
Yeshi shares powerful insights on:
- Why chasing external pleasures only brings temporary satisfaction
- The role of meditation as a habit of the heart and mind
- How your internal world shapes your external reality
- The Buddhist view on fitness of the mind, not just the body
What it means to build a “clean mind” as the foundation for a clean life
A humble yet profound reminder that happiness is already within us — waiting to be remembered. The World Happiness Podcast.
A space to remember… That happiness is not just a destination — It is
who we are.
