The Wealth Rooted in Your Heart

Modern people excessively pursue external material wealth yet remain unhappy; true wealth should be inner spiritual wealth such as wisdom, faith, and love. The Khenpo illustrates through examples of Fuller and the Elder Svastin that inner abundance brings happiness. He proposes methods for achieving inner happiness: diminishing attachment, deeply contemplating impermanence, cultivating virtuous thoughts, and being content with less desire, suggesting everyone learn Buddhist wisdom to tame the mind and achieve true happiness.
