The basic principle of happiness

This post is part of an article on Islam and the Happiness Revolution, the contents page for which is here:  http://islamandthehappinessrevolution.blogspot.com/p/contents.html

The truth is what you have been running away from all your life. Be brave. The truth is not comfortable, even when you accept it, it will mean hard work, but you will be free. You will see beauty. You will see the world with new eyes. Be brave. Be honest. Be humble, because your pride has made you miserable and robot like. Your pride has filled you with fear of other's opinions, of doing what you want to do, of what you really want to be like. I give you this long build up in the hope that there may be a chance you will read on when you read the truth. That you will have a tiny bit of patience to keep reading so that I can explain further. Here it is:

God. The world is as it is because it has forgotten God.

Let me explain. Religion has been hijacked by politicians, who call themselves Monks, Gurus, Priests, Rabbis and Imams. They use their followers as property, less interested in their welfare than in controlling them.

There is hope though. The world is already uniting, it was always going to happen. We have only a few years to go.

Why is God the solution, why does it matter if we forget God or not? Does God even exits? Why does God not do anything to solve the problems of the world?

We already know the answers to all these questions. We run from them because we think first about what would make our lives easy now, not what would make us all happy tomorrow. The truth is within us, quiet, under the racket that is greed, anger and hate. The answers to those questions? Why does not God just solve everything? Beauty is in us being transformed so that we solve it. Does God exist? Yes, we know God exists, just as the computer in front of you has a creator. The most famous scientists ever know, Newton and Einstein, believed in God, because every bit of the world shouts out "I have a creator." Yet there are a few he say God does not exist, think, who are these people? Finally, why do we need to remember God? Because there is a life  out there, we can barely comprehend it because we barely know life. We have wings yet we crawl, rubbing our faces along the ground because we don't even know we have legs. And God is the light, brilliant as a star, who brings us out of every kind of darkness and into light.

When we deny God, we deny the first brick of truth. After that, excepting one truth will not save you because it will only be a half truth, detached from the bit that matters. We are spiritual beings far more than physical. Why is it that we seem to need more than food and sleep to be happy? What is this thing called love? It is the attraction of our soul to the Exalted Being. When we forget God we begin to live a lie, one lie on top of the other. You drink alcohol because you suffer. You drink alcohol because the reality you have created makes you miserable.

God has always taught us the path of peace. Each religion was from God. But then it was hijacked by our egos, and we forgot God. Islam is nothing but the a path to God. Islam reminds us that we all from God. We are all one. God has again brought to us a Reminder, the Spiritual Reformer of the Age, prophesied by all religions of the World, clearly in their books, know to their followers:

and a clip I like from V from Vendetta (it shouldn't be a surprise from you that truth is all around you, we humans, are by nature light and emit truth, however much we bury it):
