Happiness is a state which everyone everywhere constantly strives for. Here, H.E. Tsem Rinpoche explains in very simple terms what causes our unhappiness. By highlighting our common misperceptions, he shows us how these misperceptions result in us creating our own suffering and how we can change them. With his trademark humour and candour, Rinpoche traverses from ancient Buddhist philosophy to modern psychology, as well as his own personal experience with his teachers and his painful relationship with his mother, in order to show us in the simplest terms how we can truly be happy.
