Featured Video: A Happy Life.

[blockquote source=”His Holiness, the Dalai Lama “]“Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.”[/blockquote]

We see a lot of videos featuring the voice of the Dalai Lama, but never before has a film so brilliantly captured the truest essence of his heart.

In this film, His Holiness the Dalai Lama discusses our basic human right to happiness.

From the filmaker, Mojebory:

“I see a harmony in ordinary activities — joy and sadness at the same time. Everything around us is magical. When I take pictures or shots I look at the world through the eyes of a child… everything seems so interesting and unusual! I’m hungry, I want to grab everything!”

The short film draws you in with the Dalai Lama talking about a person’s right to happiness and transitions to Max Richter’s soulful mix of Dinah Washington’s “This Bitter Earth” underscoring more than five years of footage of people in ordinary, everyday scenes in Poland and Europe.

Please take a moment to enjoy this stunning video ~ “A Happy Life” by Mojebory.
